Hi, I'm an Internet programmer living in Chandler AZ. Have been working mostly with ASP.NET in C#.

That's actually not me in the picture. Found this little abandoned guy standing by the side of the road next to what I suppose was a dead dog buddy. He's was friendly to everybody, young, old, human, animal, male or female. Who would abandon a dog like this?

It took a little while to name him. I thought he looked like a 'Sparky' but had another name I was considering. I can't remember it now. Glad I went with Sparky. Don't know what he was called originally but Sparky seemed to suit him just fine. He always came when called unless he was distracted. He was distracted most of the time. But he always came when I called and had food.





I lived in Indiana for a while. This cat that just showed up one day. It was pretty freaked out. Took months and a cold winter before it would come inside. I named it "black cat". Thought it was pretty fitting. Didn't really know his name anyway.





Here's another pet cat named Shou-Li (pronounced "show lee"). Don't ask. But he knew his name sort of. I would make a sound like the word "show". Say it repeatedly with an emphasis on the "sh". Sort of like, "shoshoshosho". That was a name a cat could relate to evidently. He'd also come if I rapped his food dish with a spoon.









Here are before and after picture of the same wall of a barn I referbished in Indiana. I wanted a studio with a lot of light and this worked out well.
