That's a good thread Don posted. The geek in me thinks that I can put up a couple of lines of code and people will automatically get it. Gotta get me some people skills....

The hard part may be finding a place on the web to post your pics for free. I'll volunteer my site as a place to put pics if anyone wants until they get their own.

BTW...welcome to the site binarian...always good to get new new england influence in here...

Lol...I'm a geek too...although checking out your profile you seem to be more of an old school geek than I...

Yeah, sorta. I've really only been in the biz about 10 years. Went back to school after I got out of the military after the Gulf. You?

I just turned 30. I've got degrees in Mechanical, Electrical, and Computer Engineering. Right now I'm designing a power panel with an ethernet port, so you can read all the currents through a web page. Does that qualify me as a nerd?

CT is a few hours across. Which side are you on?

I'm impressed, defininately a high end nerd.
I'm on the left side of CT., near Waterbury.

uhhh...

Red Sox?

or...

????

Awwwwwww binarian big huggies to a Veteran :huggies: Thank you! And to anymore of you modest military fellows who I don't know about.

God how can you ask? Sox of course.

Thanks Scoutmom - nice to know people haven't forgotten.

Well if I wasn't afaid of static shock I'd give you a big 'ole kiss too. I have a very big soft spot for anyone who is willing to put themselves in harms way so that I can feel safe and sleep better at night. Dare I ask what branch?

I was in the Navy about 12 years, a Hospital Corpman, about half the time with the Marines ( that's where they get they're field medics).

And yeah, be careful of the monitor, don't get your lips stuck on the glass....

Good just checking...as you get toward that corner of CT, you never know...

Nice to have you on the site...sorta hijacked the thread, didn't we

Yeah, we did. I gotta split anyway; meeting one of my sons.

Want everyone to know how much I appreciate this place, people taking notice and showing they care, however long distance.

Later.

So do you Navy men really have a girl in every port or is that just a myth? My uncle was in the Navy but he won't kiss and tell. My grandfather was a merchant marine and I was too young to know about such stuff to ask.

Sorry no. I was married for 23 years...come to think of it I still am, not quite divorced yet.
Got married during my second enlistedment, kinda put the kibosh on the wild life.
