Life send a message, cant see that there guest book kids. "Well that was a waste of a noise, nearly everybody tried to play TOO safe" 20pts an a bottle of geritol if you remeber that line. Went to Steller my senior year, awesome experience, edjumakation wise it left both Dimond and most college experiences lacking. Did my freshman year in college at World College West in Petaluma, CA studying Chinese Language and Culture before helping to create the International Business Management degree program, then in '89 when I was to spend a year in Shanghai, China up and closed because of Tiananmen square. Came back to Anchortown for a year, went to UAA for a semester. During that time 'Jens toy' ended up with Jens best friend(my bad), got engaged and stayed that way til '95-ish. Moved back to California in '90, lost my dad in '92, got my AA from Santa Rosa Junior College in '93 and got promoted into sales at scandinavian designs (dania) where I stayed til I wanted to puke at the site of myself. Just shy of 8 years with the company (1998) I quit without notice, moved to Seattle and took a minimum wage job at a deli that a friend owned so I could be at the doorstep of a startup tech company when it was ready to open. That worked, I was employee #1 (and like everyone else would be coming to the reunion in my helicopter if it only hadnt been for those meddling... vulture capitalists). Been in IT ever since and finally have a real job as a database analyst for a huge corporate law firm, nice view of the needle out my window, 3gigs of ram, yadda yadda.
