Many things in life can be easily summed up by asking yourself three simple questions. These are known as the Who, Why and What

Who is he

GerwinVanDeSteeg, the guy slowly going mad in the corner. (Altho some might claim you can't go something you already are)

Graduated from WaikatoUniversity with a degree in ComputerTechnology and gone on to greener pastures.

Occasionally writes useless and usefull programs that do Stuff. Language preferences at the moment are Perl, PHP, C/C++, or if he can get away with it, a simple bash(1) script.

Why is he here

I think it was just plain good luck on my part that my parents Immigrated here and that I got to tag along, or the massive amount of incredibly bad luck accumulated in the Waikato by it's residents.

What's for lunch

Well.. Anything goes really

Other

Pet Hates

• People who cannot spell properly, form grammatically correct sentences, or use some form of l33t sp34k. Using excessive punctuation is perfectly acceptable however.
