 * What will you be teaching this year?
 * Are you a new teacher or do you have previous experience (where and for how long)?
 * What brought you to the Academy?
 * Tell us something about yourself - hobbies, fun facts, etc.
 * What would you like to learn over the next four days? You can add to this question as the week progresses.

I'll be teaching World Geography, both Honors and On-level. I've been teaching for the past 13 years; 4 years at Diamond Hill-Jarvis HS (Ft Worth ISD), 3 years at Richland HS (Birdville ISD), 3 years at Irving HS (you know where that one is), and 3 years in Arizona. After being in several other districts, I came to realize how much I missed Irving ISD (can you believe it?). I feel like I've come home. I've been married for the past 11 years (as of this Saturday) to a former Nun from Brazil. I have a wonderful 5-year-old son, and am working on another. I work nights, weekends, holidays, & summers as a bounty hunter and Repo man. I am also a character in a graphic novel called __The Villikon Chronicles.__

Al Rosenberg (1981) (posted September 16, 2001, updated 12/01/01)
character in books 2 & 3 of "The Villikon Chronicles," the hot new sci-fi series by Young-Kinnaird Productions. The graphic novels (i.e. super comic book) is based upon an award-winning screen play, written by Bryan Kinnaird. The story was adapted to comic form (very high tech) by award winning artist Roy Young ("Spawn," "Purgatory," "Ladydeath," "Evil Ernie," the WWF Series, and many more). The big screen live action version is expected to begin filming during the summer of 2002.

Copies of Villikon Chronicles (a 9 book series) can be picked up at most comic book shops & conventions in the USA, Canada, and England. But hurry, shops sell out fast.

Over the next 4 days, I want to learn whaat this place is all about. I am particularly intrigued by the advanced use of technology, and I want to know more.
