The few times my brothers and I weren't fighting, we had our picture taken.

197? - My youngest brother Keith (in the middle) is sitting in the chair, and my other brother Tommy
(on the right), who looks like he's about to do something mischievous, is sitting next to him. I'm
the one on the left with the frightened look on my face.

In the spring of 1998, I participated in the NASA Reduced-Gravity Student Flight Opportunity Program at the NASA/Johnson Space Center in Houston, Texas. A specially modified KC-135A turbojet transport airplane flew parabolic arcs to produce weightless periods of 20-25 seconds. We flew 40 mirco-g parabolas plus one Lunar-g and one Martian-g parabola each day and I am proud to report that I did not get sick. The purpose of our two days of flights was to test a new type of wrench we are developing for astronauts to use during spacewalks.
My attempt at juggling in micro-g.

I treated my parents to a baseball game at Jacobs Field in Cleveland over the Memorial Day holiday in 1998. Unfortunately, the Tribe lost to the Toronto Blue Jays.

My parents visited my brother in Cincinnati. Ohio in May of 2000 and took time to pose with the
Cincinnati Bengals' mascot.

Later that month, my parents came to see me and attend my Master of Science graduation ceremony.
