Sonja, Kinky Friedman and Art at Wolfmueller's
Bookstore in Kerrville, Texas on October 23, 2006

That's what I
like about Kinky, he never holds his punches.
I belong to the Amateur Rocketry
Society of America (ARSA)
and I am the Chapter Chier of the Amateur Rocketeer of Texas
I no longer belong the NAR or TRA.
I'm
a BAR or born again rocketeer. I was born in Fort Worth Texas
in 1951 and I've been flying model rockets off and on since I was 10
years old. I served 20 years in the U.S. Air Force (mostly
overseas) and retired in 1991. I spent another 10 years with the
Air Force in various capacities before setting down in my home state of
Texas in 2001. I started designing and manufacturing innovative
model
rocket kits in February of 2002.
