You SUCK AT HTML? Maybe, but I really like how your site looks! Maybe it's just me but I love simple sites... Ok ok I don't like when I click e.g. on "Recommended Products" menu and see only blank space... is it really blank or only not FireFox friendly? (=> I am lazy to swith browser or look at source markup).
Never forget: "Stay kul and happy" (I.A.)

No DUDE! I really suck. It's only IE friendly. I'm going to rebuild it very soon I love my logo and that's about the only thing going for it. I'm big into orange and black and green too. That's why I like it here.

This is not me whining but it's a story that comes up in some strange ways so it is a bit worth telling once in a place where people can just read it and move on.
In December 1999 I got hired by America's largest semi-conductor maker. Did really well there authored some very cool systems had a great time. I worked in C/C++, SAP R/3, Perl, VB6 and some small Java stuff. Good times.
In December of 2001 my daughter was born with a very serious condition read it here: http://www.pediatricparents.com/Katie.htm[^] (that's current to about 10 days before I got laid off).
February 19, 2003 we sold our current home. It had to many nightmares (saving daughter's life) for us and we wanted to move.
February 21, 2003 I was laid off from work. We were spending $3000 a month out of pocket to feed my daughter and losing my job was devastating. We had no income.
February 24, moved out new occupants moved in. Nowhere to live. Moved in with friends into 1600 square foot home bringing 4 of us and lots of medical equipment. Didn't work. Son was pretty freaked out. Moved from place to place to place. Finally 3 months later got excellent job (for 9 days, didn't know that at time). Got qualifified for current home.
May 15, 2003 we moved in. Katie had a room, Grant had a room and we had a family once again. May 20th contract job ended suddenly. Company lost the bid and almost closed do to problems. We now had a house payment to make.
I went through a series of struggles with school and other things and finally decided to go on my own.
April 30, 2004 I incorporated as Code-frog System Architects, Inc.
Life didn't get any easier but it's slowly improving. So here I am.
None of this is cry for sympathy or other comments. Life happens and here we are. We just had some very bad luck but everyone does at times. No big deal.

I'm very glad everything is going better now, both for you as a family and specially for Katie. She's three years old now, right? How has she been doing lately?
It's great you had the strength to come back after all that! Keep it up, things are getting better!!

She will be 4 on December 20th. She's doing okay. She has some minor issues with her duodenum but we are not operating. Things will be really interesting once she starts school. That will probably be more psychic wars I'd like to forget but no point hiding from it. We have 90% of what we need to manage her and after that we just go to Pediatrics and it's usually not a big deal there. Usually...
I'd have to say that all in all we are doing well. We are definitely feeling lifes pressures but these days who isn't? No matter what happens life always gets better. You just gotta be willing to ride it all out. After a while your level of normal adjusts and then you just bump along.
It's a whole lot better than it was and for that I'm very grateful. What the future holds I cannot guess at but the past has not been too bad and they say you can see the future by looking at the past. We'll make it...
and on those really rough days that it just all piles up...
BRING ON THE TACOS!!! Yeah, I am nuts!

Yes, you'll always face some problems in different aspects of life, but that's to make it interesting. I always think that if life didn't have problems, how boring it would be. And also, these kind of things are only tests, and when you pass them, great things follow!

Never been to Mexico (but I plan on going sometime). I bet you guys have excellent Tacos (understatement of the millenium). I'm a huge taco fan. I believe that life's problems can be solved in taco contemplation.

People who don't understand how awesome Firefox is have never used CPhog. The act of using CPhog alone doesn't make Firefox cool. It opens your eyes to the possibilities and then you start looking for other things like CPhog and your eyes are suddenly open to all sorts of useful things all through Firefox. - (Self Quote)
