Caution: Rational Thinking Ahead

"Why GEEK WORLD LIVING?", you ask. Well, it is my world. Not having been graced with the finesse of a dancer, the prowess of an athlete, nor the beauty of a model, I make use with the best I have: a good brain, a rational mind, and a healthy interest in knowing the unknown. My living and my hobbies involve unwinding complexity and solving problems. It's important to understand how and why things work the way they do. It's how we survive.

The work 'geek' connotes different ideas in different circles. For me, geeks have always been my friends; my peers. They understand why I've used a line editor called vi to build this site rather than some fancy WYSIWYG program. Why? Because geekiness is a mindset, a way of being. If you are interested take a look here.

This site really mainly serves as a repository for me to keep track of files, photos, how-tos, faqs, instructions, etc. But since I spend so much time hunting for information I need on other people's web sites, it seems I should, in the spirit of good net-citizenry, give back a bit as well.

The site is divided into four major categories: Geek Stuff - the aformentioned repository; Photos - my online photo collection; Daily life, my and my spouse's personal blogs; and Contact information, just in case, god only knows why, you might want to get in touch.

Have at it and have fun.
