Today's Featured Biography

 

Wayne Berkas

From RHS Deckernet site:
Berkas, Wayne
Date Submitted: Fri, 9 Jul 2004
Personal Email Address: [email protected]

Where Am I Living Now?: Clancy, Montana
Other: After graduating from Richfield in 72, I went to the University of Minnesota and then to the University of Arizona. Graduating with a MS in Hydrology, I was hired by the U.S. Geological Survey at Rolla, Missouri. There I met a girl and told her I was an heir to the Norwegian crown. She bought the line and married me. She is starting to suspect I lied because I have no desire to visit Norway.

After 10 years in Missouri I finally succeeded in upsetting all my supervisors and was transferred to Bismarck, North Dakota (also known as South Saskatchewan). After 15 years in North Dakota, all the people I upset either retired or died, thus I was able to move to Helena, Montana. Working for the Federal government, I did not have much money, but I was able to get a great deal on a cabin in the mountains, previously owned by Ted Kazinski (just kidding, Ted Turner, just kidding).

I have a son. When he was a baby, bouncing on my knee, I imagined him as the President of the United States. As he grew through his teens, my expectations changed to hoping that he would not be a burden to society. He joined the Navy because he hated camping and he wanted to get out of North Dakota. My wife tells everyone that he is floating around in the Pacific on an aircraft carrier with our future in his hands. Be afraid, be very afraid.

Seriously, I was hoping to leave my email address so the people I hung around with and have not seen after 1976 would drop me a line to prove they are still alive. We’ll meet in Fort Peck.
