There really isn't much to see here right now.  I've been busy with other stuff.

Ever wondered what I do for a living?  You must be really bored.  Anyway, here's a link to my boss's web site that explains some of the stuff we do in Anesthesia Research at the Dallas VA Medical Center.  If you look hard enough, you can find a photo of me with a goofy "soul patch" beard.  What was I thinking?!

For the really sleep-deprived, here's my Home-Brewed Front Panel USB/Firewire ports.

Here are the results of my search for information on how to put together a "silent" compressor for airbrush use.  

Here are a few links to "Stuff I Like"
Legos and Lego CAD
I have been a fan of Lego brand building bricks since I was 6 years old.  While I have little time to actually get them out and build anything, I have found the next best thing: Computer-Aided-Design software that allows creation of virtual Lego models.
LDraw.org
Site devoted to the LDraw CAD software created by the late James Jessiman
Lugnet.com
Lego Users Group Network.  A place to learn about Lego stuff.  "The Friendliest Place on the Internet."  Yes, you may have seen me wearing a Lugnet t-shirt.
Lego.com
'nuff said
Brickshelf.com
Check out the Gallery to see what people with too much time on their hands, and too many Legos, can come up with
Just about anything computer-related
Yes, I have been a "computer geek" since I was in high school.  A friend of the family owned a florist shop.  He had this cool new program for his Radio Shack TRS-80 computer called "VisiCalc."  It was a "spreadsheet," whatever that meant.  He basically said, "You're taking that computer class in school.  Here, read this manual and tell me how to work this program to keep my books."  VisiCalc was the precursor for Lotus 1-2-3, MS Excel, and Borland Quattro Pro.  That was the beginnings of my geekery.   Here are a few links to some of my most-often-used computer sites.
