I go to alot of rock concerts, and also like to play my own acoustic/electric guitars. I really enjoy being outdoors and working in my yard and landscaping. Photography is a favorite hobby (see my pics area). I enjoy sharing a bottle of wine and making homemade pizza with friends. I love the Fort Wayne Roller Derby Girls!

I've often been described as being "multi-faceted". As a Gemini, I have both a good twin and a bad twin personality - but try to be good as much as possible! I've lived in many places across the US (was born and raised in Geauga County, OH), and probably should write a book about all the cool people I've met. I'm a summa cum laude graduate of Colorado State University (1986), with an educational background in both psychology and plant science. I worked briefly for the US Department of Agriculture and assisted in the development of a specialized plant breeding technology while at Colorado State. My research leader on that project is now one of the top scientists for the NASA Space Shuttle - see what I mean about cool friends! I also worked for the Boy Scouts of America for nearly 17 years - and decided to "retire" early in 2003 (BSA pension doesn't begin until 2026 however). I like to travel and hike challenging trails (state highpoints are a favorite destination) - gave up rock climbing and mountaineering some years ago (gravity and a weakness for cookies are a dangerous combination), but still enjoy reading about these outdoor sports. I try to fill my life with new experiences and look at each new day with a positive outlook. I own my own home (paid off that pesky mortgage in 2005) - now I'm saving for that remote pacific island (Fiji?) that I've had my eye on! I'm still looking for the "love of my life" - at this point, no reasonable offer will be refused! Ha! Cheers to one and all!
Who I'd like to meet: Hugh Hefner, Anna Kournikova, Jimmy Page, Robert Plant, Michael Caine, Sean Connery.
Hey Jack, That was so nice of you to think of us! I wasn't present anyway, to be honest. I'm in Indiana right now (Richmond) finishing up a three week stay with my inlaws. My mother in law started chemo and I wanted to be here to help them through her first couple treatments since I work remotely for my job anyway. I may need to take a break from derby while our family goes through this critical time. Family comes first, ya know!
thankx for the request doll! im a big fan of derby also....i been dieing to get my skatez out n play with some ladies!...just not enough time in my day or dayz in my wk =)
Hi Flash! I'm doin much better, been on R&R way out in the country on my parents farm. Haven't been homesick yet just derbysick, the GRRG Rain or Shiner hates missing practice! What you been up to? Hope your summer has been bright! Miss you and take care! Luya!
Jack that is truly the funniest thing ever! It's a sprain in the tendons on the top of my right foot. Was pretty swollen and I was gimpy n limpin for a few days but it's getting better. Means a lot that you asked about me! I just can't believe that I wiped MYSELF out on the track boundary durrrr! It would have been more honorable and less embarrasing to have gotten taken out by a skater or atleast another referee lmfao. And sad that you had to go before we could get a pic together! Hopefully you will come to one of the NRRG bouts before their season is over. Good to meet you in person finally!
Hey Jack! How's it going? Tom and I went to an altrasound tech today. Had to drink a LOT of water! She measured the baby and looked for defects. She told us the spinal cord is fully closed(So we don't have to worry about spinal bifae), baby's brain is a normal size (that was a concern for me), baby measures more or less 12 inches long (eight inches for head to rump) and wieghs one pound one ounce! It was a really exciting morning!
