Soliloquy (noun)
- A speech in a drama in which a character reveals inner thoughts as if alone.
- The act of talking to oneself.
(-- From the Random House Webster's Dictionary)
My life is a unique drama of reality, integrated into the overall drama of the lives of multiple individuals.
I aim for this site to be an expression of myself, as my own voice among the many others across the World Wide Web.
I never intended for my "soliloquy" to be fancy with stunning graphics and elaborate layouts. It is simply a brief revelation
of the complexities of my existence -- my opportunity to spurt out what's on my mind as if no one's paying attention
(which may actually be the case as nobody even reads the lenghty paragraphs!). A stream of consciousness, with no boundaries,
no inhibitions -- the exact manner in which I talk to myself in my head. Everything's done ad libitum, at my (the "performer's")
liberty.
Is this site a sign of vanity because it's all about me? Maybe. But I know me better than I know anything else
and part of me also just wanted to design a site for the heck of it, so why not be about me? If you can't understand why people
design sites all about themselves and what they ate for breakfast (AHEM), that's your problem, not mine!
New and Improved!
I've been desigining and re-designing my personal website since 1998. What makes this one so much better than the rest?
It's new, it's updated, it's fresh, it's organized, and it's all my work -- except for the items listed in the credits.
(I've spent time reading up on Adobe PhotoShop,JavaScript, Perl, CGI, etc., but I've realized that I have a million better things
to do with my life than type up all that code! Just leave all that to the "computer people"...)
