Heh.. What a journey. Where do I start? My name is Rick François Withers. I'm part Black/White/Seychellois (Seychelles -- a group of islands in the Indian Ocean) and I was born in Wiesbaden, Germany. As a baby, I came over to the US on a military plane in a shoebox! (No kidding around.. I don't think it was a Nike shoebox though.. Jordan wasn't around yet).
I have traveled to England, Canada, Australia, Spain, and Bahrain (also lived in four different US states) throughout my lifetime. I've enjoyed those days and hope to take a real vacation and go to even more places again one day.
Now I'm currently working as an IT administrator for a TV station in Charleston, SC trying to keep things in order! All I can say is.. I'm the master of little sleep, juggling many things at once, and wiping the sweat from my brow. However, in the end it's rewarding to know I'm part of a place which helps inform a lot of people in the community.
I am also in a great relationship with a beautiful lady who never fails to make me smile.. Debbie.
One thing I enjoy doing besides getting involved in local sporting events is work out. The iron has kept me focused over the years throughout the good times and bad. I believe if you are healthy both mentally *and* physically then nothing can stand in your way!
I'm just a very mellow, friendly, laid-back person. If you don't catch me cheesin (which is rare), then it's probably because I'm too busy trying to make you smile as well. And hey.. if I can give you the shirt off my back.. then I'll try to help out the best I can!
