Michael's Story

Life My Spouse Back in 1991 I was working for a company in Sanford, Maine on their computer network when a supervisor walked through with a interviewie, showing her around the plant, she had a great behind and I was hooked! We started dating a week later, moved in together 2 months later, got married 9 months after that. My Pets I've got a 110 gallon saltwater mini reef with live coral, anonomies, clown fish, cleaner wrasses, and a lion fish. I've also got a 55 gallon saltwater tank with a snowflake morey eel in it, count your fingers if you put your hand in that tank! I've also got a cat and a stupidass dog. My Kids Andrea would be 20, she was gorgeous, graduated from modeling school, was captain of the JV cheerleaders and moved onto varsity. Her friends (the boys anyway) refered to me has Andrea's crazy dad, they were very careful not to get on my bad side. Andrea passed on 10/31/02 due to idiot doctors at Maine Medical Center. We miss her very much. Amie is 13, definitely following in her sister's footsteps. Another one to terrorize the boys over. Paige is 6, she's our little sweetheart. Since I run a hosting business out of my home she's never know a day without dad being home with her. School Went to Robert Morris elementary school, Lafayette JH, and Elizabeth HS in Elizabeth, NJ. Was a good kid until about half way through my first year at JH, after that I was public enemy #1 at school :), I think anyone who knew me back then would agree. By the time I got into 10 grade at Elizabeth HS I was pretty much a lost cause, I think I missed something like 128 days of school that year. The summer after 10th grade I had a major falling out with my father and moved to Easton, PA with my Grandmother. I went to Wilson Area HS ...Expand for more
there for my 11th and most of my 12th grades until I dropped out :(. I didn't do all that much better there then I did back at EHS and was without a doubt the worse kid in school for getting into one kind of trouble or another. Later on in life I got my GED and went on to graduate from college with a degree in computer science, ON THE DEAN'S LIST! Bet that's hard to believe for any of you who knew me back then. College Graduated from Andover College in Portland, Maine with a degree in computer science. Did it for myself, I had already been working in the PC tech field for about 14 years when I graduated. Workplace Worked in construction for some years after school but got tired of working in the damn snow all winter in Maine. After that I started working as an electro mechanic on robotic assembly machines until 1992. The whole time I was working as an electro mechanic I was learning computers and started running what was called a BBS (Bulletin Board System). A BBS system was what we had prior to the Internet, it allowed other computer users to dial into your system to exchange files and a brand new thing called email. After 1992 I started working in the computer industry as a Field Service Tech and Integration Engineer. I worked for Digital Equipment Corp, Compaq, Maine Medical Center, WordWrap PC Service, and Coper Network before going into business for myself. I now own a web hosting company named 4Business Hosting (4businesshosting.com). It's great, I work out of my home in Waterboro, Maine and manage our rack of Dell Servers in a Class A Data Center in Freeport, NY. Military None. After quiting school I tried to join the Navy but failed the physical due to a blown out knee I got from a motorcycle accident while in HS.
