Countless layoffs will do that to you. The fourth or fifth scrambled my brain and lead me down this peculiar path.I wasn't supposed to be an entrepreneur ~ I had no other option. So I began aimlessly building. Then found I enjoyed it.Building lead me to blue chip (.com) domain names. As a solo-operator, they became my unfair advantage & gatling gun as I wandered forward. Into [dude ranching]. Into [ranch employment]. Then ultimately into [agriculture & the Vidalia onion industry].I sometimes write. Poorly? meh. I wrote an essay about onions that folks on Hacker News liked, so I got that going for me.I'm an Ole Miss Rebel, I'll pet cats if I see them, and small town + simple living is the life for me.π¦ β½ π π½οΈ π₯οΈ π β«com π€ πΌ π§ π π§ π¦ π§ β² π€ ποΈ

And you think you have to want more than you need
Until you have it all, you won't be "free"Society, you're a crazy breed
