Not really who but what – the Marine Corps. As a teenaged Marine in the early 70's, I had the opportunity to fine-tune my computer skills.

Tell us about your pets.

At one point we had four small dogs and around 15 cats (some wild). We are now down to one dog and around 10 cats. It appears that the coyotes are getting to them at night. We are trying to remedy the problem – perhaps purchasing a donkey will do it.

Describe your childhood and include where you grew up.

Grew up in the small farming town of Danavang, TX, located around 120 miles southeast of Houston. Childhood consisted of fishing, hunting and fighting with the many cousins in which we all lived within a two-mile radius from each another. We all had lots of fun.

I had three, Bonanza, Gunsmoke & Hunter, in which I still watch reruns when I get a chance, presently my favorite is the DIY network channel, can't get enough of it.

Dancing with the Stars.

When you're not working, what do you do for fun?

Repair barbed wire fences, feed cattle, target shoot and just simply relax in the ranch whenever possible, although there never seems to be a shortage of work.
