Life Like Weeds

Obligatory “About Me” Page

I’m a twenty-something web geek living in Philadelphia with my wife and two ornery cats.
During the day, I’m a web developer for the Wharton School. It’s a great gig. I am also doing lots of my co-workers’ blog. With all these information, there’s no need to be vague about my identity anymore.
I’m a recent Apple convert, coding ColdFusion on a shiny MacBook at home and a Windows Vista machine at work.
I like spending time outdoors, walk and experimenting with photography. I take all kinds of pictures, and I’m trying to learn how to improve myself in order to create my own “book”.  I also like to create web sites for non-profit groups and artists.

I love to read. My library is huge, and now I’m also reading a lot of books on the ipad that, I think, is just the most amazing “toy” I have ever played with. The books on these ipads are interactive, and it makes reluctant people want to read more. I also love to watch movies. All types of movies.

One of the latest movies I have seen is “Into the Wild”. I was a little sceptical whether I would like this movie. I actually was pretty convinced that the main character, Christopher McCandless, was a complete idiot. But then, I realized that the Director of this movie, the great Sean Penn, did an amazing job, and presented the story as told in the book. At the end of the movie, I was still thinking that the main character was a complete idiot, but the movie didn’t finish as I expected, which means “devoured” by a grizzly in the middle of the middle of nowhere. Great movie.
