About this site's host...

Who is GoingInCirclez? You sure you wanna know?

I'm just a man: A son, brother, husband, in-law, father, coworker, friend.

I've been called a: trooper, survivor, cranky bastard, funny goofball, genius, idiot, asshole, angel, master of all, jack of nothing, any and all and none of the above.

I'm a tinkerer, artist, historian, author, mechanic, technician, driver, leader, follower, the outspoken quiet one in the back who does whatever the job requires, but none of it by trade.

Really I'm just bored at the moment and trying to flesh this page out so I can cross it off the list and make the site active. Wait, did I just type that out loud?

OK enough already. My name is Tony Lucio, I'm a 31-year old lost soul who grew up loving the southwest side of Chicago but then moved to Kentucky at 22 to try a different poke at things - and has been stuck here ever since. The Paradox State, I call it, as it applies to mind and geography. I studied Mechanical Engineering in a prestigious university until I realized I hated Calculus (or was it the ADHD?) and decided to use my IT skills to pay the bills. I became a dad in 2004 and am still amazed and overwhelmed by that racket. I've been building models off-and-on since I was 6, turning it into a primary hobby around 2003 or so. I'm equally at home in a junkyard as in any palatial estate.

This site for now is an outlet for me to share my works and my opinions on my terms. Being simultaneously new to and lazy at this, I'm not sure where it will go from here. For starters, let's say it's simply to aggregate many things I've contributed to the internet model railroad community into one relevant archival source. Eventually I'll get my other photos, and personal contacts and professional works and things here too.

So take a look around and drop me a line if you see fit. Or not. I'll still be going in circlesz either way!
