A male nurse experienced with REALLY big guns, I love it!

Too old to work in the fire service?  Naw!  I used to fight fires in Alaska with a guy who was even older, he also had had a quadruple bypass surgery...  Come to think of it, we used to worry like hell about him on the fire ground.  Also worked with a couple of grey haired old laidies, but they could hold their own pretty well.
I also do wood working.

Wow...I feel like i'm filling out an application for a job at Burger King....  

Your Aces High call sign? It's significance? Tuck.  My fraternity nickname that's stuck with me since college. (TKE for life.)

Your Aces High squad? Was the Lawndarts, but after many many years, it finally fizzled out, and I'm flying solo.

Your name? Scott

Your age? 33

Your Email? fscottthomas@earthlink.net or tuck0006@aol.com

Where do you live? Currently assigned to Virginia

Where else have you lived? Georgia, Pennsylvania, England, and originally from Chattanooga, Tennessee.

What do you do for a living? U.S. Deptartment of Justice

What is your marital/family status? Single, never married (I'm too ugly.)

What schools have you attended? U.T.

What degrees do you have? B.S. CRMJ/POLS

What are your hobbies? Aviation (Duh.)

What other flight sims have you been involved in? Your call sign and squad in that sim? AW.  Tuck

Do you have any other connection to aviation or WWII? Private pilot (Cherokee).  I've ALWAYS loved WWII aircraft, even as a little kiddie...It's what got me into aviation in the first place.

Other interesting things about yourself. I was born a poor black child in Alabama, but was adopted by Michael Jackson and look as I do today thanks to his patented skin treatment.  I escaped from the Jackson compound when he bought the remains of the Elephant Man, and joined a traveling circus.  I was employed as the servant for the midget troupe that traveled with the show for a number of years, but left because I got tired of all the "big people" jokes.  I was engaged to be married after leaving the circus and starting school at U.T., but she was mangled by a pack of rabid gophers before the wedding, and I've been the single old bastard that I am today since.  
:D

Huh, just saw this thread and hey- I'm late to jump on the boat, but better late than never, eh? 'sides.. Tuck was late too. :D

My nickname in game is Kesolei, though everyone shortens it to 'kes' or 'keso'. kes are my initials, and 'solei' is french for sun. Slap it together and- You get kesolei!

I'm a member of the JG3 in the CT, and I stay as far away from the MA as is possible. So I eh, don't have a squad there. ;)

My name is Kaylan (K-lan, as someone spelled it in a very old yearbook of mine..), and I'm a youngin'. Coming up on 20, and I live in Southwest Michigan, which is actually pretty nice despite being yankee-land. Its the only place I've ever lived, really, which is kinda sad.. but hey, I'm young and this is home. Within the next year or two I'll be transplanting myself down to either Kentucky or D/FW in Texas, we'll see what happens!

I'm a student right now, but I do a lot of volunteer work at a local equestrian center that lets under-priveledged and at-risk kids get up on a horses back for an hour and learn a bit about them.. which is always fun. I also play substitute art-teacher at my old high-school when Jill's going to be gone.

I am currently with everyone's favorite Macchi, unfortunately separated by distance while I finish up some stupid stuff up here, aaand hopefully we'll be married within the next few years. :) T'would be the plan anyway. Together we've got 3 youngin's, 2 boys and a girl.. I don't envy him dealing with them alone right now. :eek:

I'm an artist in my freetime and have sold (yay!) 1 oil painting in my career, and have had that same piece used to advertise a local art-hop as well as a local art show (which it was in, then traveled with a selected few around the state). I've also been asked to do the cover for a book, although not much has materialized out of that /yet/.. I do all types of stuff though, 2d, 3d and textile.. s'all good to me! :) My other love is Horses, both riding and just playing around in the pastures with them.

Aces is my first flight sim, after having listened to Macchi talk about it since practically the first conversation 2 years ago.. (okay, maybe not the *first* one, but it seemed like it!) he finally convinced me to give it a shot and I'm hooked. Now he has to shaaare. Hahaha! ;)

That's prolly enough about me, so, I'm done. :)

Ah, wait. Picture.


There, that'd be me. Yes, its cut off.. but you try taking a photo of yourself using the bathroom counter as the tripod! It aint easy, let me tell you..
