Graduated

Short story - got two degrees in Biology and Oceanography then threw them away and went into IT to be part of the Internet bubble in the last 90s. Had a very short-lived first marriage and now what I plan to be a very long-lived one. Two human kids, Isabel and Olivia and two much larger dog kids, Mattie and Chloe (who are as much a part of the family). I travel all over the world for my job but still love to travel (when I have the time) with the family.

Not a chance!

Just about everywhere except China and Russia, mostly on business. My parents live in France in the summers and Crista's parents live in Switzerland so we get a lot of chance to travel as a family.

A few, mostly because of travel. I sat next to Robert Redford on a flight to Chicago a couple of years ago. He was not happy about being bothered.

I've mostly been either a student or a computer geek. I worked my way through college in an etymology lab that specialized in houseflies and cockroaches. Surprisingly, that wasn't my worst job. That would be the dishwashing job I got between college and grad school. WAY more disgusting.

Got a biology degree (specializing in neurobiology and animal behavior) in 1993 from Cornell University and a MS in Biological Oceanography from the University of Washington in 1996.

I'm a computer geek - which means the usual sci-fi, gaming, trashy novel reading thing. I'm also an ex-biologist so I love nature, especially the wet kind, so I love camping, fishing and sailing. I also love to build things with my hands and have a fantastic workshop, although I don't get much time for that these days.

Both the best and the worst - running track. Photographing kids at dances. Mr Ufer.

The fact that it was high school and I was a geek.

Ufer!

Since I didn't like them, I don't remember any names. I don't think I strongly disliked any class. I managed to get out of a lot of the boring ones. Independent study!

Matt Kracht,Bob Brewer, and I were inseparable.

I think I've blacked all of that out of my memory. Too embarrassing to think about.

Not much, honestly. Probably not be so much of a goober, I would hope.

Don't sweat it. It will all work out pretty much like you hope it will. And don't party so much your first year of college!

Yeah, pretty much everything.

I don't think I really cared at the time, so probably not.
