Is something that you know, not everybody can do not everybody wants to do.
If they do want to do it not everybody has the ability to do it. It’s not an easy thing what we’ve chosen to do.
but there are times when
I sit back and I go.
I just do this because I like it. I just do this for the sheer Joy of it.
The other day, and I’m going to get really technical. Please forgive me.
These are the kinds of things that the Geeks geek out on the other day.

down the road
The reason that I did them which was to make doing these videos.
Easier and faster and make me more agile at creating content.
That gives me a great deal of joy.
It gives me a sense of satisfaction a sense of accomplishment.
