Engineer, Dad, Maker, Artist, Ballroom Dancer, Entrepreneur, Axe-flinger, Pain-In-The-Ass

I make chainmaille and wire sculpture, 3d print toys my kids love to lose, teach and adore ballroom dancing, profile my own throwing axes (and fling them!), rebuild bits of my moldering Victorian home, and generally tinker with everything from computers to woodworking to gmrs radio(WRON559).

I owned and ran an industrial automation consulting firm for 20 years, and helped found the amazing Tech Valley Center of Gravity, makerspace and home away from home to my tribe...

We're like one professional wrestler and a machine gun away from locking in "Idiocracy" as a perfect prediction.

They *did* predict Crocs

snopes.com/fact-check/idiocrac…

Everyone in 'Idiocracy' Wears Crocs Because They Were 'Horrible' and Cheap?

The movie was filmed in 2004, two years before the controversial foam based footwear product took over the world.

Ugh. I can't imagine anyone except President Camacho who would have chosen this timeline.
