Personal

Interests I'd like to share with others: Camping, hiking, outdoor life, Computers/Internet, Hobbies and crafts, Music, Photography, Playing cards, Video Games
My Favorite Sports: Biking, Billiards/Pool, Dancing, Golf, Shooting, Swimming, Walking/Hiking
Overview:

 I'm a pretty well rounded guy with MANY diverse interests. Listen to many types of music, a zillion hobbies, prefer being active or at least outside but I do have my online gaming/computers to keep me indoors , lol. I'm a very hands on type person. I am heavily mechanically inclined, computer knowledgeable and try to use these talents to help those who are not.

 I'm NOT your typical 44 year old. I play hard and joke around harder. If you can't laugh, don't get around me. I try to find the good in everyone but avoid whiners and smart mouths. Sure, we all have bad days and I'm more forgiving than most, but I can not tolerate peckerheads and those who take advantage of others.

 I've never met a stranger.

 I talk to much but I listen well :D

 Holler at me, I don't bite.... unless you like it.

How has your disability changed your life...for better or worse?: Typical sci, yepper, it changed my life. But I started living again quick as I could. No sense in complaining about it, doesn't help. There have been good things come out of it, it helped to make me who I am today. But I wouldn't advise anyone to break their spine, you can change without that drastic of a measure, lol.
What is your most embarrassing moment?: Heck, I have embarrassing moments often, mostly due to foot-in-mouth disease, but I'm working on a cure for that one. I just need a pretty lab assistant to speed up the process.  
What is your most triumphant moment?:

 Every morning I wake up, that is not something to be taken lightly. We are not guaranteed another day, live each one to it's fullest, and put a SMILE on that face..... and those around you. 

What are your dreams...for yourself and your peers?:

Whirled Peas....  

 Life IS a series of challenges. What I have learned, I try to pass on to others. When I can help someone in any way, I try. If we would all do that, the world would be a better place.
