I have a version of this photo without me, but felt compelled to share this one to show that I wasn’t always fat, and I always did wear Birkenstocks.
This vehicle leased in the height of the success of our first web design company. I loved this boxy machine and drove it all over the country. The gas mileage was horrible though.
Soon after this photo was taken I would have to turn it back in. It was no longer in the operating budget. In fact, the company was starting to wind down. After 9/11, internet budgets were slashed as folks shifted back to traditional marketing (print, tv).

In some future, I will have some green boxy vehicle that runs off some sort of electricity!
