    I have been in business for many many years, and worked in marketing businesses long before the web became mainstream. I really got online with work in about 96/97 when the Uk was just waking up.

    In 1999 I knew nothing about making websites, nor did I know anything about the internet except how to check my e-mail, surf and play a few games.

    Ah but I am OLD lol.

    in 1980 I spent a little under £100 on a ZX80 1k supercomputer I have pretty much played with them ever since, although I am not a techie by any stretch of the imagination. I just saw the web for what it is, the best marketing tool ever invented. Imagine selling a newspaper, and then being able to see who is looking at what page, and which articles are not being read, and which of your advertisment images are looked at the most. That is what the web does, and the moment I found that out I knew the web would eventually give me my income.

    Hmmm, about 2001 (ish) and mostly by accident. I got fed up repeating myself on message boards and figured it was easier to just point at a page and say, 'read that'. Having said that, I was trained as a programmer way back in the mid-eighties when a Sinclair Spectrum was as high-tech as a home computer got and the internet was really a bunch of bulletin boards strung together.

    Heh! A zx81! I remember those too, OWG. Three hours typing in a program in BASIC just to watch a letter 'J' hook a letter 'O' from a row of dots pretending to be an ocean. The good old days.

    I work in lounge pants, and I really don't, "work". If I did, someone shoot me, PPPPPAAAALLLEEEZZZZ.

    I do not like calling it, "work".

    I hear those who say they, "Paid the Price of Success".

    I'd like to think I, "Enjoyed the Price of Success", as one noble authoritarion stated.

    Enjoy your success. Enjoy your, "Hard work". Enjoy life.

    And may God Bless Everyone!

    Does this flight come with a vomit bag?

    I'm working hard but enjoy this type of work. I'm hoping someday maybe I'll be even half as successful as you are Paul.
