Just the web developer/webmaster for an online tools suite for an intranet here at the U.S. Dept. of State. I mainly work with perl and JSP on HP-UX, but my workstation has to be windows (policy!). Being a contracter is OK, but I'm bored of IT in general. I do my more fullfilling stuff away from work.

I'd like to get into circuit design like I studied for at Virginia Tech (EE), but the short commute, nice people, god status, and easy money make it difficult to break away. Not to mention, starting at the bottom again with no experience in the field is not terribly appealing.

I spend plenty of time on the net when there is no release coming up, and nobody really cares as long as I'm not looking at pron or downloading a bunch of stuff.

BTW, My avatar is just an old pic from my college days - I do have short hair and look somewhat presentable now
