5 Things You Might Not Know About Ben Jackson

I don’t know why this appealed to me, considering that I can’t stand these things on Facebook/e-Mail/etc, but since Andrew Hay did it, and since he started it, I felt like I should play along.

  1. I was the host of a weekly “hacker” podcast for about a year. It was a lot of work, but I do miss it. It was fun to rant and rave for a few hours a week.
  2. I did not go to any dances or proms in High School
  3. I am a published author. Another one of those things that was a lot of work but it was a lot of fun at the same time.
  4. My wife and I met on the Internet before it was “trendy”. For a long time we would skirt the question “How did you meet?” because of the looks we would get. During our wedding, the priest mentioned it in his sermon and we were sure that this was the first time a few people in the audience found out.
  5. I flunked out of Computer Science in college (Calculus) and transferred to Computer Engineering Technology (“Computer Engineering lite” as I called it) which I graduated from.

I will not, however, “tag” anyone else. I can’t stand being “tagged” and therefore will not “tag” anyone myself.

  2. I knew all of these. What a let down.
