Andre's Story

Worked at Farrell's Dining and Ice Cream Parlour (Blossom Hill, then Eastridge) from 1974-8. Co-workers from Pioneer class of '74 included Jim Stanek and Julie Saito. Attended San Jose City College for 2 years, starting as a math major. Played on tennis team for 1975 and 1976 seasons. Switched majors when transferring to San Jose State. Graduated from SJSU with a B.S. in Accounting. Lived in San Francisco from 1979-95. Longest job in my life was from 1980-90 at Morrison-Knudsen Engineers. Also worked at Izzy's Steaks and Chops for 3 years where I really learned about accounting, being the only accoutant there. Re-met Cathy Mack at the 20 year reunion in 1994. Dated for 3 years and married in 1997. No longer married, but still the very best of friends. Still working as an accountant as a contractor. My "specialty" is cleaning up accounts and books for the companies I'm assigned to. Biggest passion is baseball, particularly stats. Worked on a book (really an encyclopedia) for 9 years, ultimately abandoned the project. Cathy was a higher priority. Started work in 2000 on current project, which is...Expand for more
turning out to be the foundation of my life's work. Started as a book project, now a website - baseballbypositions.com . Site was launched Sept 09. Working on more material for site with years of backlog to publish both on my site and as future book projects. Member of SABR (Society for American Baseball Research) since 1984. Usually can be found at the annual national convention. Didn't mark golf as an interest since I haven't played since 1995. Still follow the game with great interest. Big A's, Giants and 49ers fan. The interests section didn't even give blues as an option for music. Works for me. Also, it's not Beatles or Stones for me - it's Beatles and Stones.
