This blog is brought to you by… No, this strange collection of meticulously documented, albeit random thoughts has been orchestrated by Alex Weinstein, a twenty-something Seattle-ite.

A fan of coffee, theater, and travel, he nevertheless does not give up the lasting passion for technology in lieue of kitschy, momentary desires.

A Program Manager at Microsoft by day, yours truly spends his nights coding away at his pet projects; he can, however, relax once in a while and enjoy a glass of Cognac, preferrably with a delightful, opinionated better half named Irina.

The two of them reside in Belltown, supporting the local economy by consuming dangerous amounts Starbucks coffee. A brie sandwich is the best way to lure Alex into a trap of shopping; Irina can be easily convinced to go to the gym by a promise of (unbelievable) Qdoba. Heck, Alex likes it too – we’re not that snobby.
