I'm one of those who still rolls my socks... and if I'm packing, I roll the rest of my clothes too.

Make my son do push ups, write RBIs and line up rocks like I did when I got in trouble. So many things I learned in the military I still do.

I have used my skills for about 25 years with National Short-track racing programs and will be doing it for 2014 too, One of the top World of Outlaw Sprint Car Team, owners and driver was told by the owner of East Bay that I was the best forecaster ever. I worked at Q-105 in Tampa at the time and we salvaged many programs by a more proactive approach to the weather.</p><p><br></p><p>I mostly enjoy the Physics of weather and will be furthering my education at Embry Riddle. My one commander wanted me to go through the AECP while I was in, but really didn't know if it was for me then.</p>Response by SSgt Private RallyPoint Member made Dec 30 at 2013 11:42 PM2013-12-30T23:42:47-05:002013-12-30T23:42:47-05:002013-12-16T12:01:33-05:00
