Took on CFO role at Tacit Knowledge. Just make sure all these people you care about have nice jobs, no pressure ;-)
Earned upgrade to "semi-pro" (cat 2) in road cycling. Which means I get to race with and get whipped by the pros, but I don't get paid. But oh the fun I'll have.
Victory! Outsprinted other spandex-clad cyclists for the win at the Timpani Criterium in Men's Elite Category 3.
Victory! Won the Pacific State Bank GP in Men's Elite Category 4. Earned upgrade to Category 3 in road cycling. That's roughly the line between people who have too much time on their hands, and peo...
I become Tacit Knowledge's first non-founding partner. Now they're in for it...
I decide all this typing isn't doing me much good, and take up road racing again for exercise. It's not an addiction, really. The might Team Oakland will never know what hit them, as long as I don'...
Chris Andrasick twists my arm and convinces me to get the band back together, so I become employee #2 at Tacit Knowledge (hi Brian!)
I miss the sunshine and move from San Francisco to Oakland. Did you know that there are places near San Francisco where you can actually sit outside comfortably after 4pm in the summer? I know!! Cr...
Jim Russell Racing School at Infineon Raceway. Sweet!
Propose to Teresa at Lake Como, she says yes! What was she thinking?
Uh-oh - dot-bomb. After four rounds of layoffs at Organic, I decide it's time for a real job. Start working at manageStar, Inc and work my way up to Directory of Engineering
Back at Organic with Chris and Scott, but through H3C now. Much better.
Contracting for other folks is for the birds. Start my own consulting business with Jason Henriksen - H3C.
That's Teresa, of course
No, really, who's that cute girl over there?
You mean, you have to make money to be a business? Weird, but okay. Spark Online is no more, go back to consulting, start working with Scott Askew and Chris Andrasick at Organic Online as a contractor
Who is that cute girl over there?
Wait, Silicon Valley actually isn't that good, and besides, the web is where it's at. Start working with Spark Online and move to San Francisco
Well, as long as I'm homeless, why not just keep going West and see why everyone keeps talking about California? Change jobs to join IT Solutions and move to beautiful Mountain View, California. I'...
Start working with Cambridge Technology Partners as a consultant. No apartment yet, and I'm staffed in Albuquerque, maybe I'll get an apartment later.
Graduate from Rice University! Ok, I still had two left, but I completed them in summer school
Who knew high school science teachers have their annual conference in Vegas?? Someone's got to teach them how to use the GLACIER website...
First paying computer job - "GLACIER" a website supporting a National Science Foundation project that helps high school science teachers communicate with their students (and the world) while they m...
Oops - no real future in that. Time to own up to the nerdiness and just go for Computer Science
Have you ever considered how annoying our health care system is? I have, it sucks. Maybe I'll do Human Performance / Exercise Physiology
Created my first website. Why yes, it was awful
Stu Baur convinces me road bikes are fun, and that it's worth training for Beer-Bike. Which is good, since I didn't make the soccer team.
Enroll at Rice University, in Jones College. JIBA! Doctors are neat, I think I'll be one of those.
Victory! National Academic Decathlon championship. Now I can maybe get into college even though I'm somewhat allergic to busywork/homework
Sure, Academic Decathlon sounds great. Why not spend the junior and senior years of high school studying extra hard?
Joined Future Business Leaders of America. Turns out to be tons of politics and not much actual business. This can't be what business is like, can it? Typing is probably a useful skill though.
Everyone wants to learn how to play the euphonium, don't they? Now I'm cool.
You're not cool if you aren't trying to type in BASIC programs on an Atari with a BASIC programming cartridge. Either that or I'm not cool...I get confused.
Mike is born
