Who is this "Joel Owens" guy, anyway?

I'm from Texas, have lived here all my life.

Sorry, don't own an oil well.

Not a fan of Country or Western music.

and I don't hunt, not much of a fisherman either.

Which makes me the weirdest Texan ever.

I'm an Electrical Design Engineer in Flight Simulation.

My favorite people in the world call me "Sweetheart" and "Dad"!

Am fascinated by Japanese language and culture.

Equally fascinated by Korean language and mostly their culture.

My work and my hobbies usually involve electronics. Zap!

I and my kids enjoy model building - Never grew out of it.

I am a member of the Merkel Church of Christ.

Enjoy playing Roland SPD-11 Digital Drums and my Peavey Fury electric bass.

Have played drums since I was about age 7, maybe younger.

Enjoy old science fiction books, radio shows and movies.

Networks where you can find me:
