Interesting questions popped up when I decided to make a ME page. Everyone that has a homepage, has a page about himself or herself, usually they talk a little about their hobbies or about what they enjoy for lunch, their favorite car or whom they are dating. After a while I start to think that Johnny the mechanic is going to be just like Bobby the sailor and Lisa the fast food manager is just like Tina the New York stripper, and I no longer stop to see who these people are. If everyone (not just me) did the same thing then surfing might not be so fun. Essentially it would be an extremely large shopping center or a continuously refreshing commercial.

It becomes increasingly difficult to capture the essence of who a person is or what they are all about, how they drive the world and those around them when all you see and hear is exactly what they want you to know: all the good with candy frosting minus the bad equals the average online personality. I believe that a person is much more than a bunch of '0's and '1's traveling across the planet and that you can never truly get to know or respect a person over such distance.

So without further ado:

Hello, my name is Israel.
