My Personal Page

When I'm not doing my day job as Network Administrator for the Institute for Foreign Policy Analysis I can be found watching movies in my home theater, working on various client web sites or reading Harry Potter fanfiction. I commute to Cambridge from our home in Rhode Island each day which gives me lots of time on the train to read.

I have upgraded my home theater. All of my video and audio signals are now pushed through a Denon AVR3806 with the new HDMI connectors. This unit is the heart of my system.
My primary high definition DVD player is now the Toshiba HD-DVD A2. My other DVD player is made by OPPO and I used it to upconvert my regular DVD's and it does a wonderful job.
Even my projector got upgraded. To get the picture on the screen I use an Optoma HD7100 which is a HD 720p DLP® home theater projector and a studio-quality imaging processor featuring Texas Instruments' DarkChip3™ technology.

I also maintain the web site for the online support group Husbands Out to their Wives (HOW). A wonderful, caring group of gay and bisexual guys from all over the world who share the ups and downs of Mixed Orientation Marriage. My wife Ruth is a wonder and a constant joy in my life and I don't tell her often enough and I'm a very lucky man in that she continues to keep me around.

Growing up in northern Maine irreversibly instilled in me a love for the out-of-doors. Ruth & I both enjoy camping, hiking and kayaking the rivers lakes & harbors of New England.

My son (Jason) and daughter (Kelly) are now both living in Florida. I'm very proud of them both.
