Alert me when new Jay Greenstein titles are added

Bio: First, and before anything else, I am a storyteller. My skills at writing are subject to opinion, my punctuation has been called interesting, at best--but I am a storyteller.

I am, of course, many other things. In seventy-two years of living, there are great numbers of things that have attracted my attention. I am, for example, an electrician. Not quite as good as my father, who taught me the skills, but still, I can usually please those whose homes I have improved.

I am an engineer, one who has designed computers and computer systems; one of which--during the bad old days of the cold war--flew in the plane designated as our President's Airborne Command Post? The Doomsday Jet.

I've spent seven years as the chief engineer of a company that built bar-code readers.

I spent thirteen of the most enjoyable years of my life as a scoutmaster, and three, nearly as good, as a cubmaster.

I joined the Air Force to learn jet engine mechanics, but ended up working in broadcast and closed circuit television, serving in such unlikely locations as the War Room of the Strategic Air Command, and a television station on the island of Okinawa.

I have been involved in sports car racing, scuba diving, sailing, and anything else that sounded like fun. I can fix most things that break, sew a fairly neat seam, and have raised three pretty nice kids.
