mastodon 4.7.3+glitchI launched my first website on 12/31/95, and it's still online and regularly updated. So I'm an old :)
By day, I am a freelance sales consultant for the digital agency world. When not working, I'm volunteering with Virginia Master Naturalists, camping, or at the beach. . #Hiking, #SaintsFC, #Baseball, #Birding, #Purdue, #Camping, #Music, #rva, #RVLife #RedSox

Ugh.

There is a crook in the White House. We are losing a war. We are sending people to the moon.
What year is it?
