Servers and Sandwiches

In the beginning Andrew said “Let there be web pages”, and there were, and they were good.

When I built my server 7 years ago, I created a nice little web page talking about my life and everything. It was just that…. little and nice. Over the years though it has taken a life of it’s own, growing, maturing, and developing into the server it is today. It has taken many hours of coding and troubleshooting to get it to this stage, but I’m really happy with the work so far.

See…. building a server is like making a sandwich. You can’t just get the ingredients out of the fridge, and set them on the counter expecting to have a sandwich. No, you’ve got to put work and love into it. I started out with PB&J. I got some bread, peanut butter, and jam for a quick fix. Over time I swapped out for some ham and cheese. Then some lettuce, mayo, and onion. Now I’ve got a full blown hot Italian roast beef with aujous, sauteed mushrooms and onions, melted provolone cheese, and sweet peperoncini all on a fresh toasted hoagie bun.

Anyway… time for lunch.
