Profile Information

Can you help create the Slungle show?
Yes
Your interests
Friendships, Knowledge, Interaction, Employment, Music, Movies, Books
What are you passionate about?
Politics, even though I try not to be. I hate being passionate about politics, because it only ever causes stress. Other things I'm passionate about are family (moreso than anything else), God (yes, I know, the order here is an issue), running, music.

My hobbies include running and computer stuff of all kinds. I love photography and working with Photoshop. I am a software engineer/developer/designer by trade, and its great to make money doing things that I find to be fun.
What are you most thankful for?
The other day an old friend said something that really struck me. "Your life has always been blessed," he said, almost as a sidebar in an email.

It took a while to process, but he's right. As bad as things may have seemed at certain times, I've had an incredibly blessed life.
Besides parents, who has been most influencial in your life?
God, obviously, but we're talking about people.

My wife... My kids. My friends, especially when younger, who somehow managed to have strong values despite living in a world of absent parents.

I was watching a TV show where Jack Osbourne (Ozzie's son), after rehab, lost a bunch of weight and changed his entire life around. He climbed a huge cliff, and it was very impressive. As Ozzie watched from below he said, "The thing about raising kids is, you learn more from them than they learn from you."
How do you typically spend your leisure time?
Running
What are the three characteristics that describe you best?
Maybe an outside observer could best answer this question.
What are you life goals?
I want to be remembered as someone who, despite being a messed up human being, somehow managed to make the lives of those around him at least a little better.
What do you believe?
See Nicene Creed.
Are you in...
employed
What is the most interesting thing about you?
I really have no idea. How un-interesting.

My Resume

I'm happily employed right now, but it is my personal policy to keep my resume updated and public at all times.

Cops 2, Me 1

It was the summer of 2002, and there was, as usual, road construction all around my home. I live in a subdivision off of an extremely busy road, route 59, which runs from Joliet all the way up to Schaumburg (and beyond).

This particular week, in the summer of 2002, we had been experiencing some major traffic issues in our neighborhood. Route 59, in front of our subdivision, was closed for construction. This meant that people we… Continue

I Stole Lunch



I'm an ass.
Here's why:

Have you ever been in a situation that was so potentially embarrassing and awkward (and dangerous to your social status) that it was simply easier to do the wrong thing than the right thing?Continue

Taco Salad Night... Ruined

repost (Caution: If you have a weak stomach, stop here.)

This happened about a year ago...

Yep. The vomit can happen at any given time and for no reason. It can have nothing to do with being sick. Generally when it happens I spring to action, running to the little child who is puking, only to r
