wwnorton:

No Gide! No Proust! Nor anything of the sort!
The Bible. Homer.

What do you do?
I am currently a full time entrepreneur working on film and software projects under 13Bit Productions.
Before that I worked in software, finance, robotics, and new media - always writing software or building stuff - like that time I took apart the mouse at the hedge fund so that the scroll wheel would be disabled.
I have bougie hobbies
Kung Fu
Drumming
Camping
Sometimes I get to Snowboard (I suck)
and when I have the opportunity - I love to go sailing.
Robots Robots Robots

I charge a minimum of 10K per iPhone app. No I will not write your iphone app for a piece of the profits.

Drunken with what? With wine, with poetry or with virtue as you will. But be drunken. (Baudelaire via Symons via Oneil)
