Jeff's Musings
Welcome To My Page!If I had my way, I would spend all my time with family and church activities, but like most of us, I have to work. Since 2001, I've worked at Union Bank. It's the third-largest bank in California, and so far, a great place to work. Currently I'm an IT Enterprise Architect, which is what they do to developers after they begin to go senile, I think.
Obligatory Hobby Section
Lots of things interest me, and as a consequence I have (or have had) way too many hobbies. But over the years, one thing has remained consistent: an interest in nature and science, and a love for popular articles, books and documentaries that discuss them.
My TV viewing is pretty much limited to indulging those interests. Coupled with a (I'm sure irrational) hatred of commercials, nearly all my TV time is spent on PBS stations. My two favorite TV shows are Nature and Nova, but I'm pretty much a sucker for any PBS documentary that touches on a topic of interest. Over the years I've recorded nearly 1,000 of these shows (yes, it is a sickness). And naturally since I'm a computer geek, I've put them in a database. If you're curious about what's in my library, you can use the following form to search it.
And one of my favorite things to do while watching one of the shows I've recorded is enjoy a good cigar (outside on the patio, of course). While not nearly as extensive as my catalog of documentaries, I have recorded a few notes about the many different cigars I've tried. If you're curious about that, then here's a form you can use to take a look at what I've been smoking.
