Hello my friends, at least I hope many of you will become my friend!
Started doing computer a few years ago (1977), by building a computer from an article in Pop Comm magazine. Went from there to a Sinclair ZX80 (which I still have and still operates), then on to an LNW-80.
Spend 21 years in the USAF as a Russian Linguist, and installed the first PCs (wang pcs) in Athens Greece in 1983. Retired in 1986 and started a small, very small business providing computers and technology information for small businesses. Stopped doing that, and now just help friends.
about 35 years ago, left Windows behind, and have used Linux ever since. Love it. Mess with Python, databases and general technology. I love tech.
Played the Theatre Organ (a real pipe organ) at the Orpheum Theatre on Broadway for 8 years between the movies, and was on the board of directors of the Los Angeles Theatre Organ Society for 10 years. Past President of the Baldwin Park Rotary Club, and a past Elk who played the organ for numerous lodges.
Love Tech, Astronomy, Music and probably more things then I can list here. Photography has been a life long passion.
I live in “sunny” southern CA, near Los Angeles…would love to move out, but my Filipina wife has too many relatives here. Have travelled extensively while in the AF, to Pakistan, Turkey, Berlin, Crete, West Germany, England, Alaska, Okinawa and the Philippines.
