I was born in Mobile Alabama, but we immediately moved across the Bay to Fairhope where I lived until I was five. It was at that time that my father begin his ministry with the United Methodist Church in Summerdale, where we lived until 1969 - I was eleven then. I spent my early teen years in rural North Carolina near Henderson, and we moved again to Marriana Florida when I was fifteen, staying only 2 years. I spent the last two years of High School in Gilbertown AL, graduated from Auburn with a BEE in 1982 and again with an MSEE in 1987. Except for 4 years in Spokane WA, I've spent the rest of my life in Atlanta GA.
Interests
So if you haven't guessed, I got my pilot's license a few years back and bought a plane. I had a few good years, not sure where it will go.
Trying to learn Spanish. Esta es muy dificil para un hombre que es tan viejo!
Me? Like Country music? NEVER! But for some reason, my like of Celtic fiddle is moving me closer than I would have ever thought.
Cooking most anything - with a special interest in Asian food. It started with Thai (we have two Kafir lime trees: Limey and Rita). We'll see where it goes from here.
Oh, and I admit it - I'm a news junkie. Never call me between 10 and 11AM on a Saturday because I'll be listening to Wait Wait Don't Tell Me on NPR. (especially if Paula is on the panel)
