Music

I play piano, drums, saxophone, clarinet, bass and guitar. I haven't played in a band for a number of years now, but given that I'm no longer living in different places at different times of the year, I'm looking to start one again. Below are some bands I enjoy:

Domestic Problems, Dave Mattews Band, Bruce Springsteen, Béla Fleck and the Flecktones, Diana Krall, Creedence Clearwater Revival, Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers, They Might Be Giants, The Rolling Stones, O.A.R., Moxy Füvous, Miles Davis, Jimmy Buffet, Jimi Hendrix, Frank Sinatra, Joe Cocker

Computers

I try to run UNIX based systems whenever possible. I like the power and stability they give me. My desktop OS of preference is Mac OS X, while on servers I run FreeBSD. I am indifferent towards Linux.

This Site

This site is run on a FreeBSD machine, running Apache HTTPD. HTML::Mason keeps my head sane and allows me to do fun stuff with perl on the site. mod_perl keeps everything fast.

The images on this site come from my personal photography, that of friends, and stock images. They were cropped and tweaked for color balance and light levels in Adobe Photoshop.

The files that run this site were edited using the excellent editor, BBEdit.
