Abut Me

Known to my online friends as Torch I have been involved with the online community since the beginnings of the internet. I even ran a bulletin board called Torches Light when the internet was in it's infancy. My first computer was a Commodore 64. I have had some Basic and COBOL programming education back when we were using TRS80's. I ran Torches Light on a 386SX IBM compatible pc running Quarterdeck's Deskview actually multitasking when windows 3.1 could hardly run more than a couple of programs at a time. Using two 1200 baud modems and two phone lines I could actually dial out and log onto my BBS on the other line to check how it was running.

I am a member of the 7.62 gaming squad which is currently playing a lot of Swat4. I have been involved with many gaming forums including the NovaWorld game forum.

I have authored an article for Ezine @rticles entitled, "What Makes a Great Website?". It explains the differences between a mediocre web site and a great web site.

I was born at the Sacred Heart Hospital in Eugene Oregon in February of 1964. After graduating the seventh grade I moved to Euless Texas to live with my father. I graduated from Trinity High School in 1982. After working a few years in the printed circuit board manufacturing business I got into the automotive service industry. I am currently working as a Service Advisor at one of the areas larger Ford stores.

I married my high school sweet heart Sonia Ashford in 1982 as well. We reside in Bedford Texas. I have six children, one daughter, Sarah Fuhrmann, and five boys. Currently I have one granddaughter from my daughter and one grandson from my son Jacob.

I enjoy playing online first person shooters, reading, mountain biking, music, and working with computers.
