Blog tag - five things you didn't know about me
Derek tagged me on this...
- I have a Bachelor of Music degree, with a Vocal major. I sang in a number of stage productions at Brandon University between 1985 and 1991, but many of the people who graduated ahead of me went off to Toronto and New York and a year later were mostly involved in 12-step programs and figuring out their mental states of mind. Me, I decided to keep my sanity and go into my other passion, software, for my occupation.
- I have a Ford F-250 truck with a diesel engine that runs on used vegetable oil. I converted it a couple of years ago, and in the summer I can run about 80% on used vegetable oil. The winter is more challenging, but it is an interesting hobby. It's an extended cab, yellow in colour, so our family and friends call it "Big Bird".
- Someday I want to build a monolithic dome home. It's very disaster proof and highly energy efficient.
- I'm involved with a mission in Nicaragua that is building an orphanage.
- Someday I will quit the software business and become a high school music teacher. Probably ten years out though.
