Personal

I'm Sal, and this is my spot. I'm a middle-aged guy with a wife, kids, and a job. Isn't that exciting?? I've had several blogs over the years and have enjoyed all of them. With each iteration, I lower my ambitions, take it less seriously, and try to have more fun. This one is another step in all of those directions, and I'm hoping it sticks around the longest. Disclaimer: I tend to write in short timeboxes and following the 70% rule. If a post seems shallow or half-baked ... yep!
