Hello everyone!

Jeff Julian Was kind enough to set me up with a new blog, thanks Jeff.

Anyway, for those of you who don't know me, which is probaly most of you, here is a quick and dirty bio of myself...

I'm Living in Lawrence, Kansas.  I am a contract .NET developer currently working on contract at FHL Bank in Topeka.

I am an (MCP, MCSD, MCAD.NET, MCSD.NET) in both C# and VB.NET languages.  I prefer writing code in the C# language, maybe just because its new, and feels different than VB.NET, although it seems most the places I work are VB.NET shops.  I've been writing code since the Basic/Pascal days circa 1987 or so.  I used to use Lotus 123 and dBase quite a bit until coporate pressure, ie Microsoft's takeover of the software world made me convert.  I've written software in Pascal, Basic, dBase, Foxpro, VB3-6, VB.NET and C#.  I'm fairly well versed on SQL Server haveing used it since the 6.5 release.

When I'm not writing code, I like to play tennis, golf, fish, play Americas Army, drink beer with friends on weekends, and hang out with my kids.

So, glad to be here everybody, hope I can share some knowledge and help somebody learn something.

By the way, I'm writing this blog with a new beta program from Interscape Technologies called Visual Blogger 2004, pretty cool app, still beta though :)
