2005

After a haitus to the mountains of Montana entry back into the digital world occurred with employment at 50 Below Sales and Marketing.

The mountains remain my home and the cellular reception grows wider allowing for connectivity deeper into the woods and to the top of the higher peaks. A blessing? A curse? Only time will tell.

Present

After all these years a powerful Apple desktop ThinkpPad laptop is on my home desk but the unavoidable draw of the pocket computer and the ever-present entanglement of Google and Android keep me ever-connected.
