20 years and counting: I left Bloomington in late 1986 to move to San Antonio, TX. That is where Paige and I met. We dated for a short time and then in 1988 I was hired by American (love to travel, love to meet people; did I say that?!) I was first based in New York and lived there for a year, then moved to Raleigh, NC for about a year and commuted to New York, then transferred and moved to Miami and stayed there until 1993. I moved back to San Antonio in 1993 and commuted to Miami. Paige and I got reacquainted and were married in January of 1994.

My transfer to Dallas came in August 1994. I continued commuting San Antonio to Dallas until 1997 when we decided to move to the metroplex which brings us to Flower Mound where we currently reside. Sydney was born in October of 1994 (I'll help you with the math, that's 9 months and 3 weeks after we were married) and Natalie will celebrate her first birthday on June 16th. Also about a year ago, I finally attained enough seniority to fly internationally out of Dallas so the flying is wonderful and I get to go to some pretty great places.

I recently started my own business, a custom home theater business. So far it is going very well, and has kept me very busy. My website is www.theaaudioguy.com I work 12 to 14 days a month with American, the rest of the time on the business.

My greatest personal achievement is staying happily married and raising two wonderful daughters.

Words of wisdom: Never go into the airplane bathroom without your shoes on! Trust me on this one.

Favorite Memory or song: Freebird, Roll with the Changes, parties at our apartment, 108..., and hearing principal Norris say that the "undesirables that vandalized the bus probably aren't even in the auditorium," and thinking, "If he only knew!"

Miles to reunion: Probably won't make it.
