Name is Jon Oldham. I'm 27 years old and I'm from Long Beach, NY (South Shore of Long Island), but I'm getting my MBA full time at The University of Arizona in Tucson, AZ (yes, my car has made 2 cross country trips so far, soon to be 3). I'm focusing my MBA studies on Finance and Management Information Systems. I got my bachelors degree in Business Administration from The University at Albany in '94, and worked for 5 years as a loan officer for 3 different commercial finance companies before going back to school full time to get my MBA. I specialized in mid to large sized asset based loans, typically used for leverage buy-outs, mergers, and bankruptcy financing.

When I finish my MBA, I would like to work in corporate finance as a senior financial analyst for a major airline or aerospace company.

On my free time, I love to work on and drive my 1970 Corvette with a modified 454, downhill snow skiing, and go boating and water skiing on my '98 Glastron GS180 bowrider. Occassionally play some golf too.

Hi,
My name is Joe Canhoto. I'm 32. I live in Waterloo Ontario Canada and I'm a software developer for a medical imaging firm here in town.

Own a 98 Silverfrost GL v6.

PS. Hey tboner, Sun rules. Got a line on any old sparc'y 1/2s kicking around for cheap?

Brad Noon, 28, owner of Silvie, a '99 SE MTX with to many mods to list. After graduating college in '93 with an AAS in Telecommunications and an AAS in computer networking, I've been in the lucrative telecom/computer field ever since. Now working for Lighthouse communications (http://www.lh.net), I have a lot more responsibility being a Facilities Manager/Operations Tech, leaving me with precious little spare time. In my spare time, I enjoy snowmobile racing (drag racing since I was 9 or 10)), hot rods/street machines, and I am in the final stages of opening my business, http://www.bnmotorsports.com

I enjoy modifying my own car as well as helping others understand how to mod their own car. I hope to see all of you at a CEG meet this year as last year's national was a blast.

Later,

Brad Noon

My name is Chul Schwanke. I am 37 and live in the Minneapolis MN area. I am a social worker - work at Hennepin County in adoptions and also work with Minneapolis Public Schools. I am 2 years out of Grad school and two jobs keep me busy. I drive a 99 silver svt w/ a few mods. I just want to take this opportunity to plug Hennepin County's adoption program - I work with some of the most beautiful children who have been through the worst of circumstances and need homes and families. If you want to find out more about the adoption program email me at chul.schwanke@co.hennepin.mn.us

Joe,

I've got a SPARC 5, 70MHz, I'd let go for $75 + shipping. It has a CG6 graphics, but no memory and no hard drive, no CD nor floppy. You really don't want the 2X CD's that come with the SPARC 5's anyway. I just took a 411 Tape case and put a Plexstor UltraPlex 40X SCSI CD in that case and it loads software much faster than the 2X drives that came as options for the SPARC 5.

I can get a keyboard/mouse as they are consumable parts. Pretty much any SCA scsi hard drive would work. I ordered a 9GB SCA drive from Megahaus over a year ago for less than $350. I do have a 535MB SCA drive I'd probably throw in, basically so you could use the bracket to mount a larger drive. Can't go very far with 535MB these days.

You got my e-mail in my profile, so you know what to do.

Cheers,

TB

Brian Orlando Salazar, 22. Hailing from Haverhill, MA. I graduated in 1999 with a B.A.S. from Dartmouth College in Studio Art and Engineering. I am currently employed at a *small* internet start-up in North Andover, MA as their Lead Designer / Consultant. I love this new job...better pay than Architecture (which is where I was before this). When I'm not with my fiance, web designing, or playing with my car, I can be found drawing or painting in my studio. Getting married in October! I'm trying to buy a '72 VW Karmann-Ghia before October (for obvious reasons). ; ) If the Ghia purchase doesn't work out, I will be finishing a '69 Mustang resto. Anyone in MA wanna help?
