Nick: Cybersis

Birthplace: Bay Minette, AL

Residence: Falls Church, VA (5 miles from Washington, DC) by way of New Jersey and Georgia.

Status: Single

Children: None

Education: 4 Yrs College

Occupation: Store Manager in Washington, DC .. Specializing in high-end outdoor furnishings and art glass entryways, windows and doors. Even after 14 years in retail and with the same store .. my real experience and expertise is in the food service industry where I was purchasing director for 10 years.

Hobbies: Ok, let me see … I love to play games of any kind .. especially love playing cards either LIVE or on-line. I enjoy watching movies (especially tear-jerkers), reading (Dean Koontz is my fav), cooking, and people!

Pet Peeves: Laziness, dishonesty, people who complain but offer no positive solutions.

For the past 13 years, I have been active in my condominium's association and community, starting out as a member of the Social Committee. Since then, I organized and started our Neighborhood Watch program, started Kid's Forum, chaired the Community Forum, and am now a Board Member, serving as treasurer.

Over the past 5 years I have met so many of my spades partners and friends. Several I've known for 4 or more years! My first partner, Macbeth, I will finally get to meet for the first time in Michigan at Hulk's Live Tourney!! About time, Mac!!! *S* Last January, my 2nd partner came to "surprise" me at our Live Tourney .. Atrocious - I finally got to give him that HUGE HUG I've been giving him on-line for years! And then there's bro … well what can I say? I think he's still cussing me for dragging him into playing pards 4 years ago!! But, hey .. he's the one who dragged me into playing at Rankmonster! He and I finally got to meet in St Louis at a live tourney there a year ago. And to think I actually wondered if he'd be the same as on-line … Mr. Boogeralerter and all! *LMAO*

Many of the rest of you have become very close friends to me .. I'm not going to start naming folks … I know I'll leave someone out .. and I don't want to do that!!!

Special thanks to my dear friends, Spanks and Silks! Y'all put the 'rank' in Rankmonster! Thank You!!!
