Hi! My Name is Rick...

I am a jack of all trades who doesn't know when to quit and has no time to worry about risks. I do what I feel needs to be done and live life with no regrets. I enjoy reading, writing, MMA, keeping reptiles, traveling, self improvement and technology. If I had to describe myself I would say I am a man of many facets..

THIS IS MY BLOG...

This is where I put all my incoherent ramblings for the world to read. This little site filled with random thoughts, opinions and facts is an extention of myself. If you are worth the air you breathe you will read every last post, comment often and check back daily to see if I have added any more content.

A New Path

So I finally decided that this domain which I formally used as my security consulting companies website address would be changed into a personal blog. The reasoning behind this is that I am moving in many new directions in my life. Network penetration testing was at one time a passion, something I enjoyed so deeply that I formed a business and career around it. However, as of today I have lost the spark that once was. I have came a long way since the days of old, becoming proficient in numerous programming languages and working my way into thousands of systems over the years. I have enjoyed the security field both in a professional and hobbyist context. It is time for me to return to those hobbyist roots

As I move beyond the technological realm into various other interests in my life I plan to document it here. Currently I am working on a forthcoming venture into the reptile feeder business. Reptiles have been a large focus of mine for a long time and I feel that going in this direction will help me take my life down the road I have long wanted to travel. Though I agree with most that it is a strange time to change careers, with a 5-½ month old son and a wife to support, I am positive that it is the right move. George S. Patton once said, “A good plan violently executed now is better than a perfect plan executed next week.”

Approaching technology as a hobby again instead of a profession feels good. The monkey is off my back and the weight off my shoulders. Thank you to everyone who has helped me learn what I know and so what I have done. Now we shall see what I am really made of.
