I&#8217;m Kerry McCullough, a 30 year old web designer &#038; developer, programmer, and just over all computer geek. I&#8217;m a wanna be writer, father of three, and a candlestick maker. OK, not that last one. I have an Associate Degree in <em>Computer Information Systems<\/em> and a year into a Bachelor Degree in <em>Game &#038; Simulation Programming<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>I first started programming in the first grade with good &#8216;ol <acronym title=\"Beginner's All-Purpose Instructional Code\">BASIC<\/acronym> on the Apple <em>II<\/em>e. I graduated up to <acronym title=\"QBasic\/QuickBasic\">QB<\/acronym> and learned enough Assembly to fill in the areas where QB was lacking (mostly graphics programming). I was a heavy QB hobbyist for a long time, even as I learned <acronym title=\"Visual Basic\">VB<\/acronym> 3, VB 5, and then VB6. I spent a lot of time working in VB 6&#8212;I consider myself quite the expert&#8212;before moving into C++ on the Windows platform. I even found time to learn HTML and JavaScript back when the web still looked like it was designed by a bunch of color blind kindergarteners. I later fell in love with PHP and I&#8217;ve been using it since. I taught myself C# in about an hour sufficiently to pass test-out exams for beginners and advanced courses, and taught myself Perl in a few days sufficiently enough to get the job. I worked as a C++ programmer with a game development company for a while and spent some time fiddling with C++ programming in Linux, but I eventually settled on mostly web design &#038; development. I&#8217;m not a huge fan of Flash, but I know enough ActionScript to make a decent application. I&#8217;ve never learned Java, but once you know C you can pretty much read all C based languages, and I&#8217;ve been known to debug some Java code here and there when I&#8217;m asked to. I even spent some time learning Haskell, but it was just for fun and I can&#8217;t really think of any use I would have for it personally.<\/p>\n<p>I have a lot of ideas for stories, but I don&#8217;t consider myself to be a very good writer. I try anyway, because I enjoy it. I write poetry on occasion, but those occasions are few and far between and initiated only by a heavy surge of inspiration. My favorite band is <em>Pink Floyd<\/em> and I mostly listen to classic rock, but I enjoy listening to just about any music, except mostly Country. I&#8217;m not a huge movie buff or anything, but I very much enjoy movies. Some of my favorites are <em>Ray<\/em>, <em>Fight Club<\/em>, <em>The Matrix<\/em>, <em>Spirited Away<\/em>, and <em>Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind<\/em>, though not in any particular order and not necessarily at the top of my list.<\/p>\n<p>If you are interested in hiring me take a look at my <a href=\"http:\/\/www.subone.org\/blog\/portfolio\">Portfolio<\/a> page where you can download my resume and take a look at some examples of my fine work!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hi!
