Who R U?


A while back Garfish mentioned he lked the idea of getting to know some of us better.As no one has started a thread like this before I will take the plunge.I have been involved in and read many heated exchanges here in AudioGon.I hope no one attacks me for this thread saying "who cares about you,this is audio" Anyway,Im 45 and live in W.N.Y.I have never been married but have a music loving 11 year old daughter who lives with me.I have been a nurse for 20 years.Before that I was a Navy Corpsman for several years.I recently became engaged (first time) to a beautiful 30 year old music loving woman.At my age a 30 year old is a keeper and I have never been happier!! My other interests??Im into vinyl,who has time for anything else??

Great to see so many in "my age bracket". I just turned 47 on 1/6/03. I have been into this hobby since my early teens, growing up in the Buffalo area. My single biggest audio epiphany was hearing how good a high power sound system could be made to sound in less than ideal conditions: the Grateful Dead's Wall of Sound PA!! I'll be a Bills fan till the day I die :) Went to college in Boston 1974-1979, and continued to live in New England until returning to the Buffalo area for grad school in 1986. My profession is as a librarian/IT professional. I have lived in South Carolina and Hershey, PA since leaving Buffalo for the second time. I currently live just outside of Philadelphia on the NJ side of the Delaware River. I have a son who is a college freshman, and a 5 year old daughter who started kindergarten this year. My wife is supportive of this insane hobby of mine in as much as is possible. We have a Shetland Sheepdog (Sheltie) by the name of Charli.
My other passions besides my family and audio are fly fishing and skiing
