Educator. Engineer. Experimenter.
As an elementary school STEM teacher it would be a disservice to my students if I didn’t introduce them to 3D printing in this day and age. So our school bought a couple printers this school year and I’ve kept them running almost constantly. It’s been more fun that I imagined it would be. I’m…
I recently bought an original Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) and hooked it up for my son and his friends to experience 80s gaming. I sold my original NES in the 90s but still had various cartridge games stashed away. He found them and wanted to play them as I did. Note this is an original…
Setup a small above ground pool for my son this summer. He’s a little restless in quarantine 😛
We had the pleasure of opening up for Vanwho last night at Uncle Lou’s. If music comes from the soul, this is music. She has a beautiful voice and playing style, very emotional and unique. I also like her use of whistling for leads 🙂 She is very talented. Make it a point to see…
An impromptu blues jam at the house with some friends. My neighbor Jeff (of Lure Design and the Ten10 open mic jam) is shredding it as usual on guitar. Long time no see multi-band mate, Scott Sigman, on bass in this video, but Jason Hinders played bass most of the night. Joel Pickering and UCF…

Pretty cool idea and very enjoyable for FFXIV fans. — As I wind down another 4 month mini-addiction of…
I saw Terri Binion tonight at Imperial Wine Bar at Washburn Imports on North Orange. She plays folky Americana songs, and has a fantastic voice. She’s been in and Central Florida for a long time, but has also toured nationally and played with some greats. She knows what she’s doing. She handled the loud, chatty…
Mike Wallace of Ten10 Brewing Company and Jeff Matz of Lure Design host a local rock and blues jam session every Wednesday at 7pm at Ten10 Brewing on Virginia Dr. near Mills (and have been doing so for several years now). It’s very laid back and friendly. We’ve had many musicians come out, including guitarists,…
Just got back from watching the DS9 documentary at the theater. LOVED IT! A big thank you to Ira Stephen Behr for taking the time and effort to put it together. A big thank you to all the fine actors, writers and filmmakers for their work on this show! And a final thank you to…
For Halloween this year, we were Andorians. We did not take part in the Ushaan, however we did drink Andorian Ale (Mountain Dew Voltage).
