SOME OF MY PAGES

LATEST STORIES

Bored?! Want to read about some of my more interesting stories? Well, here you go. Someone once told me I should write a book about my life--not that anyone would buy it, but my friends sure would get a kick out of it. This is just a very feeble start, I guess.

MY SOAPBOX

Here's my place to vent and ramble on about certain issues that bug me. It's my chance to get up on my soapbox and preach about how screwed up everyone else is and how perfect I am. If you believe that one, then I've got some ocean-property in Arizona to sell you!

Check it out, it's a good source for some lively conversation and feel free to email your comments. If you make a good enough point, I'll even post it! (whether I agree or not, I don't believe in biased discussion)

The Rear View Mirror

Maybe this should be called Food-for-thought. It's just a collection of little stories that I have collected over the years.

Soon, I will add a page with some of my favorite quotes.

ACTIVITIES & INTERESTS

Soon, I will add a page with some of my favorite quotes.

Click on the icons for pages with pictures of 'Camarillo Connie', a friend's T-33 Project, My RV-4, Boy Scout trips, some of my artwork, rock climbing trips, and of course, 'Chevy'!

The beauty of using DotPhoto's website--other than it being free--is that anyone can order copies of my pictures. So, if you see something you want a copy of, then feel free to order.

The prices are quite reasonable, especially for you folks who know me. If you're visiting this website, then you probably know me. In order to pay the at-cost prices, just enter the password when prompted. The password is easy to remember, if you know me, then you know my dog's name. There you go, easy at that!

NAVY PAGES

Here are some pages to provide a summary of the 17 + years that I have committed to the US Navy. Among these pages, is one summary of my career, a P-3 Flight Engineer Page, one for my Current Command (VP-1), past commands such as VX-30 (a.k.a. Naval Weapons Test Squadron), VP-26 page and eventually a page for the USS Midway.
