Default Introductions thread

Name - Robert Walker - Aussie Bob.

Age - 36

Sex - Male

Status - Married for 13 years to an amazing women, and have 5 wonderful children.

Interests - Love the internet, and working online helping folks etc.

Occupation - Full-time Webhost, part-time Builder of own home.

Greatest accomplishment - Staying married for near 13 years, and loving my wife more and more each year. My 5 children I deeply adore, and I'm so proud of the people they're becoming.

Up there too is my previous hosting company that I built from scratch in 2001, and sold in 2004. I'm very proud of HTTPme. We broke new ground with that business model, and proved so many nay-sayers wrong.

Greatest dissapointment - Losing my building company in 1997, during a downturn in the building industry. Losing our 2 properties, cars, and self confidence/respect was devestating.

Life Goal - To dance the tango with my wife at our Great Grandchildren's weddings.

I guess to sum me up (if that's possible), I've worked very hard all my life, and experienced some highs and lows. There's been some bruises sure, but that's part of life. There's also been some amazing triumphs, and great joy.

I'm a casual and happy chap. I've been described as even keeled, as I don't get too emotional over things, and tend to stay fairly even. Being a parent to 5 children is an awesome responsibility, and one that myself and Wendy (Mrs Aussie Bob) take very seriously. It is our passion to provide them with the very best upbringing possible, in a warm and loving home, and watch them grow and become happy people.

Well, that's me. What about you?

Name - Joshua Powell ( Josh -- Joshua when I'm naughty )

Age - 35

Sex - Male

Status - Single

Interests - internet, antiques, visiting markets and fairs, shopping, collecting Murano glass and Kosta Boda.

Occupation - I'm in the middle of a transition ( call it an early mid-life crisis perhaps ). I have worked for several years as a business consultant. I've dabbled in various online services as well. Prior to that for several years in the hosting industry both as a support tech and also owning my own hosting business. Before the internet came along in it's present form I was an antique dealer, and that seems to be where my interests are heading again. I owned my very first business when I was 17 and that was a chocolate shop ( yes, I am a chocaholic )

Greatest accomplishment - I have too many accomplishments and really cannot single out one as the greatest.

Greatest dissapointment - Losing almost everything in the dot com crash.

Life Goal - Just to enjoy every day to it's fullest.

I'm in the process of moving from Australia to the UK right now and am really looking forward to being able to explore Europe

Name - Justin Franklin

Age - 23

Sex - Male

Status - Single and ready to mingle

Interests - Web design, filming, music and most of all horses!

Occupation - Camera-man (learning) and produce DVDs and web designer.

Greatest accomplishment - Waking up today and getting to know Jesus.

Greatest dissapointment - Letting that one girl get away.

Life Goal - To always stay level-headed and help others as much as I can.

I just graduated from college in December '04 with a degree in Computer Science. I skipped graduation to go to a horse show in Ft. Worth, TX and a gentleman that I had know in the horse industry for a long time was looking for someone to help him at these big national horse events - he does all the filming - so since I love horses and this would give me a great opportunity - I went to work for him. I am learning how to do camera work and currently produce all the DVDs on the computer. So that is where I am at currently - I love my job.

I was raised by great parents who will have thier 40th wedding anniversary this year and have had a lot of help throughout my life. I hope to get to know more of everyone on this board!

Josh, Justin, Mateo, Rik and Paige, thank you so much for posting your intro.

There's some great stories there, that could literally fill books!

Makes you realise that people are interesting, and the different paths we take on this journey called life. I find people's stories to be fascinating.

Keep them coming please, or feel free to elaborate some more.
