Who is this Pete guy anyway?
What's he all about?
Can I grow up to be just like him?


Where I Work:

I am a Technical Support Engineer for a Data Communications company based in Milwaukie, Oregon. I work in a branch office located in Redmond, Washington. We design, install and maintain wide-area networks. (kinda like the Internet, huh?) We specialize in voice/data integration hardware. If you want to talk shop, drop me a line.


Friends:

Mark Hopkins Former roomie and all around swell guy.

Michele Hopkins Swell guy's swell wife.

(I really do have more than two friends, but these are the only ones that have homepages!)

Eve Andersson I don't know Eve personally, she's a friend of a friend. But her pages are so cool, they're worth checking out. (Eve, you're one strange person!)


Addictions:

4 Wheelin':

I love to go 4 wheelin' and exploring the Washington wilderness. After nearly destroying my truck and racking up $450 in towing bills for pulling me out of mud holes, (of which $200 is for pulling out other people's trucks who were nice enough to try and help but dumb enough to get stuck like me) and over $7000 in body damage after I tried to stuff my BIG full-size pickup down a little Jeep trail (thank God for insurance!) I finally went out and got a Jeep. Now I can go places my truck could only dream of, not to mention going topless. Here are some 4-wheeling related sites:

DISCLAIMER: No trees or their spotted-owl nests were harmed during the operation of my truck.


Fishing:

Fishing is one of my favorite pastimes. As the saying goes, a bad day fishing is better than a good day at work. Washington has some great fishing. Everything from rivers, to lakes, to the Puget Sound. Here's some fishing related sites:

Motorcycles:

I used to roadrace motorcycles. I've been out of it for a few years, but I still miss it. Now I just spectate, and remember the glory days. Here's some motorcycle and racing related sites:

Star Trek:

I'm a die hard Trekker: I've seen every episode of the original series, (numerous times) all of the movies, (some several times) all of "The Next Generation", (most episodes at least two to three times) and I watch "Deep Space 9" and "Voyager" religiously. I was even considered for a consulting job during the filming of the movie "Generations". (and if you believe THAT...) So here's some cool Star Trek pages:

Star Trek Resources

MSN's Star Trek page

Star Trek: TNG Quotes

The Capt. James T. Kirk Sing-a-long Page

A nifty poem by everybody's favorite android, Data.

Of course Star Trek isn't the only show I sit and watch while my brain turns to mush, there are more:
