I'm Growing Older, But Not Up
Im growing older but not up My metabolic rate is pleasantly stuck Let those winds of time blow over my head Id rather die while Im living than live while Im dead -Jimmy Buffett A Long Time Ago In A Suburb Far Far Away It all started back in 1960. Russia shoots down a U2 Spy Plane flown by Francis Gary Powers. The world's first nuclear-powered aircraft carrier, the U.S.S. Enterprise CVN-65 is launched. John F. Kennedy by a very narrow margin, is the youngest man elected President of the United States. The following month I was born. Life as we know it has not been quite the same since. What I Do During The Day In 1984, after working at mostly entry-level positions I started working in the computer industry at a small retail computer store. The computer industry would become my career as I went on to work at different types of companies and different positions within the industry at different companies. In 2004 I returned to the computer industry after a short absence and work for one of the largest Computer Internet/Mail Order companies in the United States. What I Do During The Night Im on the Internet all day at work and most nights at home. You can find me on BatmanYTB.com most nights. I write a lot of the Action Figure and Toy Reviews on BYTB and also produced Batsterpiece Theatre which is exclusive to BYTB. I also surf other Batman and Comic Book and Toy sites as well as a few Mustang web sites. I like this Batmobile site a lot and one day I hope to own a nice Batmobile like the ones on this site. He Who Dies With The Most Toys Wins? I collect Action Figures and other related Toys. I started about 1990 with four Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and a couple of Batman figures. The collection today is mostly BATMAN and Star Trek Action Figures with G.I. Joe, Aliens, Predator, Spawn, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Toy Story and several others included. A few Star Wars, and some other unique figures round out the collection. Over years the collection has blossomed from a handful of figures in 1990 to almost 2000 and growing. I also collect Die Cast cars, mostly Ford Mustangs, but I also have most of the new Corgi, Johnny Lightning and Hot Wheels Batmobiles too. Im BATMAN! "Batman" was one of my favorite TV programs in the mid Sixties, when I was a kid. In the late 80s and early 90's I collected Batman comic books before turning to collecting action figures. In 1990 I got my first "Batman" costume (as an adult anyway) and wore it a few times. Later I would add a new "Batman and Robin" style bat suit to my collection in 1997 and I also created a "Batman Beyond" style suit in 2000. No Adam West style Batsuit yet, but I'll get one if I get a replica. Weekends I almost always have one of my many Batman T-Shirts or Hats on. My Wallet has the Batman Logo and so does my Key Chain. My Cell phone has the Batman TV Theme for both Ring Tones and Call Tones, so not only do I hear the theme song when it rings, so do people calling me. I've lurked here a bit and just started to post.
