After constant encouragement from The Wife, I have decided to update the About Me section. A lot has changed since the last time I updated it. I got married, laid off, returned to school, got a hair cut, gained weight, lost tonsils, gave up PlayStation, got another haircut, bought a car, sold a car, ate breakfast, switched to Sprint, came back to T-Mobile, switched to Verizon, returned to T-Mobile, vowed never to leave T-Mobile again, got yet another hair cut, moved, bought abother car, sold another car, stopped wearing an earring, and learned how to occasionally contain myself instead of saying something I will inevitably regret.

I am siknerd ('Nerd or the 'Nerd for short) and this is my website. Its only real relevance is for those who play softball with me--but that's not why I made it. I created this site three years ago because I wanted to prove to myself that I could build a website. Many hours and 17,000 changes later, here it is. I post jokes, pictures, games, and of course--the world famous iRANT (if the burger joint down the street can call itself world famous, I can too).

As of now, I an Unemployed Gambling Addict. I use to have a job, but when the economy tanked my employer realized how little I did and got rid of me. Losing my job might've been the second best thing to happen to me (the first was getting hired, otherwise I would have never met The Wife). Now that I'm unemployed, I'm free to choose a new direction for my life...which mainly involves Dorritos and playing Mike Tyson's Punch-Out.

I live in Orange County, California (turns out there's another Orange County in Florida--who knew?) with my also-unemployed wife. I hate The Man, excess government spending, people who refuse to accept responsibility for their mistakes, communists, stupid people, elitists, folks who make too much money, and Kevin Costner. My likes include sports, duct tape, "Seinfeld" references, political talk radio, and Jews. I think I've disclosed enough about me to satisfy The Wife's encouragement...yet have been vague enough so future employers won't be able to find me. Seeya.
