To have friends you must be a friend first

About Me


Pyzam.com has the coolest Layouts for Myspace
I live outside of Atlanta, GA in the town of Duluth. My home is nice but it's always a challenge keeping it straight with 2 dogs (see photos).
I am 48, divorced, fit (I can still bench press 225 at 3 times without a spotter LOL), happy, and secure in my life. My 2 beautiful children are the best thing in my life. My son finished his associates and my daughter just started at WVU. They make me very proud.
I live a simple lifestyle, enjoy the good things and believe that happiness is not bought from any store but must start from the heart. I love a good laugh, to travel, watching sports and movies, and listening to different types of music. Music often reminds me of different times and places in my life some happy and some sad. It's all good though.
Update: I was an engineer for a computer storage manufacturer until I was laid off at the end of May 2008. The work was very satisfying and challenging. Nothing like working on million dollar machines to get your heart pumping. So now I found a new adventure ~~ too bad cause I really loved that company. Now I travel the country teaching the Air Force a new alerting application. Its all new to me and scary but I am facing the fears of something new, reading and studying the material. Getting it down cause its important work.I have a varied background in computer field from a lowly computer operator to my present position. I have worked hard, done the long hours, have traveled for work, dealt with the all kinds; unhappy bosses, owners, managers, customers and colleagues. But I wouldn't trade those experiences for anything. It's what has made me.
Some say I am stubborn, a true Taurus but maybe so but if you are a friend of mine you're a friend for life. My motto "Never burn any bridges you might find yourself running back with your hair on fire". You will always see a smile on my face. Try to be real, be sincere and always take care of yourself. The rest is cake.

My Interests


www.commentbaby.com



My Kids, my family. I like movies for the escape, some politics - I do care what happens to this country and how its being ran, some investing - wish I started earlier, and my dogs, Rodney and Jackson.

I to travel and see the world. My dream would be to retire on a beach somewhere or mountain bike the deserts of north/southwest US.

I love team sports like football and basketball. To me they encapsulates what we all strive in life reaching a goal as a group, doing what it takes for the team to succeed. think about it. It is beautiful on all levels.

I'd like to meet:

..



I born and raised in Maryland and never met any of my parents' family in the Philippines. I think it would be a culture shock for me but well worth it.

People that have positive views that I can learn from. Real down to earth people. People in their prime! Maybe you.

Music:

I grew up going to concerts in the mid-70s and through the 80s. I love live rock music. Back then we'd hitchhike to the Capital Centre and see bands for $4.25. Now you can't barely get a good cup of coffee at Starbucks for that. I remember seeing Bands like Aerosmith, Bob Seger, Nugent, Zeppelin, Kiss,Yes, Black Sabbath and Journey.
