"A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an
invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write
a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort
the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve
equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer,
cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization
is for insects."
-- Lazarus Long, kilt-wearer, in Robert A. Heinlein's
Time Enough for Love

A dedicated (if not particularly talented) dart
player, Jeff is Vice President and webmaster for the Pittsburgh
Dart Association. He and his family provide a foster home for
parrots from the Pittsburgh chapter of the Parrot
Education and Adoption Center. Their love of animals doesn't
end there--they also have a dog, cat, 3 snakes, and the occasional
mischief of rats.
Born and raised in Western Pennsylvania, Jeff has always pursued
a variety of interests. Hunting, fishing, and motorcycling take
him outdoors, while cooking and beer
brewing are favorite indoor activities.
"A sewing machine is just another kind of power tool,"
says Jeff, who began sewing in high school. It wasn't until the
challenge of making kilts came along, however, that he got serious
about sewing. Previously, it would be more likely to find him using
a table saw and a router. (Not surprisingly, his band-aid usage
rate has dropped sharply). |
