I'm a widowed male, Scorpio, born in 1948, lived in Virginia, Colorado, Wyoming, Nebraska, California, Florida, now Saint George, Utah, retired Sailor (Gunners Mate, Certified Range Master for Navy, Marine Corp. and Army), have been to Viet Nam, Hong Kong, Singapore, Japan, Hawaii, Guam, England, France, Turkey, Italy, the Black Sea, Mombasa, Kenya, India, all around South America, retired from 21 years with QVC Security and am a p-poor writer, as you may notice, I write just bare bones. Most of my computer experance is from doing, reading, and very little schooling. I have been reading Science-fiction since I could read, (age 5-6) Isaac Asimov, Robert Heinlein, E. E. (Doc) Smith, Arthur Clarke, Now John Ringo, David Webb, J. D. Robb, and so on. If a story appeals, I usually send a "enjoyed it." I don't flame, just don't read past where I dislike the story.
