Greetings and Salutations to you, dear reader.

https://www.waccobb.net/forums/waccobb/keep90days/2019-01-16_10-42-a27.pngI wanted to say that your bulletin board is fascinating in many ways, the first and foremost is the daily poem, which I really appreciate with many gratitudes.

I recently added my little business to your Business Directory (https://www.waccobb.net/directory/higher-source-sites.html), in the hope that i might actually meet and help someone, or some company with their website work. I've done a bunch of things in my life and this is what i have settled into, since 2001, with some stops along the way.

Back in the day when i lived in Berkeley i worked at Lawrence Berkeley Lab for 15 years: first in operations, then consulting, programming, and business programming. That covered a lot of work between 1979 and 1995. That included things like Pascal, Fortran, Cobol, Forth, assembly language, awk, sed, all the shells ( Bourne, Korn, C shell), and of course C. Also did i mention CICS, and so on.

Prior to that i was a very into Poetry in San Francisco, and had courses with Creeley, Nanos Valoritis, and the surrealist poet Philip Lamantia. My basic interest continues, still loving many fine poets: Merwin, Bly, Kinnell are at the top of the heap for me. Anyway after the LBL i freelanced in the city for about 11 years, doing mostly database admin work with Oracle and Informix.

These days i stick with what i think i do well, building and helping folks with their website. I major in WordPress, and prefer that framework. I've worked with authors and artists lately, bloggers, travellers, and non profits. I think i am pretty good and probably charge about a third of the large companies. I have almost no overhead, of course there is the home mortgage, but i do all my own work, do not hire out from India or any of that stuff. I like to think i am very responsible and responsive. My option to build cheap and then have the management program pays for kibble ( did i say we also run a dog rescue? visit us at our rescue (https://rescuefornorthbaybeagles.com)site. You can contact me about any work you might think you need. I'm am pretty much on Facebook every day so you can friend me there as well.

Sincerely, Edward ( Higher Source Sites ).
