**Members Profiles**- Post a little about yourself (now with complete list)

[nosebleed_section]

Okay - 5th generation Californian (Pasadena). Lived there the first year of my life and never since. My dad was CIA, so every two years we moved 10,000 miles. We alternated between Europe & the US. At five I spoke perfect Bavarian Deutsch (since forgotten *dang!*) Back to Maryland, then Greece.....back to Virgina. Dad left the agency and we moved to NYC, were I went to the UN School on E 23rd for High School and became a Giant Fan in the early 70's.

Currently live in Charlotte were I am a partner in a product development company, Enventys. We also produce a TV called Everyday Edisons which runs on PBS. I appear on the show regularly, which is about what it takes for ideas to become products. We also run a site called Edison Nation which links inventors to retailers with us as the only intermediary. If you have ideas for inventions, check it out.

Love to travel - the last trip was a 4-wheeling circuit around Iceland in July. If anyone is interested in Antartica - here is the link to my photo journal of that trip.

Bleeder, welcome aboard. Glad u joined the migration. Plenty happenin' on this site.

[nosebleed_section]

Thanks Jaime - nice to hear from you. Been kinda overwhelmed lately - business has picked up a lot for us. How are you doing?

[jimv]

Hi nose!!! Great to have you here!  Sorry that I didn't have a post count on you.  So, you'll have tom work your way up from "Rookie."  But to us Tailgaters, you'll be a HofFer.

[Jaime]

Bleeder, I'm sluggin' it out it the trenches. Finally got some movement on a bit of biz we need to happen.
But I'm largely all good. Stoked with the games happenin'. Great gettin' together with the ol' posse, yellin' @ the TV & all that. Good to hear from u as well.

Bleeder

If it is alright to call you that. Nice resume. any chance your PBS show is seen in the NY area??
I love your comment about becoming a Giants fan in the 70's. boy, you must be a glutton for punishment. In the 70's, most other NY teams were doing pretty good, excpet our giants. You must really take in the old saying, rooting for the underdog.
anyway, glad to have you here.  A hearty welcome to the BBH.

Dang - back to being a rook (I was at about 475- can we do that?) Thanks for the kind words though.

Jaime, hang in there dude..

Lenn, by all means bleeder or nose is fine and thanks for the welcome. I still don't know why I became a Giants fan. I'm the only one in my family. My dad is the most shameless front runner you ever met. About the show, "check your local listings" as they say. It has been on the air in the NYC area in the past and will be available on Hulu soon.

Edison Nation is pretty cool. Retails run what are called "sponsored searches" where they define categories in which they are looking for innovation. As a member you can submit ideas specifically to fill the posted need. As far as we know, it is the only Website of it's type in the world.

[One Word Giants]

I Live in New Rochelle, N.Y close to the Bronx, close to Yankee Stadium.  The lst pro game I saw was the New York Yankees vs. the Chicago Bears in the early 50's.   When the Yanks moved to Balt., the Giants moved in and I was hooked.   I'm a die-hard Giants Fan, been through all the aggravation with stupid draft choices, especially Rocky Thompson.  I'm 66 years old now, and thank God for the Giants success over the past several years.   The trips to Conn. to watch the Giants on TV during the early 60's was great and alot of fun.  The Packers were tough then.  However, the Win over the Pats, was the best ever championship.

I'm now retired from Commercial Photography, but still do DJ work occasionally. My name is Lou and remember anything that ever happens to the Giants, good or bad,  can be described in One Word....Giants!
