A few years ago if you told me I’d have spent a lean hour on a Saturday afternoon, setting up a new domain and preparing to establish a hosting account it would have resulted in two reactions. 1) I would have not understood a word you had said and in an attempt to hide my ignorance would either have attacked you, or would have openly mocked you and 2) once I did understand, I would have met your words with total disbelief. I did not see that one coming.
Which just goes to show, you can’t predict the strange and varied path that life can take. You also can’t predict the movement of factors outside of your control. I couldn’t have seen that a) the internet would be such an amazing thing to be involved with by this point in the turbulent year of 2006 or b) that my never ending will to do something better than the daily 9-5 grind would push me at this point into a new venture. The launch of a new company possibly allowing me to spend my time creating things and working in my garden or plunging me into bankruptcy and hopeless oblivion. Either way, it’s good to shuffle the deck from time to time and this path at least seems to point the way towards joke, late-nights and more swearing and that can surely only be a good thing.
