Mainframe, MVS and zOS Discussion

Konnichiwa. My name is Akatsukami. OK, my name is not Akatsukami, but that's been my online identity for twenty years.

I have one of the highest GPAs of anyone who's ever flunked out of the University of Connecticut (a review of the course catalog showed that drinking, gambling, and -- ahem! -- wenching weren't degree programs after all). I nonetheless got a job with a company desperate for a PL/I programmer who'd relocate to western New York state. Early in my career I tended to get the "purple squirrel" assignments, but I've settled down to Rexx, DB, JCL, TSO/ISPF, and PL/I.

I'm getting old, and I'm fairly handicapped; I need a walker to get around. I still turn out a mean sautéed chicken breast, though.

Konnichiwa and welcome to the Forum. It's nice to see you here.

That makes two of us. And well GPAs - something I'd avoid talking in public!

I'm rather fond of chicken-legs, so consider yourself safe!
