I am an old Hippie turned Geek (in the USA).  I am a builder by habit.  I was a Carpenter in the 80's, turned Electronics & Manufacturing Tech in the 90's, which was when I got my first IBM Clone PC.  Mostly a Windoze guy till May-2016 when I started using Linux Mint as my primary OS.  Dabbled occasionally in other distros of Linux before that for several years, but that was when I really became a Linux user.  I also like Movies & Music (many genres), and I am an avid swimmer.
