About Me

Two days after graduating high school, I sent myself off to be one of the few, the proud. Did that for about 5 years and overall it was an OK experience. Got to see and do some stuff I’ll never do again. Best part was the travel, the worst was the games played –i.e. hurry up and wait, can only travel so far on the weekend, listen to me because I out rank you, etc, etc, etc.
While stationed in Yuma, Arizona, I met a sweet-thang, and married her roughly 5 years later. We just had our first child in January, and I must say Fatherhood is the best feeling in the world! These two people are my purpose in life and reason for being who I am today.
After I got out of the service, I took a job at China Lake, California while I tried to figure out what to do with my life. Well, 4 years later, I still live in China Lake –but at least I have somewhat of a plan now.
I finally graduated from Embry-Riddle. Took me only 2 1/2 years for my B.S. I had basically no life outside of family, school, & work. And we now have another baby on the way, due early July. **UPDATE** WE JUST FOUND OUT... IT'S A BOY!! Time to get his room started. Should I go with 'Guns & Ammo' or 'Motorcycles' as the theme? Ahh, the decisions to be made...
After taking off 6 months, I am back in school for some Graduate work. It's been a hard transition back. Course load is half what it was before (thank GOD), but workload is about the same. For some reason, they expect more from you at this level!!
For all MyFriends out there, I am not on here much. I don't want you to think I am rude to you on purpose. I spend 9-10 hours a day with my face glued to 2 computers with a phone in my ear. So when I come home, the LAST thing I want to do are get on another computer or answer the phone. Besides, I've got my baby girl to be playing with!!

My Interests

I live in SoCal, so Motorcycles is a must. I'm also recently getting into camping (with RV's). Is drinking an interest? I love a good merlot and I'll try any micro-brew.

I'd like to meet:


The entire Dave Matthews Band, Trey Anastasio, & Nicky Hayden.

Music:

Dave Matthews, Jack Johnson, Trey Anastasio (best jammer EVER) and Phish, Tim Reynolds, Warren Hayes, Led Zeppelin, The Doors, Sublime, Jimi, Floyd, any jazz... In fact, I'll listen to anything as long as it ain't country.

Movies:

I like war movies, as long as they are accurate, anything with Vince Vaughn, and Jack Black is a genius.

Television:

IF I have anytime left over from school, work, and family, then I like to watch all the roadracing from Moto GP, FIM, and AMA. Before work, I try to get in some Fox & Friends, and I'll try to get to the No Spin Zone.

Books:

Well, If it's printed by Mcgraw-Hill or Jeppesen, I've probably read it already. Recently, I've read some David Bach, Robert Kiyosaki, and Dan Brown.

Heroes:

Not sure I have any. I see success in others, and I might try to mimic their moves. But I wouldn't say I have heros.
