Hello, There

I swear I have a lot to say here, but I haven't been centered correctly to say it. For me a good blog is about both the aesthetics and the written word. Weebly/Square was my go-to for many years. One day they decided to nerf the old layouts in exchange for more modern site designs. I did not and still do not care for these new layouts. I abhorred them to the point where I completely left this platform altogether. The old layouts still existed, but they were rendered non-responsive to mobile web platforms. Whereas the new layouts were completely able to adapt to how we look at screens on our phones. Not only that, but Weebly/Square decided to no longer support these old layouts. Thus, when I came back and made this blog, my ability to add a header was neutered to the nth degree. That is why I am completely header-less as of this moment. I don't think this is going to change.

If you are unfamiliar with who I am, my name is Samuel. I am 42 years old and I am a writer. I worked in the field of cell phone technology from 2004 to 2011. After that I became a full-time college student and video game journalist. I started blogging with AOL Blogs in 2004, then moved on to LiveJournal, where I still keep a blog that I have not written in consistently since 2008. I've had many blogs that were dedicated to different fields, like baseball, paranormal activity, professional wrestling, and video games. They've all done well, and I hope this one, which I'm going to try to focus on technology and general things on my mind, fares well too.

This website, originally started as a vanity project, has been on the Internet since the summer of 1997. That's when a know-it-all 16 year old jumped on Dell desktop and registered this domain because it was my name and it was cool to have a website with your name on it. I posted the normal things a teenage boy would. I also posted about music, movies I had just seen, and some video game ramblings. Some would count that as my first blog. I would not since they were all just a mish-mash of articles and were not collected in any sort of cohesive journal form. Nope. My first blog was in 2004. That's all there is to say about it.

I hope you enjoy your time here. Drop a comment if you are so inclined.
