Who am I?
My name is Brad, a 31 year old computer geek. I started life in computers around age 7, and from there the rest is history. I went to a technical school which I graduated from in 1997, and went right to work for a telecom billing provider, writing COBOL and Perl. In spring of 2007, I transferred within the company to a support position for one of the core products out of Atlanta, GA, where I now work in a Unix/Linux environment.
I’m married to the love of my life, Bethany, as of February 29, 2008 and together we have a beautiful daughter, Emmalynn. Beth and I met via Second Life, and was the reason I moved down south, which is something I had always wanted to do anyway. See, things do happen for a reason.
Why endperform.org?
Well, endperform.org came from a bit of a joke, actually. There’s a statement in COBOL, END-PERFORM, which ends a block of code. I figured it would be geeky (if not funny) to use that to name the site, and now.. here we are.
About the site
The site is my personal site. I used to exclusively blog about technical things, but I’ve been expanding my topics to include things going on in my life. Technically, the site is powered by Wordpress, with a side of Gallery. I’m using multiple plugins with Wordpress to give me things I want to see, and hopefully things others will want to see as well.
