Marital Status: Married with 2 wonderful kids.

Years of Bowling:
22 years

Occupation:
Design Engineer at Essex Engine Plant (FoMoCo)

I started Bowling:
again to participate in the Ford League over 20 years ago after a lengthy layoff from having Bowled (and set pins) as a junior.

Early role models:
Earl Anthony for just plain getting the job done with minimal effort.

Current Projects:
The design, development, implementation and maintenance of www.CanBowl.com as well as this web site.

Most memorable bowling moment:
Sparing the 1-2-4-10 "washout" in the first game of my 806 series. It didn't seem all that important at the time because I try to spare everything anyway. Now when I look back, this is what stands out the most for me.

Most forgettable bowling moment:
The first time I seen myself Bowl on Video tape. This was a shock to say the least. It was not what I expected.

What I like best about bowling:
The interesting blend of skill and luck that the game has. No matter how good you are, you have to have both elements to succeed. Also the many friendships I have attained through bowling over the years.

Bowling goals:
To obtain more honour scores and to be recognized for all my achievements while only bowling predominately once a week.

One thing nobody knows about me:
It's still a secret.

My advice to aspiring bowlers: Strive to be as good as you can be in everything that you do. Getting better at anything takes work so don't expect things to happen by themselves or to be quick.  If your not ready to work harder for what you want then be satisfied with what you have. Above all enjoy the game and make sure you're sanctioned.

If I could change one thing about bowling it would be:
The IMAGE of the game/sport. It bothers me deeply to see the lack of respect this sport has attained when compared to other comparable sports.

Favourite movie:
StarWars (I'm a special effects nut)

Favourite "pig-out" food:
I don't have any.

The one thing that everyone has tried except me:
Drugs and Alcohol. Ok, Ok, so it is two things.

The one word that describes me best:
Determined.

Favourite hobbies:
Chess, Computers, Bowling, and Computers. I also like Computers.  :o)

Pet peeves:
People that are all talk and no action. They say they will but don't. These people are often unreliable and usually good at  providing "lip service".
