Ben James
  • My first computer was an Apple IIe running at 1.023 megahertz, my current home systems is a quad core 4.0 gigahertz machine.

  • Foosball is a huge hobby of mine. I have had three foosball tables set up in my house at once. Some foosball achievements include a gold medal in the Cornhusker State Games, a semi-pro doubles championship and a back-to-back rookie singles championship.

  • I have always enjoyed sports cars and have owned a Camaro, a Corvette and a Mustang at different points.

  • I really enjoy energy drinks and for odd reason I have an energy drink can collection with more than 100 different cans.

  • Barbecues go real well with Husker football, as long as I am the grill master!
