The thing about experimenting that excites us is the same thing that makes it scary – experimenting. Breakthroughs and failures, no guarantees. Five reasons why I began blogging 90-100 days ahead:

You Automatically Knew The Answer To Yesterday’s Question, Didn’t You?

Oh sure, he's more qualified, he's got an extra eye.

Professional antagonist is a quality jeff noel has (naturally) spent his entire life (52 years) honing. It wasn’t something noel set out to become. It evolved, slowly, steadily, tirelessly.
