Lastly, I have a few games on 3.5" floppy that I somehow acquired: Battle Chess, first version of PGA Golf, and the strategy game Empire, of the '80s.

Internet Relay Chat (IRC)

I also chat online frequently: I use mIRC, Pirch, and Visual IRC '98. I usually use the nick NipponDSM. Nippon stands for my location (Nippon means 'Japan' in japanese), and DSM is for Diamond Star Motors, the three-manufacturer consortium of the '90s. In this case, DSM does NOT stand for 'dominance-sadomasochism'.

I chat at these places:

EFNET at #eech
irc.mdsog.net on #dsm (see my car page for more info on this)

I use ICQ to chat with friends. My ICN is 3765104.

I use AIM to chat with family and friends.

I also have IPhone/Webphone, which I haven't used yet because most of my friends don't have it.

I sometimes use FireTalk, which is a text and voice chat client. I also use Roger Wilco, which is a voice chat client.

Future Employment

I've recently attended Central Texas College to receive my AS in Mirco-Computer Technology. I would like to specialize in Programming but am beginning to lean toward Unix system administrator or maybe webmastering. I've tried hacking code and it is sometimes very difficult for me. I want employment where I can actually enjoy what I do. Programming is OK, but math isn't my strong suit and I have to be constantly on my toes when coding.

I've also been offered employment at a computer security consulting firm that my brother-in-law works for. In preparation for this job, I'm schooling myself in perl, TCP/IP, networking essentials, firewalls, C/C++ refamiliarization, and Linux/Unix basics. It seems I have to know a bit of everything! That's fine by me. I'm also going through a self-course of MCSE, Windows 2000 Pro so I can become certified when I return to the US. I think MCSE is a bit overboard but my brother-in-law says the credentials will be good to have. I have the feeling I'll soon get bored reading and studying MCSE, so I also am trying to study A+ certification. A+ doesn't seem as dry. Maybe MCSE-W2000Pro wouldn't be so hard to learn if I had the actual OS on my system. Kinda hard to teach how to use an OS using a book only. Maybe it's time to splurge for Windows 2000, eh?

My resumes are listed on my Bio page.
