Other Comments: Originally from my dad's penis but grew up in Iowa. On active-duty in the U.S. Navy since 1994, currently serving as the Command Chief onboard Navy Operational Support Center Wilmington, North Carolina.. Married & father of two beautiful girls. Described by more than a few as "someone with many quaint skills," I'm sufficiently intelligent to qualify for at least one personality disorder. I enjoy dog-sledding, softball, & watching people run for their lives. I love throwing garbage out the window, yet I'm extremely sophisticated."Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind." ~ Dr. Seuss
