Variety is the spice of life

There seems to be such a large variety of different people here all gathered together under one unbrella, woodworking. It's pretty obvious what we have in common but what about what we may not.

It would be nice to see a list of everyones age, occupation, place of residence.

I will start.

Looks like I will have to add to mine just so I can keep up with the others.

Married to Michele, my highschool sweetie. 7 kids, 4 boys, 3 girls.

Got a dog, 2 birds, fish and had some chickens but the bald eagles and coyotes ate them all.

Other interest is airguns.

Keep in mind that this is not just for the forum - all this stuff is indexed by Google, so it's available to anyone who's curious, or who just stumbles across it. My day job makes me more aware of cyber and data crime than most people. By the way, full name + date of birth + city can be enough for identity theft.

Home: Philadelphia

Age: I look about 30 years older than I feel

Occupation: computer stuff

Single

Enjoys Philly's theater (ComedySportz, 1812, Ladies and Gentlemen)

Wishes my basement shop had more headroom

I'm past 55 and that's all I'm saying

I run a small construction company, i.e., I'm effectively unemployed but can't draw benefits

Been married for 33 years, have a son ten years older than his sister and a daughter(Daddy's Spoiled Rotten Princess :rolleyes: ) that will graduate from UGA (GO DAWGS!) next semester

I live in the NW Atlanta 'burbs in a house that was built in the early '70's and has no mortgage. I'm doing all I can to keep it from falling down...

My retirement plan is a massive heart attack :blink:

Me in a nutshell: I play guitar, work on my photography and woodworking, flyfish, and try to keep the business going, the kid in school and the house standing. In my spare time I goof around on the Skynets, drink fine Canadian whiskey and single-barrel bourbon and, weather permitting, cook on my Webers.
