Dave — Systems Analyst

You must be pretty bored if you're actually reading this stuff. Well, if you're looking for something interesting here, you probably won't find it, but I'll try not to put you to sleep . There's really not much to tell personal-wise. I'm 36 years old, and I've lived in Pawtucket, Rhode Island my entire life. I have a BS in Computer Information Systems from, and I currently work as a Systems Analyst for Eastern Utilities, for whom I've worked for 14 years. I got married in 1990, and divorced in 1994. I currently have a beautiful girlfriend named Debbie (see above), and I share my apartment with 2 Ferrets named Max and Baron (also see above).

As far as flight sims go, my my first sim was Knights of the Sky, and as lame as that sim was by today's standards, that's the one that got interested in W.W.I sims. After playing KOTS for a while, I heard about another W.W.I flight sim called Red Baron, so I ran right out and picked it up, and I was immediately hooked. I played RB stand alone until Sierra announced the release of Multi-player Red Baron on the Sierra Network. This was too good to be true, so I founded the Arabian Knights with a group of friends from the Genie network to compete against other Red Baron squads on TSN, and the AKs have been a large part of my life ever since.

I honestly never expected the Arabian Knights to endure as long as we have. When I look back on how this group of people has hung together for all these years and over several gaming networks, I just shake my head in amazement. I guess this is turning into more of a rerun of the AKs history than my own personal history, but then again my own personal history in recent years is so intertwined with the Arabian Knights that it would be difficult to separate the two. That's ok though. The AKs are the finest group of people that I've ever been associated with, and I hope my personal history continues to be intertwined with that of the Arabian Knights for a long time to come.
