Hi, I'm from "the Island". It's quite lovely here. No hassles. Sometimes, you know, we have problems, but it's like... whatever. I keep an Inn that is just one block from the beach. Honey, you should take a break and come see me. I find you nice place to relax. It's very nice. I clean the beds regularly. I bring you good breakfast. You will like it.

Have you ever felt like taking some time off to see the sites of the city. It's best to get somewhere that provides the best view, far above the hustle and bustle of the traffic. Get some fresh air and see everything in a new light. Kick off your shoes, unbutton your tie and just let the night air fill your mind with wonder.

The Road Less Traveled

My career has been checkered, to say the least. I've done graphic design, teaching, documentation, testing, localization, help desk, webmastering, and web development. The reason isn't because I'm this great rennaisance man. I'm just willing to learn. Maybe it's a lack of fear. At any rate, it's an interesting ride. On the downside, I've become a jack of all trades, master of none. It's finally come to a head where I've found more teaching opportunities to leverage what I've learned. On the other hand, I'm finding that at my age I'm starting to be more selective about what I can learn at this stage of my life. It's not an ideal model for everybody, but I've done alright.
