Introduction
This is the page where I tell you how great I am and all the obstacles
that I have overcome to achieve the illustrious position of newbie.That's
right you heard it directly from the horse's mouth.This wonderful presentation
was done by a beginner.This is really getting deep!I better try not to
lose everyone and give you an idea of why I am so deranged.
The serious and somewhat personal story of the dark side of my life
can been seen at my personal
site .I will use this page for a more current bio on my business experience
and my new infatuation with this awesome machine called a computer.
The Business Side
My business career started after a rather dubious career in doing
nothing but jumping from job to job with nothing left but welfare. My wife
and I fell to the bottom with no money or possessions.We started
a small furniture refinishing shop in the basement of our rented
apartment.I knew nothing about antiques but decided to buy what we thought
was old furniture at garage sales. It would take a book to document that
learning experience but ignorance was definitely in my corner.We actually
started to make enough money that our assistance was taken away and we
were on our own.To give you a reference of our financial status.......my
wife came to me one day and said she heard of a building for rent that
would cost $50 a month and I replied .......have you lost your mind,where
will we get that kind of money!The rest is history and at one time we had
two stores with over 70,000 sq. ft but have now settled into a modest 15,000
sq. ft. store with sales in the .......lets just say we came a long way
baby.
PC's and ME
This
part of my story is only nine months old and I have definitely found a
challenge that I will never overcome. My first couple of months was just
clicking on every link within reach. Then I got into the voice phones and
talked to people all over the world, just totally amazing....no long distance.
I then started collecting sounds and .gifs until I found my new love, making
web sites and graphics. I have five sites up...... not the greatest but
a work in progress.I will be glad to help all other newbies and I have
some experience in MS Publisher,Web 3-D,PSP,Composer ,Pixel 3-D ,Graphic
Workshop,WS-FTP 95 le and I am starting on Gif Construction. bye
