First, some basics

To get things kicked off, I'm in my prime (at least I hope so) and I'm married with two kids, a girl and a boy. At first glance I may sound like Al Bundy, but I don't have a dog and I don't sell women's shoes for a living.
Instead, I write software for a living. I worked in the field for over ten years and then decided that it was time to form my own company. The name of my company is Natural Selection LLC and the URL for the site is www.nslimited.com
More on that to come later, but now on to other information.

I'm not much of a sports fan, but I do enjoy hockey and follow those standings and watch games from time to time.

I am a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (www.lds.org), but contrary to what some people seem to believe, I only have one wife, I do not have horns and I am a Christian. Yes, I live in Utah, but no, I do not know any of the Osmonds.

I enjoy video games and computer games, but don't play that much of either lately. I enjoy playing Lego StarWars with my son, tennis (on the Wii) with my daughter and anything else that seems to be fun when I get a couple of hours to kill.

The thing about being self employed is you can pretty much take time off whenever you'd like, but there is no such thing as paid time off. I work or I don't invoice.

My preference in music is pretty much anything, other than country or rap. I'm sure some of it is fine, but I'm not a fan of twang or whatever it is you call the rhythmic poetry reading that seems to make up most rap. I enjoy classical, some opera, heavy metal, hard rock, pop rock, classic rock, Christian contemporary and most everything else. Okay, I'm not a fan of Asian music. The octave structure is just strange to me. Most notably, I enjoy the Trans-Siberian Orchestra. Anyone who has not heard their music is missing out.

This is probably good enough for a first post, I'll try to post again at least once before I die and if all goes well, no less than once per month and maybe as often as a couple of times a week.

If I haven't bored you to much, come back later. I'll discuss movies, books, games and what it's like being a self-employed husband and father of two trying to mark his mark on the world.
