MY BUCKET LIST
One of my nicknames is Blue Meezer because of my love for Siamese cats and the fact that my favorite color is blue. I even have a blue point Siamese cat. I especially like cats, but I also like dogs, and horses. I have a Franciscan influence, and it helped foster my love for animals and nature. I feel we need to take care of it - to take care of everything God has given us.
Life is good. I am very thankful to God that He has blessed me with two wonderful sons ages 25 and 22. I love my career as a professor of computer information systems technology for a community college. Teaching is my calling, and I have a job that I love and uses the talents that I enjoy using the most. It is a joy to help my students and friends with technical questions and problems. But this site is my own personal site, and my views do not reflect those of the college. Every problem is an opportunity, and a squandered opportunity is a problem. I have reached a new era of my life and greet it with optimism. We all have our trials and sometimes find ourselves up against the odds. That's when I feel like David taking on Goliath. Well, my middle name is David, so it's only appropriate. But when a person handles trials the right way, then adversity does not defeat you – it merely strengthens you. So I am one to believe in never giving up the pursuit of doing what is right and what is God's Will. I believe in living a God-Centered life and that this is the best strategy for living. I am here to make friends and help/support people as they need it, as well as just shoot the bull and have fun. I especially get along best with teachers, though I do get along with people from a wide variety of backgrounds. And I hope someday that I will meet that special woman who I will love and cherish all the days of my life, and to whom I will be the best husband I possibly can be. I hope you enjoy viewing my page and hope that if you are not a friend on this page yet that you become one - if you like what you see. I am passionate about the causes in which I am involved – pro-life, protecting the rights of consumers of mental health services, and helping those in need. I am actively involved in causes to help people. The strongest value I have and one that I will never compromise is that I am pro-life. I am actively involved in our local Right to Life organization. I'm involved with NAMI, and I also help at food pantries when the opportunities arise.
TURN ON'S
My interests include computer software development, animals, cartography, fitness walking, weight resistance training, and sports - especially University of Kentucky sports, along with the Cincinnati Reds and Cincinnati Bengals. I also admire the Xavier Musketeers. My other "turn on's" are compassion, honesty, ethics and high moral standards, attractiveness, physical and mental health, success in career and financially, and a strong faith. I strive to practice these "turn on's" everyday. I like to be straightforward, and I believe in win-win situations where you accept and respect yourself and others for who they are.
TURN OFF'S
Egotism, self-centeredness, coldness, dishonesty, lack of faith and spirituality, rudeness, egoism, cynicism, any cruel, malicious, and spiteful behavior, and neglect to take care of what a person has - health, finances and career - anything a person has.
