Thanks a bunch Claudio !
OK, I guess it's my turn - 5 things you probably didn't know about me.
#1 - Biker Geek - I ride a 2000 Harley Davidson Fat Boy - well not so much since, let's see... Dec. 10, 2003 - oh wow, what a coincidence, my daughter's birthday.
#2 - Freemason - I belong to a very old fraternity known as the Freemasons - this does not mean that I know where the Holy Grail or the National Treasure is so don't ask.
#3 - Programmer from the old days - I was the kid that used to ride his Huffy to the local Radio Shack after school to type code from David H. Ahl's Basic Computer Games into the store's TRS-80 Model 1 - and then store it using CSAVE (remember cassettes)?
#4 - Very Pro-Military - I think our fighting men and women are the best in the world and deserve our support NO MATTER WHAT.
#5 - Hold a Private Pilot rating - Yet another thing I don't have a lot of time for anymore, but I do fly Cessnas.
So now I have to tag 5 other people. Let's see, who may have something vaguely interesting to say....
Richard Campbell
Scott Greenberger
Bill Vaughn
Mark Miller
Eric Harrison
Wow, I've been hit again (Robert Hurlbut) - ok I'll add another point then (something more personal)
#6 - I immigrated from Havana, Cuba in 1969 after my father had done 2 years in a field-work concentration camp in order to earn our exit visas. At that time you could not come straight to the US so we had to choose a 3rd country - and Spain it was. I lived in Madrid for 3 years and back then you had to have a relative physically in the US who can claim you if wanted to come over. Well, the only one that was legally able to travel here was my brother and sister (who were both born in Madrid), since they were Spanish citizens. We sent my little brother when he was 1 to NY with a friend of my fathers and once he was here we were able to use him to claim the rest of us. The rest as they say, is history - God Bless the USA !
