I'm writing a book...

I've decided to begin writing a book. The basis of the book is my 20 years of computer geek experience. I intend it to be both educational and entertaining - edutainment, if you will (thank you, David Letterman).

Indeed, it will be chock full of geeky goodness, with personal anecdotes, lessons learned, and sage advice to computer-geek wannabes. It will also contain plenty of warnings to help avoid the pitfalls common to neophytes in this industry.

I've enlisted the help of a few friends who are also in the business and together we think we've seen pretty much everything there is to see in this career field. Our goal is to pass on our hard-fought knowledge to the next generation of geektocrats.

I intend to publish the progress of the book via this blog. First step, an outline! I should have a couple of rough drafts of the outline within the next couple of weeks. Once I have that, I think the book will basically write itself.

Geez, I mean, how hard can it really be??

I dig Meghan McCain

That's right, I said it! Admittedly, she's a bigger gal, but I find her very attractive - even though she's the exact opposite of my type.

And, beyond that, I enjoy hearing her views. She's a republican, sure, but she doesn't come across as a ridiculous, knee-jerk conservative. If she's the future of the republican party, the democrats are in real trouble.

So, there it is: I'm still pissed at President Obama, and I've got this weird thing for Meghan McCain. Maybe I'm a republican after all...

No, it can't be. I can still engage in intelligent conversation, all the while constructing cogent arguments. That pretty much excludes any possibility of being a republican. Whew!
