Eternal Works in Progress

I've been addicted to the Internet since before Windows 95. I can't tell you how often I have sat down and said "today is the day I finish my website". I can tell you thatI've actually gotten pretty close...twice?

The first time, I had managed to use Netobjects Fusion to get a site going on vilsack.virtualave.net. I managed to write a little bit, and had something that, at the time, was considerably more respectable than the assault on your senses that was located mostly at Geocities. Hell, it even had pixel perfect positioning!

Then, about four years ago, I managed to have something even better. It was a site based on a small CMS I was trying to code for myself. It had pictures, my resume, and even a hand-coded journal. I eventually ditched it when I joined the MODx team, but nevertheless...it was ALMOST a real website!

Now, I am getting really close to finalizing this design for a new and exciting page. In fact, this very text will be serving as a more coherent "Lorem Ipsum" so I take more ownership of my creation.

I realize this is all incredibly boring, but for me, this is a big step for me.
