Cowboy by birth, Geek by choice, hardcore Fourbyer all the way. I am Tex.
I'm an assistant Systems Administrator for a series of small Texas based mental health clinics, (believe me it sounds better than it is...).
My big hobbies are 4x4ing in my truck, a little mud here and there really relieves alot of stress.
I build and repair PC's and I'm a die-hard Unreal Tournament player.
Lately I've been trying to learn Linux, and I'm not doing too bad I suppose.
The Simpsons TV show nut...
Avid gun-collector, not a killer, just a collector.
