| Introduction | Hi, I'm Jared. First things first, this must be said. I am a dork (although I hear in other countries this word doesn't translate well.) Let me help you out with my personal definition of a dork. I think a dork has something that makes them a little different from everyone else, because they have a love for something that maybe goes against the image they have, but that would describe everyone, right? A dork is the person proud of that difference. I am a dork! I love to laugh, I love to think the world can be good and that there is something in it for everyone. My father always told me that I tend to think sideways, meaning that "some people look at an object and see what it will be; some people look at an object and see what it could be; and then there's my son Jared, who looks at an object and turns it into a million other things then what it actually is." That is me to a "T", I think. And I don't think anyone has put it quite as "nail-on-the-headish" as my dear old dad. :) |
