My Life- An Introduction...

Post by theSLEEPER »

Somehow, I seemed to have stepped into here at a bad time... I don't really know why or how, I'm on TONS of other forums, and have never had much of an issue...

So maybe explaining myself will help...

My name is Jeret Howard. If anyone would like to add me on Facebook, I'm pretty much the only Jeret Howard.

Here's a picture of mmy wife and I, I'm the one wearing my "Stunna Shades" I won at Chuck-E-Cheese during my niece's bday. :D
Image

I drive a 95 Beretta base. It's my DD now to keep the cost down for my small family.

Image

I have a fun weekend truck/DD as well...

Image

Image
I sponsor multiple forums under the DI Performance name, Competition Diesel, PowerStrokeNation, and PowerStrokeArmy to name a few.

I'm also a moderator for Diesel Power Magazine's forum.

In 2005, I deployed to Iraq for OIF III as a Combat Medic for an infantry platoon.

I enjoy drag racing, shooting, and pretty much anything that involves having fun...

Right now, I'm putting my wife through nursing school,

Image

so although I work for NASA, I don't have a ton of disposable income...

At NASA's Stennis Space Center, we WERE testing the main engines for the Space Shuttle. SSME for short.

My title is Engineering Technician, so basically, I do whatever the engineers put on the paper. :D

So that we can do this...

Image

I was laid off for 6 months when the space shuttle program shut down, and my wife remained in school, so needless to say, we're still catching up...

Therefore, if you see me trying to find the cheap way out, please forgive me. I know doing it right is the best bet, but sometimes that isn't an option.

I'm just a glorified mechanic. I do pretty much everything. From running fuel lines for the engines, to working on the V12 and V16 diesel engines at the water and generator facility.

Thank you sir! I miss driving my truck on a daily basis, but my Beretta is cool enough for me. :D

And it was my honor to serve. I miss it every day.

Took a pretty picture of the Focus. Working on the sound system in it right now. Going to give 3 8's a try. I'm not looking for extreme bass, just really great crisp sound quality and range.

Edit: Didn't realize how blurry they were...

Thank you sir! I love that picture as well. I had just spent a few hours polishing and waxing it and the wife asked if she could take it to the mall. As she was pulling out I stopped her and told her to let me take some pics while it was clean.. After I got a few, she was pulling out and I told her to make it smoke a little. She proceeded to burn em down! Haha!
