Ironically, failing at programming is how I wound up as a webmaster.

During college I wanted to major in programming cause I liked computers. Had to withdraw from my first C++ programming class cause it was too hard, moved too fast and I couldn't keep up. Was soooo discouraged I decided to switch to a business major thinking it would be the easiest way to finish school. First biz class was Economics 101 where we had to read the cover of the Wall Street Journal daily and discuss an article.

This was 1998 and I was 22. After the 3rd time I read "Seth Warshawsky 23 year old internet porn millionaire" I decided to build a porn site.

And here I am 16 years later. If I didn't fail programming I wouldn't be here
