In the beginning there was ... ME,
Not to sound like Gaius Baltar on the New Battlestar Galactica, but we all know that each of us is where the world begins... Oh wait, that was the ultimate secret? Shhh you didn't see that comment.
I live in Denver, Colorado and I survived that blizzard we had last December that lasted in its impact until this past month.
I am a huge fan of media Science Fiction, besides the New Battlestar Galactica I watch or have watched at any one time : Twilight Zone with Rod Serling Night Gallery with Rod Serling, The Outer Limits (Both versions)VOYAGE TO THE BOTTOM OF THE SEA THE ORIGINAL STAR TREK Doctor Who MISSION IMPOSSIBLE SPACE 1999 Blake's 7 Deep Space 9 THE X FILES Babylon 5 SeaQuest DSV (Only season 1 counts)ENTERPRISE Season 1-2 only and as I said at the beginning the re imaged BATTLESTAR GALACTICA and THE DRESDEN FILES.
I am a huge fan of the History Channel and The Discovery Channel and have followed AMERICAN CHOPPER to THE LEARNING CHANNEL.
My passion is writing, I have a completed manuscript on THE FLYING TIGERS of World War 2, I have two manuscripts in work that are semi biographical in a fictional manner, and I have written six books of Poetry,
I have been in love one time really, and it was the best of times and the worst of times, but I am grateful for the experience beyond words.
I attended Metro State College in 1999 and am working toward a degree in Physical Fitness for Special Populations. Translated it means working to be a personal trainer for people with a variety of neural muscular diseases.
I am an armature photographer, see the photo I took of me before my first cuppa java, and I love all forms of music including pre gangsta rap, liked the old stuff like the Beastie Boys.
My favorite movies of this last year included World Trade Center, a film everyone needs to see, it is about heroes and the ability to survive the worst circumstances.
Hollywood Land, wonderful who done it about the death of George Reeve the Superman from the TV series of the 1950s, great period piece well acted and should have received an academy award nom.
SUPERMAN RETURNS Great sequel to Superman 2.
Honorable mention FLYBOYS, because it is the first film I have seen where the aerial combat for World War 1 is believable.
So this is a little bit about me.
Hope you enjoy my writing.

The series looks at the lives of several captains and crews of crab fishing boats working out of Dutch Harbor Alaska. Each episode will be cut together with people like Sig Hansen, the Captain of the Northwestern; a fishing boat that is crewed mainly by family members.
