Ok, I've put this off long enough. I'm Mike D. Originally from Strasburg IL, pop 450. I'm 33, married to Amy, the perfect woman for me. We have 3 kids, and a dog that thinks she's a person. I joined the Navy in Dec 94 got out in Dec 98 and came back in in Sept 01. I grew up on a farm where we grew corn and soybeans. Since farming doesn't pay very well, I joined the Navy to keep from having to farm and work a factory or constructon job. My first 4 years were spent on the USS Springfield. Some crappy issues on the boat pissed me off with 6 months left, pair that with getting back together with my high school sweetheart, and I got out. Went to work in a factory, where I was a welder for almost 3 years. I married the woman I was seeing. She turned into a real bitch and I left her a year later. I made up my mind to get back in the Navy and was just waiting to go when I met Amy. We shacked up for a couple of months, thinking it was just a short term thing, since I was recently divorced, and she was going through hers. Three months after we got together we got married. I actually went UA to go get our marrage liscense and have a small wedding. We ended up in Groton on the USS Seawolf. Four years there and 2 promotions later I wound up at subscol. While on the 'Wolf we had Alex, the Spawn of Satan. He's my little man and was meant for the farm NOT the city. While at subscol I met Cheeks and sold him my first Jeep. Shortly after that he and a few others started JT4X4. I came along for the ride and helped get it where it is today. I'm not as active as I want to be. Three kids and a wife that's a college student are my first priority, the Navy is second, then everything else. I'm addicted to wheeling and PC gaming. I'm on my third Jeep. The First was Cheeks' smurfette - '92 YJ, the second was the Heap an '80 CJ7 built by someone else with a 350 bowtie that I couldn't ever get to run right, and Now I have my last Jeep an '97 Sport. When Amy becomes a Nurse I'm going to turn it into a monster, but for now it's pretty much just the way I want it. That's me in a nutshell.
