NOW...
DFW Airport - Plant Operator, things look stable. I expect to be here for quite some time - at least until I sell a lot of games or a few novels.
Things I have to do:
Car Mechanic - only my own cars.
Plumbing, Electrical, Refrigeration - only my own house
I also have a Refrigeration License, to Recycle and Reclaim Refrigerant.
Interests, Hobbies:
Games Design. I have a small collection of Various Games, most of which I have never played. I borrow ideas from them, and have been known to do the same with games on the net.
I run my computer dual-boot Peanut Linux and windoze98 on my computer at home. No way I'm going to run XP, as I don't like the idea of surrendering more of my freedom than I have to (or want to)...
I have been known to take up crayons, Paintbrushes, or a mouse - and draw or paint. A bit beyond stick men, perhaps a bit less than Rembrandt. I have a package (runs on windoze) called DOGA that's really good - renders 3d models.
