Short Mammal Silent Louse Not all that uncommon a story. I started out playing Atari 2600 VCS games at my neighbor's house at the age of about 5-6, which eventually led me to touching EVERYONE's computers along the way, eventually having my own, eventually getting a job to support my hobbies, running a BBS, moving to Silicon Valley to become a network engineer, then coming back to be a Sr. UNIX admin, then go to DevOps/CICD, now a Sr. Systems Architect, etc.
