“But a person’s gotta have something

To keep him from going insane”

I have been online since the summer of 93.

Out of this 15 something years I have primarily made my living off the internet.

4 years at an internet based retailer managing the website, almost 4 years at a consulting company building corporate (mainly commerce) sites, and the last 9 months working on web based medical software.

In this time I wasted a college education my parents were paying for and several years later worked my butt off to get a college education I paid for (OK there was some loans and credit cards involved).

In all this time I have never really overtly participated in any part of the internet.

Sure I have built or been part of building 20 plus sites that surely have been seen by fair amount of people (OK nothing super popular but still…), wasted a TON of time playing online games, but I have never blogged, added a comment, digged anything, participated in a community or done anything personal.

So this morning I do this.

Why?

Well two weeks ago I got a lot of free time. 

Company I worked for went BOOOOOOOM.

Gone baby gone.

Not so much fun.

3 week pay owed and a job I really enjoyed gone.

So anyway I figured I would set up WordPress on this domain I have had for a couple of years and start a bold and exciting journey.

…OK I have no idea what that last thing means.
