Sorry guys, but maybe this will solve that beetle problem you have going.

BTW, my desktop background is from http://www.webdesignerwall.com .  I am a big fan of his work.

So if you have been wondering what I have been up to the past couple of years, here's a quick update.  Basically, I've been living in The Gambia, West Africa, where I started a company building web publishing software.  Thus all the postings about "new version released" and so on.  The Gambia  is a warm little country and I live with my girl friend/business partner Melanie Radtke. She's a gem and one of the main reasons I am here.  We've been working at our little company with the help of some good staff we've managed to find here.   We live just a few minutes walk from the Atlantic ocean, in fact, I can hear the surf crashing as I write this and this evening I took our two dogs down to the beach to watch the sunset and drink a beer.  Did I mention we have 2 dogs?  Mela is not here at the moment.  She's off visiting her family and friends in Germany. 

Life is very simple right now.  I spend many, many hours being very productive on the computer, trying to build our product.  I'll be posting more information here about that later.  Suffice it to say though, this website runs on it, which is why you may find I change the design a lot.  (Our product makes changing the design very easy) 

I'm planning to post a few different blogs channels here on the site.  One on web design and technology since thats what I spend a lot of time on these days.  Maybe I can help some one out with something I've learned.  I've learned countless things from the people online.  Second, I am planning to organize some thoughts on Theology.  Which I spend a lot time thinking about as well.  Third, more postings just like this, about whats happening in my life, where I'm at and whats going on so all my friends and family can keep up with me. 

This is the first post on the blog from my new website.  I've created this site to allow me to test out the new features of the web publishing platform I have been building for the past year.  The product is getting near to its first full release. 

I also want to use this site as my personal communication tool with my friends/family or other interested parties on the things I'm experiencing and learning as I make my way through life. 

I hope you enjoy the content I put up here!
