I've been tagged so I have to tell you 5 things you might not know about me. 

1)  I started my technology career at Ashton Tate (remember dBASE) in the 80's.

2)  I love to clean ... my house, office, your stuff, anything out of order and messy.

3)  I live in pain every day of my life -- extreme pain -- due to a knee problem. 

4)  I want to write a book about my life.

5)  I have asthma.  Just a wiff from a distance of cigarette smoke gives me breathing problems. 

In order to keep the "chain" going I tag Amy Sorokas, Woody Pewitt, Mike Sax, Kate Gregory, and Scott Hanselman.
