Mushrom (Or "Mushroom" as he is more normally known) is a 41 year old Computer Engineer. Born in Los Angeles, he currently lives in Alabama.

A lifelong Computer, History, Science, and Reading nut, he averages 2-5 books a week, and 10-20 magazines a month. He hardly ever watches Television, with the exception of The History Channel.

A modern "Renisance Man", he has had many careers in his lifetime. They vary from a 10 year stint in the US Marine Corps, to car salesman, computer technician, technical writer, Military Surplus sales, pawnbroker, actor, DJ, network engineer, and even Amusement Park Ride Operator.
