Welcome to Capt Rosha's CyberWorld!! There are continents to be explored. Some are known and well established while some are brand new and still being discovered. So come on in and start taking a look around my CyberWorld. Capt Rosha is the "online" name I adopted several years ago and has kind of stuck with me. The "Capt" portion was a reflection of my rank (at the time)  in the US Air Force. I know, I know...I am really a Major ... Well, I think I will always be "Capt"...since that's how numerous 'net friends refer to me anyway. 

Time for an update huh!
Aug 29, 2009
As I said about a year ago, the best way to keep up to date with my happenings is through Facebook.  Also, I signed up for an account on Flikr to host my pictures since it is so much cheaper than posting them on here and running out of space.  http://www.flikr.com/captrosha I got my first DSLR camera when we moved to Hawaii and I have been having some fun taking pictures.

Update -- 26 Oct 08
Well, I have been pretty lax in updating this site!  Darn Social Network sites!!  I have been keeping my Facebook site updated a lot instead of this one.  So, if you know me, look me up on Facebook ... that is where you will see the latest and greatest.

Since the last update in Jan., I have moved to Hawaii and stopped playing World of Warcraft and City of Villains.  I just don't have the time to play those types of games anymore.

We purchased a pureblood Miniature Schnauzer over the weekend.  Her name is Zoey and she was born on Aug 16th, 2007.

 

Ok, I have been slacking with keeping this site updated!  Here is a link to my research paper on Virtual Economies for my Master's Program. 

And some photo's from the Tunderbird's in 2006 airshow

 

Well, since I used to live in South Dakota, I figure a few pictures of Mt. Rushmore are in order!

Japan!

I went on a 5-day Ski trip to Sapporo, Japan during the annual Snow Festival in 2001.  Here are some of the pictures from my trip.  These are HUGE Snow sculptures that the Japanese Self-Defense Forces create.  They haul in truckloads of the purest,  whitest snow to make these things.  They do this as a training exercise.  

These pictures are of my evening at the Sapporo Beer Garden.  Sapporo is also a Japanese Beer maker.  It is a big "Meat and Beer" evening.  All you can eat mutton and all you can drink beer.  You cook your own mutton on the table in front of you.  It was a fun night.  There were some Japanese folks nearby that had to get in to a drinking contest with all the Americans.  A chug contest to see who could drink a beer the fastest.  Later on, we even got the entire floor to join the silly Americans in doing "The Wave".  It was a great and fun evening!

This picture was taken during my tour of the Ainu Village.   The Ainu people were the first to inhabit the northern island of Japan.  

As you may know, I was previously stationed in Japan (99-01).  I had the opportunity to participate in a Mochitsuki Festival.   Basically, you take cooked rice, add a bit of water, and take a very large wooden mallet and pound it to a very thick pulp.  Here are some pictures.

 Below are some pics from a trip to Tokyo in 1999.  My brother and I went to the Tokyo Fish market then off to Asakusa Temple.  Man, I never realized how BIG Tuna actually are hehe.
