Great interview Buzz, errr, John! So Drew Carey is wrong when he says "Cleveland Rocks???????
I can relate to the all female except for you household as well. On a serious note, I appreciate the patience and advice you give this rookie and for being one of many that make this place GREAT! It is not surprising that you have such a fine family. Enjoy that new house and remember to get those girls their own lathe if they can't have a horse!

Beautiful family John! Enjoyed the interview! Can't blame you for
wanting to live outside cleveland, the few months I lived there as
a kid was spent in the hospital from being run over by a drunk cab driver....
You are an example & influence (good) on most of us at the Creek
with your posts & beautiful turnings..
Joh, it is a pleasure to get to know more about you. Truely one of the "Nice" guys on SMC. Always willing to lend a hand and information etc. You are definitely an asset to SMC,

Nice to get to know you a little better John. I almost feel like I've talked to you on the phone.... oh wait a minute... I have talked to you on the phone. You have a great looking family there and looks like you are creating some great memories for your children to cherish.
Thanks for all your help, inspiration, and generosity.

You're an inspiration, John. And I'm honored to know you.
However - Assuming that your listing of past professional endeavors was essentially chronological, and factoring in your age, time in the nav, etc; I've estimated that your stint in men's clothing sales was coincident with the heyday of disco.
The resultant mental image thusly generated of a 67" tall twenty-something dude threaded out in three acre lapels, parachute bellbottoms, other assorted sartorial embellishments, and lotsa gold chains hanging off your neck is just too darn painful.
