What's New

2022

12/2019

Technically I added a NEW menu for new photos. they can also be seen in the "general population".

I haven't written fiction in literally years. Most of my day is absorbed by my job. Any free time goes to study, the gym or my mamy many projects.

7/2015

Plenty new in my life. I hate ordered lists but writing a monologue about recent experences and goals reads like a bad story

  • This is software summer. I'm on the computer for everything. Writing code, debugging freeware, improving my networking (TCP/IP) skills.

  • I am still looking for meaningful full-time permanent work in the IT industry.

  • I am rapidly approaching the end of my latest short-story - "Let There Be!". Here is the tagline:

    “'Let there be light', right?”


    “Yes. The start of everything. Except God, of course. He was there”


    “Or the voice. That had to be first, before the light.”

    I spent most of my thirty-five years thinking about that – that first sound. Get beyond the notion of God. Accept that the people that wrote that didn't know that sound needs a medium, a material to travel through. And who heard?

    I thought maybe it was all a metaphor for getting things going in the universe. Turn on the lights, see where we are. Maybe 'the light' was really 'the good' – all that is proper and balanced in the world. That had to be started first, right? But I then realized all that analysis doesn't matter. Who cares what 'the light' is? What matters, what matters to me is, why did anything have to be said at all?

    I'm listening to Draper Doo as I compile code. The tedious drone and unchanging backbeat keeps me focused as I build anonymous hashes.
