Another IT geek, here. Programmer with the company known to many as "The Mouse". Actually a very progressive and enjoyable company to work for, with great benefits and a fun work atmosphere.
Hobbies are playing hammered and mountain dulcimer, doing websites for Girl Scouts and others, and tutoring in ESL. I have pretty much been a part of a Mexican family for several years, now, tutoring the father and visiting the rest of the family in Mexico several times. Great food and fun!

By day: Assistant Producer/Education Coordinator of a planetarium, which means that I do school planetarium shows for kids PK-12 (and the public too), as well as photograph, develop and produce hundreds of 35mm slides for planetarium shows.
By night: I do Slumber Parties, which are fun Ladies Night Out's. I show off lotions and lingerie and things that go buzz in the night *wink wink* in the MD/DC/VA area. Go to www.SlumberPartiesbyKatherineKidwell.com for more info :-)
Hobbies: Belly dancing, reading, mythology
No power in the 'verse can stop me!

A lot of the stuff I'd like to grow does not like winter here. Something about a killing frost just makes citrus and figs throw in the towel. I can't even get rosemary to overwinter at this latitude.
We do, however, get kick-ass apples. It's a trade-off.
The next time you devour a ripe mango you just plucked from your own back yard, think of me.
I simply cannot look at your avatar without thinking "Electric Broccoli".

Will do. Plenty of mango blossoms right now. At night the air is heavy with the aroma.
We have about a dozen old growth mango trees (about 100-150 years old). The fruit is small, but the trees produce some serious tonnage. Each tree is about 100' tall and has an 8' foot trunk.
I like Electric Broccoli!

I have a 15 acre farm here on the Hamakua coast of the Big Island of Hawaii. We're trying to get our carbon foot print to as close to zero as possible. I also love SCUBA diving. If I'm going to leave these islands, it is for either a film gig or a dive trip.
How is the vog affecting you there? I've read a few stories in the last year in the Star Bulletin about the vog just decimating all these farms. Hope it's not too bad at where you are.
BTW, great stuff you're doing on Love & Sax. Was blown away the first time I read about the project on TechHui. Keep up the great work!

The vog was bad for about two weeks here on the Hamakua, but Ka'u and South Kona had it really bad.
Mahalo for the kudos. I really can't wait to get it done!

I get paid for doing tech support in a call center. When I'm not doing that, I'm making movies. Someday I'll get paid for that, but probably not very soon.
