zSerity: Hello and welcome to the special Christmas edition #322 of the Hack Forums news! Before we start, are there any shout outs you'd like to make or is there anything you'd like to say?
Nuworld: I would like to give a shout out to Knautschtabak aka Zey. Thanks for all the help and teaching prifide on WHF.

zSerity: Tis the season to be jolly. What are your plans for the holidays?
Nuworld: Thank you for asking, many may not know of me and who I am. Many see my avatar as Chinese though I'm American but my family is Chinese. For the holidays we will do a normal Christmas as most do here in the states, we have the tree and give gifts.

zSerity: That's awesome. So did you grow up most of your life in American or China?
Nuworld: I was born in riverside California in 1963. In 1965 my family moved to Scottsdale Arizona where I was raised and spent my years growing up. I found my way to china after meeting my wife. She was there as a student at college.

zSerity: Will you be celebrating both the Chinese and American New Years?
Nuworld: Yes, in my family we celebrate new years at different times as most know in America new years is on the first of January, in china it's different each year.

zSerity Chinese New Years parties look way more fun than traditional American ones. Which do you prefer?
Nuworld: China new years is the way to go by far, there is no comparison to America and Chinese new years, In the states it's only one night/day. In china it's a full week of fireworks and parties, it's a 24/7 party.

zSerity: And I bet the food is off the charts?
Nuworld: Yes, the food is great, my wife is from Chongqing, China. The food there is very spicy and hot! Though I eat Chinese food everyday, I do miss my steak and potatoes at times.

zSerity: Ah yeah you mentioned that to me before. You said it was like heaven there, are you planning on moving there in the future permanently?
Nuworld: Yes we own a house in Chongqing and we visit each year. When we retire we will be moving to china for good. But we will also keep the house we own here in Ohio as a backup home.

zSerity: Do you want to tell the community what you do for a living? I think it's pretty incredible.
Nuworld: I'm a Retired Lt. Colonel pilot in the U.S. Air force. Though I'm still in the reserves and could be called back to active duty anytime. I fought in the Gulf war both in desert storm and Iraqi Freedom. I was shot down twice and lived to make this post. I am only a small hand full of people that own there own F-16 plane in the U.S.

zSerity: That's crazy! I bet there were plenty of times when you couldn't be home for Christmas so I'm sure you cherish the ones when you are. Before we wrap up the interview, what are you hoping Santa brings you this year? Are you planning on treating yourself to anything?
Nuworld: This is a very good question you ask. I ask this question every year to myself. I guess the best answer to this question is that I'm still alive after the war and all the death that I witnessed? I'm just happy I'm still here with my family, that is all I need. Happy holidays everyone.
