John's Story

This site won't let me say the name of the social networking site where I'm active. Maybe you can guess. The first part of the name has F as the first letter and ACE as the next letters. then comes a word with B as the first letter and ook as the next. -- It's free! Life A few things have changed since I wrote my life story (below). One of my dogs died. She is still missed. Also, we've gotten older. But otherwise, life in New Mexico changes slowly. I am married and have two sons: Leif was born in 1995 and Lance in 1999. My wife, Marion, and I have been married since 1990, so it will be 18 years this September. I've been working at Los Alamos National Lab for the last 14 years or so, but am getting tired of all the scandals and am thinking about other jobs. I do work on computer speech recognition whenever I can. I like the field. I haven't published a lot, but I recently had a paper published in the journal Speech Communication and happy about that. I have fantasies of retiring when I'm 60 but taking visiting positions at research institutes all over the world, particularly Grenoble, Lausanne, and Kyoto.

or some scandal or other. I live in a rural area down the hill from Los Alamos and about 15 miles from Santa Fe. Life in New Mexico suits me pretty well, but I've liked most of the places I've lived. I guess I'm easy to please. I like watching my boys running down the dirt road shirtless and shoeless. It's raining here right now, which is a good thing in New Mexico. I've danced out in the rain with my boys many times, because it is usually warm rain and not frequent enough. We have been remodeling a 125 year old adobe house for about the last 10 years. I'm not sure if we will ever get finished. We have sometimes found shards of Pueblo pottery in the adobe because it was handmade. My life seems to keep me busy all the time. Between work, family, and remodeling, I sometimes go a couple months without reading my email, and responding is even less likely. Don't take it as a snub if I don't communicate much. I have two dogs (one was a stray), two tadpoles, and a guinea pig for pets. My guys are good animal catchers so we've had toads, lizards, and various kinds of snakes as pets at times too. We have never kept centipedes as pets. I am a very good hunter of black widow spiders.
