Food for Thought
Welcome!
I am a technical writer – and this site contains the things I like most: thoughts and ideas, some background information on some of my hobbies, poems I like and sayings I endorse. Hope you find it of interest, entertaining or even helpful…

I hope this little site provides some information or food for thought, entertaining insights – or just plain fun.
If you like it, leave me a comment, if you don’t – constructive criticism is also welcome!
