Biography

I wish I were an expert in:
speaking a foreign language, i took french in high school but have had few chances to practice it since then aside from watching subtitled movies.
Dream jobs:
being a writer, a novelist. would enjoy writing a best-selling novel about historical fiction where i become the biographer for a famous person and we do plenty of traveling.
About me
graduated from the university of iowa with a degree in history. enjoy reading books about baseball and history, attend plenty of minnesota twins and st. paul saints games each year.

Science in my life

What is science to you?
a class that wasn't my best in school, my college roommate was much better at it, as a physics major and good with computers as well.
I would invent
inventions don't have to be high-tech to be useful and popular. i'm trying to think of how my life would be made easier and what invention would accomplish that. i do my best to keep my life simple wherever possible.
Technology I love
CD and DVD players, i like movies and music, enjoy going to concerts.
Technology that drives me crazy
sometimes the computer at work does, hard to get work done when it's down.
What technology do you use every day?
the computer to get my work done.
What math do you use every day?
balancing a checkbook.
