More about me

Hello!

I am a gadget geek, computer nerd, anime freak, enjoy trips to the gym to work out and taking karate classes (2^nd degree Black Belt in Tang Soo Do, hence the screen name). ^__^

---

We like to travel and generally take about four trips a year...either road trips or airline.  This year we went to Ireland, had a road trip out west with our grandsons and are going back to Disney World in November.

---

We have four fantastic grand kids (ages 11, 13, 13, 15) and I spend as much time with them as I can.

---

Other hobbies include reading, cooking, video games, watching movies, model railroading, golfing and messing with digital photography. See my youtube site, http://youtube.com/tangsooapap.

---

I taught at Pennsylvania State University for 37 years, a wonderful job, but I love being retired!

---

I use the same screen name on IM (AOL or Yahoo), facebook, mySpace and youtube
