Hello and Welcome to
the worst website I have done to date!
Believe it or not, I
really was a
software developer but rarely had time to work on things like websites.
Mostly I worked on lower level communications code and custom code
currently mostly on linux using "C". I started in the computer field back
in about '82 on Texas Instrument Mid range computers using COBOL, then
PL1 and BAL on IBM mainframes and Tandem using TAL. Moved into VTAM/NCP, reading dumps
and traces in support of the Sears/Allstate/Coldwell Bander/Dean Witter
SNA network. Finally
moving back to code development on AIX and Linux which is the equivalent
of moving from solving problems to creating them ;-)
I thought I would enjoyed the web development
until I had to develop an MDM solution in a framework that made zero
sense to me in PHP and SQL. I realized there were many other
things I preferred to be doing with my time.
As to what I like to
do when I am not coding??? Lot's of stuff in addition to sitting
on my butt watching a movie, the DVR or listening to music.
| Music |
Mostly Ukulele and Bass now days, singing backing vocals for
other musician friend. |
|
Diving |
Which I haven't done in quite some time. I Miss it. Used to go to
Bonaire often till Hurricane Lenny and 9/11. That was when
Motorcycles came back into my life after a long hiatus. .

Woodworking |
Mostly furniture and
projects for friends and family. I would like to get back
to working on and building guitars again. |

Audio-video-philia |
Avid to some degree. In otherwords, money IS an object.
Music and Movies and nice home theater setups are definitely
nice to have.

Motorcycling |
Harleys in
particular... |

Billiards |
A morbid unrelenting
fascination. |
