1973 and still sane

Hi Marianne! What a creative idea. It is nice to know that there are intelligent people my own age. I was born on April 3, 1973. My father was a peanut farmer and my mother lobbies for the environmental agencies.

I was brought up in a good home with 6 brothers and 2 sisters. My family is very close(we always defended each other against the bullies at school)

Speaking of school, I attended MIT and graduated with an electrical engineering degree. I was 16th in my class.

I grew up on a big lake in Western Maryland, in the US. I once skydived(skydove?) into the lake while videotaping my brother jumping cars with his motorcycle. He is a little nuttier than even I am. My family calls him Sly after Sylvester Stallone. All of my brothers and I have raced motorcycles. We grew up on 300 acres of land so it was almost necessary for us to learn to ride at an early age.

Anyways, I now live in Washington, DC and own and run a large home improvement company named Homeworks Remodeling Corp. I look forward to sharing many more stories with people my own age. waiting eagerly for response,
