I then landed a job with Bell South as a System Software Engineer and was assigned to support the TIRKS application.

t to AT&T Broadband in 2000 supporting the Cable Telephony initiative and commuted to Denver for 2.5 yrs from Orlando. Will retire in May 2003 and return to Orlando to pursue a new career.
Military
I had a grand time growing up in the Air Force. Went from my home in New Orleans to basic at Lackland to my first assignment at Mt. Home and made a big adjustment to a slower way of life(what I needed to settled down). Left Mt. Home for Guam and joined Andersen Bombers football team and was starting left defensive end. We beat everyone one on the Island and ended up playing Subic Bay to a tie in the Philippines. Finished my tour at Craig AFB in Selma and entered college to play football at Alabama State Univ. I made many friends along the way and would love to hear from any of them just to reminiscence.
