Greetings to All From Southern California!

Hello, and greetings to all from Southern California aka (SoCal). I'd first like to say that I'm not very hip to forums in general let alone this one. However I have taken some time to read up on how to go about respectfully introducing myself. Honestly I'm kinda nervous and I hope I'm doing this right. This feels like a first date with a long time crush lol. I am absolutely, and completely fascinated by lasers. I have been since the day I first laid hands on a $0.99 keychain laser when I was about 13. I'm now 33 and I was recently reintroduced when I randomly bought a few cheap "303s/301s" off ebay along with a generic chinese 1W 445nm laser from ebay as well. There's a few more on the way. I am from Jacksonville, FL. I Moved to Hollywood, CA in 08'. I Lived and worked there as a chef for about 6 years up until I was paralyzed (T-!!) from about the waist down due to a car accident. Lots of good has come as result of my accident. I finally have time for myself and I have discovered many of new passions! I'm an aspiring videographer/documentarian, and mentor. I'm excited to be apart of y'alls forum. I have a very open mind and I'm very respectful. If I do something wrong it was an honest mistake. Please let me know so I can fix it and learn from it so I don't repeat it.

Now let's talk about LASERS!!! I am ready to learn and I am 100% ready to commit to this hobby! I'm looking forward to meeting you all!
Cheers
