That's Proud (bleeping) Civilian to those of you who don't know. I'm kind of into computers and electronic equipment...you might say. I know my history, too, since it's been a hobby for me since ... well, since the dinosaurs roamed the earth, I think.

I have some fairly extensive duties keeping the equipment running, though, so don't be surprised if I disappear occasionally. I'm just off in search of the right parts.

And I don't take kindly to being yelled at or being called "dweeb", "nerd", "geek", "swot", "wonk", or other terms of intellectural denigration, either. So if you ever expect to get home from these adventures, you'll bear that in mind. Mwah-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!!!
