Well, to start with I am a full time husband and father.  And that is a 24 hour 
job in itself!lol   But in my free time I am a licensed vending machine 
operator.  Meaning I make sure the snack, pop, and coffee machines at 6 
locations are always full, clean, and working.  I also have been coaching 
wrestling for the last 20 years, and with my limited technology background, I 
help a few friends setup and trouble shoot certain issues, and most of them can 
see.  For some strange reason they think I am a genius, who am I to argue?lol  
I am also I licensed Minister at my church, and have a 

 associates degree in theology.  Plan on pursuing a degree to be a marriage 
counselor, but I will do that when all my kids are in school full time.
