7 things you don't (but should) know about me

1.) I am currently in the military, have been for the past 7 years and some change.  I've loved a lot of things about it, and even hated a thing or two as well.  Overall, I wouldn't have it any other way though.

2.) I am attending TMCC to get a AAS degree in Computer Information Technology with my emphasis being in Servers and Networking.

3.) The only thing i know about Linux is that its open source and that a form of Linux is what Android is made from.  I know this only because I've goofed around on my phone and rooted it before.

4.) I am pretty tall compared to most.  I feel that me being 6'3" isn't that tall, but it is apparently a big deal to most others.

5.) I have a beautiful daughter that you see in my picture.  She is three in September and an absolute princess (even complete with the princess attitude :-P) that i raise completely on my own.

6.) I have been working with/on/around computers since I was about 10 years old.  I got my first computer at that time and really started getting into the MP3 craze that soon happened at that point.  My first computer was a compaq and died after leaving it on for more than 48 hours. 

7.) I love the Reno area mostly for its out doors and 24 hour lifestyle.  I love to Snowboard, Mountain Bike, Hike and venture around Lake Tahoe. 

I hope this helps everyone grasp my life a little, and if there are any questions, I would love to answer them.
