Server Cabinets

Originally this was the Novell server at Kentson when I started working there. When it came time to dump it, I thought it was too pretty to throw away. So, my friend George helped me put on a handle, some

Pro wrestling class

This page is really only for family and friends. It won’t mean much to most people. If you’re one of those, move on. There’s lots of other stuff on the internet to look at. The only reason I don’t block

Dirt!

Keyboard through table
