Hello, I am Pyrogen.

Current and Former Locations

[edit]

I currently live in Sparta, Tennessee. I have traveled extensively through the years, allowing me to live in various places, including some rather strange ones. Places I have been include:

Woodbury, Minnesota
Minneapolis, Minnesota
Sapphire Princess
Diamond Princess
Puerto Vallarta, Mexico
Vancouver, British Columbia
Memphis, Tennessee
Kenosha, Wisconsin
Saint Petersburg, Florida
Largo, Florida
Palm Harbor, Florida
Oldsmar, Florida
Clearwater, Florida
Pinellas Park, Florida

I spent summers growing up in O'Fallon, Illinois, which is a small town.

How Do You Live on a Cruise Ship?

[edit]

From 2008 to 2009, I was a resident computer instructor aboard the Diamond and Sapphire Princesses. While most passengers leave after a week or so, I stayed from month to month much like a crew-member. Its odd to live on a cruise ship.

Professional Knowledge Set

[edit]

For those pages that I edit, between this and my userboxes, you should get an understanding of my position in editing security, firearms, and defensive tactics related articles.

I currently work as a freelance web developer from my home in Sparta. I retired after the effects of Congestive Heart Failure impacted my abilities to run around cities meeting with clients, doing physical computer and networking installs, and the other assorted rigors of working for a IT consultancy firm.

Formerly, I served as VP of a protective services company based in Florida, and have been a security consultant to clients in Minnesota, Tennessee, Florida, Washington, and Alabama.

I am conversant in 'Chapter 493, Florida State Statutes', as well as various chapters encompassing the "Criminal Code" of the State of Florida. Chapter 493 is considered the "Florida Private Security, Private Investigation, and Recovery Act," and governs private security officers in the State of Florida who work either armed or for contract companies.

Operation Flashpoint and ARMA / ARMA II

[edit]

I like OFP. A lot. I still like OFP, but then they came out with ARMA II. I still play ARMA, though.

Commodore 64s

[edit]

I have owned, on and off, a Commodore 64 of some variety (Version 1, 2, or 3) since I was 7 years old. To me, the C64 is part of my childhood, and through VICE, a C64 Emulator, I'm glad to say that I can still play with it.

I am active (as much as anyone) on the Quantum Link Reloaded system, usually going into Chat Connection with my screen name "WanderingEnder," and you can find me at odd hours poking my head in.

My Huge List of Userboxen

[edit]

I keep a Userboxen farm. Its over there on the right hand side. I happen to like Wikipedia:Userboxes, they're cute and straight to the point.

While some people hate userboxen, I am of the personal opinion that it is better to show our bias and affiliations in our user pages, than on the articles of which we contribute and/or edit. I'm quite sure that there's a Wikipedia Guideline for that, but I'd have to find it.

I am currently pruning my userboxen farm to ensure that only well made userboxen are displayed.
