Happy Birthday
Today is Jason's birthday. I orignally met Jason when we were both in school at Old Dominion University in the Spring of 1992. We had been in a Pascal programming class the previous fall. I noticed that we were both in the same C programming class that spring and said Hi.
A lot has changed since using the Sun Sparc stations in the labs to locate "non youth images" and hanging out at the local Orion BBS functions. We have both moved from our hometowns. We have both grown up and been successful in our careers. We have both gotten married-He was the best man at my wedding. Jason now has a wife, two kids, and something like 15 computers. Would you believe that at one point he owned a Micro-vax?
His favorite new toy is his powerbook. Well at least I think it is his favorite. I have been ragging on him about his powerbook (powerbrick) for a few months now. For his birthday, I am actually going to post a picture of his Apple dream unit.
