Life
My Spouse

My Pets
There are currently 3 cats that live in my home all girls.
I donot really have a job at this time but I am promoting a business called Lyoness which is an international shopping club which gives cash back and shopping points for shopping at Lyoness merchants.
After high school I went to college for a year then joined the Army for 3 years. I was back in college when my father died which ended my education. I then worked for Illinois Bell Telephone from which I retired in 1996. I earned a BA in Computer Science from the University of Illinois in Springfield in 1993. I then moved to Florida in 1996 ...Expand for more
because my mother and sister were there and it as an area (St. Petersburg) that was rarely hit by hurricanes. I worked for Computer Generated Solutions for 4 four years and then for PriceWaterhouseCoopers where I retired on May 31st, 2007.
If I won $100 million, I'd give half of it to charity, then spend the rest on travel, home, and grand kids.
I was a member, Treasurer, President, Of Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society and then co-adviser for 2 years while I taught part time at Lincoln Land Community College and attended the University of Illinois Springfield while still working for Illinois Bell Telephone 25 years after I left college the first time.
My first job was at Wolcott Shrimp Shop 63rd and Wolcott, where I got paid 1.25 to peel potatoes and turn them into french fries. What I remember most about it is The job was fun because of the nice employers. I also met my first real girl friend there.
