Fondest memory of high school:

So many memories, how can you choose just one. Here are my top four in no paticular order.

Racing Jess Buetenbaugh in our cars at Midwest Speedway? and the track at Northeast. I won both races, that's how I remember it. Jess may have a different version.

Party out at Landstrums farm, getting stopped at a roadblock with about 15 other cars from Rocket high and the only ticket issued was to Kirby for littering since we decided to get rid of the styrafoam cooler full of nothing but ice water...

Going out to jump bridge with Wiedeman, Kirby, Larson and getting airborne after hitting 70 mph in my Mom's Comet and breaking all four shocks.

Going to the Papillion basketball game with Larson, Deprez, and one other I can't remember. Had a flat tire after the game, what ensued from there remains a secret, right guys, right...

What have you done as an adult that you told yourself you would never do when you were young?

Turning into my father. Knowing what I know now, he was very insightful.

Favorite quote(s):

"I am so clever that sometimes I don't understand a single word of what I am saying." Oscar Wilde

"I'm not afraid of death; I just don't want to be there when it happens." Woody Allen

What now occupies your spare time?

Cooking and family not necessarily in that order…

Favorite music (now or all-time)?

Country/Really any music. Freebird Lynard Skynard/ZZ Top

Favorite TV shows (now or all-time)?

Amazing Race, Survivor, HGTV, DIY, CSI, NCIS, Shark Tank, Fringe just to name a few. Oh ya, any cooking show.

Favorite movies (now or all-time)?

Anything John Wayne, Its a Wonderful Life, Cinderella Man, The Rookie, Shanendoah, Shawshank

Other comments:

Its sad to think that the majority of our classmates don't feel a need to fill in the information requested from this site and don't attend the reunion because I'm guessing a bad experience in high school. Life is short, live it with gusto and appreciate the things that you've done and the people you know or have known. Once a Rocket always a Rocket...

When was the last time you belly laughed? Why?

About 3 weeks ago. Met with old co-workers from Gallup at Flemings in Omaha for dinner. Every time we get together there is lots of laughter.

Name some famous or interesting people you've met?

Payne Stewart, Tim Allen
