Biggest crush on Winona Ryder starting in high school, when Heathers came out.

Before that, Peter Weller inspired me as hard rocking neurologist, Buckaroo Banzai.

First programming was in Pascal on a Hydra machine (reel to reel computer stack serving 30 stations).

Our guitarist said "I could eat my shoe if I'd like to" on one of our recordings. Before my class graduated HS in 1990.

Class of 1989. I knew it.
