I currently work for a local college in Dallas in the Admissions Department. I previously worked for the State of Texas as an Employment Counselor and the Texas Employment Commission. I am a veteran of the U. S. Army. I am divorced and have 3 adult children. I love sports, especially football, and my favorite pro football team is the Dallas Cowboys.
I am a published contributor to www.deadspin.com and NBC Sports – Out of Bounds and other sports blogs. I love having the ability to state my own opinion and always welcome feedback that is thought provoking.
Here are a few articles from NBC Sports I have contributed to:

If I could give any advice to anyone, it would be cherish your friends and family. Try to be considerate of someone who may be having a difficult time at that point of their lives. Realize everyone makes mistakes. Be accepting of people and know no one is perfect.
As I think back over my life so far, one of my proudest moments was my association with the U. S. Army. It was probably the best time of my life as far as my overall health and my self confidence in myself. I will always look back at that period of my life with great pride. Here is a little sampling of just how fired up I was during that period of time.

I found you. Just started a 5 day R&R.
Hey Dave, great to see you man. I’m starting a 5 day R&R as well. Let’s do lunch one day.
Hey Lew,
Following you back on twitter. I’m an old geek that loves the ‘internets’ too. (60 in Nov)
P.S. and I do respond to ‘real’ DM’s on twitter. There are so many automated direct message twitter tools. It stinks of automation and defeats the whole purpose of social media.
Have a great day anyway. There are still some old schoolers out there. 🙂
Hi Kenton, and thanks so much for your comment. I’m pretty new to Twitter and really trying to figure that out.
Maybe I will learn to “Tweet” one day, but I am pretty stuck on this blog for now. I appreciate you stopping by and I hope you become a fan!
Thanks for the tips for where to go for 4th of July. My husband is working here for the next month so I wasn’t sure where to go since we’re not from here. Happy 4th!
You are very welcome Snomizr…
Enjoy!
