That's me on the left.
I'm originally from San Antonio, Texas, grew up in Anchorage, Alaska, graduated from high school in San Antonio and even did a bit of college at A&M. I went on to work at AT&T (SBC at the time) in San Antonio and then St. Louis for about 8 years before winding up in sunny California working for the best company in the world.
I'm a no-drama kind of guy. It's occasionally fun to watch on TV, but most real-life drama is just people wasting time fretting about stupid shit. I could never be a politician. Politics is just a different kind of drama. There's a reason benevolent dictatorships tend to be the most effective forms of government.
I live in San Jose, near Milpitas.
If you're into social networking, I also have profiles on MySpace (ick), Orkut (only because I work for Google), and Facebook (preferred).

My California relocation
Relocating is stressful. While Google did pretty much everything they could to make it painless, it was still painful. This is my experience.

California Drivin'

California Livin'
So I'm finally moved. Google made the process fairly painless for me, but it was still a very stressful month. And it's not over yet. I thought I'd take a moment to share my experiences so far.
