Hi, the toolhound here. I usually go by computwitch or toolhound, my cb handle. I was referred to the site by mr weisenberger, who is an active member in the LDS deep doctrine section of the site. he felt I would have some good insight to add, and I agreed.
About me: I grew up a member of the LDS church in southern idaho and served a mission in san bernadino california between 1990 aND 1992 while my future wife and high school sweetheart served her mission in virginia. I then went to idaho state university and graduated with an associates degree in electromechanical technology (robotics), married my wife in the idaho falls temple, and moved to southern utah where I have been ever since. I spent 10 years in the army national guard, and have a brother who enlisted right when my time was up and is now over in iraq.
By trade, I am a utah residential journeyman electrician ( 2 year license, known as a class b wireman in other states) and an SBCA certified dish network and directv satellite dish installer and repairman. before becoming an electrician, I spent 5 years in warehousing and related industries. currently, I wire houses 1 day a week to keep my electrician license active and install satellite dishes the other 5 days a week. I am the father of three children: a 10 year old son, a 6 year old girl, and a baby due to be born any minute now who will be a daughter if the ultrasound is right.
my hobbies include composing piano music, building and networking home computers, and talking on/listening to my cb radios and police scanner. I am currently studying to get my technecian class ham radio license.
I have been accused of teaching the lesson in church from the back row on numerous occasions, and routinely teach elders quorum. I hope to have some good input to add here both in the doctrine section and in the music sections as well.
