About Me
My name is Andy Goodwin. I'm 30 years old - happily married - and live in a suburb of Chicago.
Personal Stuff:
Personal Stuff:
- I like to cook. I have gotten quite good at some things, and I don't do too well with others. I'm an avid fan of the food network, and I like Alton Brown and Bobby Flay.
- I have recently started getting into indoor gardening and hydroponics.
- I have pet birds. I have a quaker parrot, a senegal parrot, and a parrotlet.
- I watch too much TV and play too much Playstation 3. I also have a Nintendo Wii.
- I take an interest in politics - yet its a difficult subject to talk rationally about with some people. Against my pre-adult political programming, I personally like Barack Obama. I like the change he stands for, and I won't fall into the you-cant-change-government resignation that many fall into and accept the corruption and game that discourages the general public.
- Most of my background is in the UNIX/server/network arena. I am currently an Application Engineer at a large internet site.
- I do programming. Some people don't think PHP is programming, but I also dabble in C.
- I host/manage a few servers of my own, for the purpose of website and DNS hosting.
- I also sell voice over IP on the side.
- Email: andyg@unf.net. Unfortunately, this email address gets a crapload of spam - so sometimes responses aren't quick.

- Yahoo: kingpdm
- MSN: misterpdm@hotmail.com
- Myspace: My profile is here. I like myspace because of the connections and the old friends that have come out of the past, however, its myspace.
