I never got to do any of that.

I didn't really get into agriculture until I came to college. Showed a heifer for extra credit and after that it was dairy cows 24/7.

That's awesome. It became a passion of mine without intent. One of those things that just hooks ya. I find out new and interesting stuff about you guys everyday. Someone needs to shoot me some short bios so I know who is who and what said person does.

I feel bad for asking but feel worse not knowing.

Well, I'm 21, I graduate in May from Ohio State with my BS in Agriculture, Animal Sciences major with Dairy Certificate. My dad worked for GM for 30 years, my mom was an accountant. I'm a Student Vehicle Operator for Ohio State's Department of Transportation and Traffic Management which is a fancy term for transit bus driver. Dairy cows and cars are basically my life.

Outskirts of Littleton iirc. Landed in denver but stayed in a county called delta? It was confusing. Prettiest place ive ever been in my life....Gods Country.


As for me? Im 28 years old and hold a degree in high school studies:sad:
I own a Jewlry Store and another retail location. 5 years ago my only possessions could fit in the back of my Honda civic. I believe there is a man some where watching out for me.

I'll hunt anything with four legs in exception to horses...they catch hell

I am a redneck......but not the bs hillie crap portrayed by ignorant people and the liberal media. I may fight, cuss and raise hell occasionally but I respect my God, my mother along with my elders and i refer to them as mam and sir. I pull over for ambulances and funeral processions; I open the door for anyone..not just for women. I take my hat off at the table and always put my hand on my heart for our anthem. And I love this country but fear where it may be going.

I may have said more about how I feel then who I am but I think they run hand in hand so judge me if you must.


It was a loooong day today. I actually kinda missed you guys:sad:

Looks like a car that will never be made honestly. Very edgy, I appreciate the design but looks like a Mantide and Pagani with some Transformers thrown in haha.

Always good to learn more about all of you. I spent a couple months in Southern Colorado, hated being there, loved the area. I would have no qualms about retiring in northern Colorado, although the better half prefers Idaho, I can see Boise in the future given the opportunity.

Yup, Civil Engineer. Bachelor's of Science from UTSA. Started at UT Austin, but had too much fun my freshman year while I was in the Longhorn Band (played TUBA!) and my third year when I was in an apartment with my high school buddy, so decided to come back home and finish up. It may have taken me a little longer than normal (6.5 years, including the semester I took off) but I learned a lot of valuable lessons from my mistakes.

I work for an engineering firm in Spring Branch (the one north of San Antonio, not the Spring Branch near Houston) designing high-voltage lines (138kV and 345kV) mostly for Oncor (the utility provider for the DFW area, and much of north and west Texas).

I believe we are a direct competitor to Pike's engineering side, but we don't have any construction crews - just engineering and surveying. I have a pretty significant aversion to heights, so being on a construction crew never would have worked out very well for me I have all the respect in the world for those guys, but I'm relatively certain they possess a small amount of insanity to be able to enjoy that work
