Mushrom (Or "Mushroom" as he is more normally known) is a 42 year old Computer Engineer. Born in Los Angeles, he currently lives in Alabama.

A lifelong Computer, History, Science, and Reading nut, he averages 2-5 books a week, and 10-20 magazines a month. He hardly ever watches Television, with the exception of The History Channel.

A modern "Renisance Man", he has had many careers in his lifetime. They vary from a 10 year stint in the US Marine Corps, to car salesman, computer technician, technical writer, Military Surplus sales, pawnbroker, actor, DJ, network engineer, and even Amusement Park Ride Operator.

At the age of 42, I decided to re-enter the military, and enlisted in the US Army. Currently I am stationed at Fort Bliss, undergoing training as a crewmember for the PATRIOT missile defense system.

Articles I have done Major rework on

Goldwing: Added historical information on all models, from 1974 to today. Rescue From Gilligan's Island: There was almost no information at all. I completely rewrote it, making a much more complete article.

Articles I created from Scratch

Flying Enterprise: sinking of US freighter in 1952. Roadog: Worlds largest and most unique motorcycle. Fatenah: First 3D Animated movie made in Palestine.
