ME!!!
Thomas Hansen
If you don't know who I am then you are either very distntly related or you are on the wrong page!
In any case you are welcome.
For those who do not know I am Tom son of Worf, son of Mogh, son of Worf, of the House of Martok by way of a time loop. And here is my family crest.
For those who are curious here is a picture of me before the surgeons got started.
Anyway, I am not a spy, I just have weird parentage.
Currently I am still looking for a job in a library in Oregon. Of course there are 75+ experienced (and over educated) applicants for every job so this could take a while.
Please contact me if you hear of a possibility.
Events
The only event worth talking about here is the Thanksgiving get together.
Usually our get togethers are enjoyable and only a little noisy. But this year the dinner started looking like this.
Which turned into this (this is not all that unusual actually).
But cousin may our only vegetarian was treated like this. (Culprit was caught on film. Yes real film so it can be framed!)
But this was also part of the mess to be cleaned up. Sigh a new generation is not quite grown up. And we never did this when I was growing up. We did things that we didn't get caught doing.
Travel
2015 was not a good year for me to travel between finishing off the degree and the beginning of the job hunt it wasn't until the bad weather had moved in before I wass ready to go somewhere.
So I thought i would ask foor suggestions as to where to go (Keep it polite!!!). and share the beginnings of a check list for a camping trip.
Please note: I have decided that I want to experiment with hammock and tarp camping without a tent.
Any suggestions or warnings from experienced hammockers?

Other
In other news, I finally did it!
I bought a drone and have started to take videos! More on this later, for now here is my latest footage.
You need have a desktop or small laptop to watch the video playing now.
R.I.P.
This is where I acknowledge people and things that interested me or were important to me that died this year
Since my family managed to eke out another year I will list the three actors that most affeccted me that died in 2015.
First is Anne Meara half of a very funny duo, Meara and (Jerry)Stiller, who were in their heyday in the sixties.
Second is Wayne Rogers whose main claim to fame is playing Trapper John on M*A*S*H.
Third is Martin Milner who I remember from Adam-12.
