"Why not? Why not? Why not not, then, if the best reasoning you can contrive is why not?" - David Foster Wallace
I do what I do because I like learning how things work, taking things apart and seeing what makes them tick. I like taking an idea I have and making something with it, and I like taking things that are broken and making them work. I think if I hadn't gone down the developer path, I might have liked to be a mechanic.
