I am baby-boomer, atheist, and preachers-kid.

My Self-Summary

I am 60 years old, the father of a 20 year old guitar genius, sober in AA for 25 years, and I love cooking, art films, hiking, lighthouses, and Big Boggle. I am ENFP on MBTI, Aquarius, with Cancer rising on Astrology, and a RAT in the Chinese Zodiac. I am an AS/400 computer programmer, and I dabble in audio recording and photography.
I have been married twice; my son is the product of the second marriage. I was in a nine year long relationship that ended in August of 2007.
I have been in business systems development as a career since 1978, and I like it a lot.
