For more fun about me, visit my blog Musings of a Not-Quite-Right Mind I'm a tech geek. Always have been. I LOVE to learn. I haven't had a repair person to my house in 9 years. If I can't fix it, at least I've saved someone the trouble of taking it apart. Problem is, I don't admit defeat easily, so I ALWAYS find a way to fix it. I am a Mac user since and a Windows geek. Vista gets a lot of undeserved flak, but OS X beats it with half it's processor tied behind it's back.I have a unique philosophy on life. I won't bore you here with it, but for three easy payments of $19.99 (That's LESS THAN $60!) I will send you my new Audio Tape or Podcast. Okay, so just send me a PM, and I'll enlighten you ;)I sometimes misspell things or make up words. This is on purpose. You will be able to tell. Any other time you catch me, edit my post and hold my mistake up for the world to see. First one to catch me gets 1,000* upvotes.In everyday life, I strive to be a good father (all of the other kids ask our kids if they can trade parents... even though at OUR house we have chores and responsibilities, so we must be doing SOMETHING right) a good friend, and a good fiancee, son, brother, etc. On Plime, I like to contribute to a thread, whether by making you laugh, p*ssed, or think. Sometimes all three. Whether you agree with my views or not, I hope that most of the time I entertain AND inform you. When I'm right, I'm right. When I'm wrong, I'm wrong. I am more than wiling to admit to both ;)*1,000 upvotes equal to 1,000*my current Karma/1,000
