Building networks for mid market ISPs.

I spend too much time worried about surveillance capitalism coming to eat us all.

I’m an avid reader, occasional gamer, dad.

I’m not too happy with the world my parents’ generation built for my kids.

I’m exhausted and really want to go to bed, but the kitten has taken a break from running constantly to purr in my lap.

I guess I’m stuck here until he gets bored.

Chilly morning walkies with this little fella.

October means the local Oktoberfest brew is on tap at the pizza place.
A mostly full glass of amber-colored beer is on a metal patio table alongside a red cup and other dining items.

Vacation Photo Dump #1

I wish I did a better job of taking photos when we’re out and about, but I keep getting distracted by all the fun I’m having!
My brother in law holds up a fish while my oldest son wearing a life jacket smiles on a boat. Two women are standing in front of a bakery display case filled with pastries. A hand is holding a cannoli filled with cream and topped with chocolate chips, dusted with powdered sugar, resting on a paper liner.

For years I thought Wham!’s Last Christmas was just a corny demo track on a keyboard I had as a preteen.
