Yes, I still exist.  That is all.

I'm surprised at the number of people who have been saying that an apprenticeship is a good idea ( Read more... )

It's been a long time... and I've been thinking that I need a serious career change, into a job that will never be shipped overseas (until planetwide matter teleportation is possible).  I want a job that will pay well, and help me provide for my family ( Read more... )
