for the Money by Janet Evanovich. Next in

Grim, called Just Here Trying to Save
a Few Lives: Tales of Life and Death from the ER.

Computer Interests
I've been playing
entirely too many hours of a D&D game called Baldur's Gate and will probably be
playing even more when I buy Baldur's Gate II...
We also had cable internet access installed
recently and I managed to install a LAN to
connect the computers in the house.
Current
Radio Interests
The Western Washington DX Club is sponsoring an informal
competition for it's members to see who can
contact the most countries in the world using
just 5 watts of transmitting power. Details and
current standings are available here.

Biographical Information
I was born in Iowa in 1951
and grew up in Cedar Falls, Iowa. I went to college at
the University of Northern Iowa from 1969 to 1976 (majors
in Teaching English, Teaching History, and Teaching
English as a Foreign Language).
Extensive travel experience
including 18 months around the world at age 21-22. Other
trips since then to Europe, Africa, Mexico, South
America, Southeast Asia, etc. Due to a moral decision I
haven't driven a car since 1972. That might change. Rode
a bicycle from Iowa to Seattle and back to Iowa in 1974.
Currently working as the Executive Assistant for the
Chief Operating Officer at Swedish
Medical Center in
Seattle, Washington.
Married Paula Rodriguez in
1993 and am step-father to Jennifer (currently living in
Chile) and Nicole (currently living in Switzerland). Home
life includes 8 cats...
