Hello everyone!!! For those of you that have been on here for a while you may know me as Brad... If not ya do now!

I am 26 years old with 2 daughters and a son on the way. I am currently employed at a newspaper in KY. I would give you a job title but I have many, everything from journalist, network administrator to assistant publisher, I do a little bit of everything.

I went to MSU and EKU, changing my major many times before going into art, majoring in photography and graphic design. (Was originally pre-med, go figure??).

I feel that our educational system is somewhat of a let down, I dropped out of high school my junior year. I felt I hadn't learned anything since the 8th grade. (The same year I was recognized in the National achievements of Science and Math, basically a who's who of science and math students country wide). Within 3 months I had a very nice high paying job (about 5 times what I make now) but I wasn't happy.

So I decided to go to college. I took the G.E.D. and missed 2 questions total. So I took the ACT. I attended college on an Honor's scholarship. (I did very well on the ACT)

A lot of people call me McGuiver, because I am a basic jack of all trades, master of none. My father is a HVAC tech, so I learned electronics and plumbing, with basic pnematic and hydrolic functions.

My friends all say that if it has wheels or tracks I can drive it, if it has a propeller I can pilot it. I took flight lessons when I was younger and almost any kind of equipment, from tractors and bulldozers to boats and forklifts I have driven or piloted, depending on which the case may be at one time or another in my life.
I have been married for the last 7 years.

I am invovled in many communtiy functions, including coaching t-ball, umpiring etc.

I have far too many hobbies to try to list....Let's just say that when I get bored I go to the library or book store and learn a new one, I can weld, repair motors, garden, build robots (and many other electronic devices) and do many other things...I can even crochette and knit if I take the notion too.

I have really enjoyed the conversations here at ats and the way that it honestly challenges the mind. We have a lot of brilliant people here.

O.K. I have rattled on enough, if anyone wants to know anything else, feel free to ask me.
