Your computer isn't cool enough to support my cool backround music.

Oh where to start, I was born in Logan Ohio on May 7 of the year 1980, the year MTV was also born if I remember correctly. If it's ok with everyone I'd like to skip past my childhood. Lot of bad shit involving abuse both at home and at school that I'd rather not get into. Let's move to my Junior year of high school where business started to pick up a bit. After finishing every single computer class that my standard high school had to offer and acing each class with flying colors. I decided that a Vocational School would help more than standard education. I went to Tri-County JVS in Nelsonville Ohio for my last 2 years of high school and studied Computer Finance and management. I did this so that when I got out of school I'd be able to budget my money and do my own finances which I must say has helped very much so far in my life.

After graduating high school June 2 1998 with a 3.8 average I took myself a wonderful 15 day vacation and started College at ITT Technical Institute in Dayton Ohio. My course of study was Computer Electronics and Programming at ITT.  College was NOTHING what I expected. I later found out that Technical colleges are far different than standard colleges. They are a HELL of a lot easier than standard colleges. For example, at standard colleges you have about 500 people per classroom and one instructor talking at a mile a min and has 9 boards full of notes and expects everybody to listen to every word he says and write all the notes and be ready for a test/quiz in 48 hours. HA HA HA HA HA HA, it is indeed to laugh about. At tech colleges you have maybe 30 people to a class max (mine was about 10) and the instructors go only as fast as all the students put together and tests are given on what was covered in class and not what was ordered to read and study in a book. I just LOVE the hands on stuff at tech colleges. As you can probably tell I'd highly recommend tech colleges as opposed to those other boring colleges.  But moving on, I spent 2 years at ITT and graduated again with a 3.8 average and earning Graduate with Honors. Indeed graduating college was one of my crown achievements in my life. I will admit I was fighting tears most of the time during the ceremony.  I believe my best smile in a picture is the smile I had on my face in my college graduation pictures.

After graduating June 2nd of 2000 I needed some time to kill until I got enough money saved up to move to Washington. I took it on myself to get into different "after work activities" which were very hard to come by so I soon found myself tinkering with my computer for most of the week. On Saturday, however, I found that the best way to kill time was to make an idiot of myself for 3 hours of the night at The Rocky Horror Picture Show in Dayton Ohio, AKA "The Dayton Affair". Sounds silly, but there's nothing that gives me more pleasure than making people laugh. I developed a fair amount of friends there and found myself sufficiently occupied for the 2 years I needed to save money.

Then, two years later I was off to the next phase of my master plan. On June 1 of 2002 I packed up all my belongings and migrated myself over to the wonderful state of Washington. Now by now your asking yourself, "Why would he pack his life away and leave all his friends family and loved ones to move across the country?" I answer by giving you 3 good reasons. Reason number 1  I've lived in Ohio all my life and quite frankly....I strongly disliked Ohio and I wanted OUT!!. Washington was as far away from Ohio as I could get and still be a United State Citizen...with the acception of Hawaii, but I've always thought that Hawaii was a place to visit and never a place to live so I'll leave that at that. Reason number 2  If you haven't visited Washington yet I strongly recommend it. Washington is a VERY beautiful place to visit. There is a link in my bars called "My current home" that will show you just some of the beauty of Washington. I felt that I would love to see that beauty as often as possible. Reason number 3.  Washington is very high off the ground. So high in fact that my nasal passages are completely cleared of dust and debris. In Ohio I had a constant stuffy nose...while in Washington my nose is as clear as a bell, so that reason is more of a health thing than anything else. There of course are other reasons why I needed to move out of Ohio and into Washington but I'm probably already starting to bore you so I'll move on. SOOOO I moved out of Ohio where the taxes were low, the gas prices were reasonable, the people are idiots, and the closest redneck was only a hiccup away, and moved myself to Washington. Where the slugs are plentiful, and the traffic is twice as slow and the taxes are the highest in the country. You find the logic in that.

My next phase kinda hit a brick wall.... I was planning to move over here and find the coolest job on the planet involving electronics, but long story short, that didn't happen.  Currently working as a security officer and doing odd computer jobs on the side.  Eventually I'll be working for a homeless shelter networking, building and repairing computers.  Until then I'm holding steady and keeping bills paid. Feel free to Email me if you wish for me to elaborate on anything above but otherwise I'll stop trying to put you too sleep.
