Gregory Greenway

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Gregory Greenway (born a long time ago) is just a regular guy from Milwaukee, Wisconsin. After spending his youth chasing a few beverages and a lot of women, he now spends his time more creatively by doing less-exciting things, such as his own laundry.

As a young man, he was quite athletic and spent numerous years playing baseball, softball, and semi-pro football. This means nothing now.

He also spent some time playing guitar in a small local band. Today, with good looks and some of his hair far behind him, he peeks into the mirror and laughs at life's grand cruelty.

Occupation

One must mature. As such, Greg taught himself to program computer software during the 1980s and has spent over 20 years in that industry, including 8 years working as the Systems Administrator for a home health agency owned by his ex-girlfriend, affectionately known today as Satan. (Maybe she wasn't quite that evil, but it still makes for a funny nickname)

A car accident in 2004, a gift from a young idiot who could not remove a cell phone from her ear at a stoplight, gave Greg a bad back and forced him to sit less hours at a PC. He began his second sturggling company, adding the title of Mortgage Broker to his resume. Today, he is happy just to be able to pay his bills in one of the highest-taxed states in the USA.

In 2010, Greg was diagnosed with cancer. That sucks, big-time.

Interests

Computers, the Milwaukee Brewers, NFL football, guitars, songwriting, dabbling in short stories, politics, and examining the pea-sized brains and activities of human beings.

Computers

He uses VB to create affordable software programs and utilities for small businesses, can setup and maintain networks, design web sites (Such as this quick little piece of shit) and pretty much does anything else that is computer-related and catches his interest.

Baseball

He kicked ass at a Milwaukee Brewers tryout at age 19, only to be rebuffed by his small size and the fact that nobody knew who the hell he was. From there he played a few more years of baseball and almost nonstop softball. Desired by many local teams, he consistently wore his favorite number 17 jerseys. He also coached successfully for many years, beginning when he was only 13 years old. He has now retired from all active sports, except for sex with any woman dumb enough to do it with him.

Football

Playing numerous positions for a team called the Assassins, and earning nothing more than beer money, he played very well until he decided that #17 was sick of seeing his toes sticking out of his cleats and pushing them back into place. Work had become more important than fun, causing him to chant the mantra "Fuck my life" over and over.

Music

He has played guitar since age 17 and written songs as far back as age 13. Although only a hobby, it remains fun and he prefers to write rather than perform.

Author

Originally asked to write for an RP Guild in the game Everquest, he decided that he liked it enough to continue. Currently working on a weird novel that he will never find time to finish and the hilarious comedy-western series Broker Outhouse.

Politics

He is a Centrist who leans to the Conservative side and refuses to vote for any Democrat, but does not adhere to any current party-line. He makes up his own mind on every issue and cannot stand the idea of being "politically-correct" to appease irrelevant leftover Yuppie liberals.

Religion

A Christian who abhors organized religion. Don't ask, because you wouldn't understand.

Personal Life

Single, with no children. A good guy who is great with kids, he just hasn't found any woman dumb enough to put up with him for more than 8 years.

He has a great sarcastic sense of humor, much like Dennis Miller or George Carlin.

Rarely drinks and does not use recreational drugs.

Nicknames

'Assassin', 'Iceman', 'That guy over there'

For many years, he was known as 'Assassin-17' from his football days, only to discover that when he used that name on the internet it scared a lot of people away. Since then, he shortens it to 'A-17', although many people may still remember his website under the old name for it's free NFL Picks and jokes.
