I became a programmer because my creative skills were… well, lacking – so as painful as this may be, please bear with me. I’m the new guy here at Sixthman. Contrary to popular belief, my job is to ensure Joy is in a constant state of ecstasy. Writing software and assisting Peter is a secondary task. Joking aside, I’m excited about this new chapter in my career. Working for Sixthman so far has been a dream. Lake day was amazing, and I’ve learned working hard and playing hard aren’t mutually exclusive.

Fortunately you don’t have much of a bio to write about when you only have 17 years of experience under your belt, so this post should be brief. My name is Michael Ruddy (my friends just call me Ruddy) and I recently graduated from Faith Academy high school. It’s a place where teenagers go so they can graduate regardless of their cognitive abilities. I finished in the upper half of my class, thank you very much.

As you may know, I’m a staunch Libertarian. If I haven’t tried to impose my political views on you already, don’t worry, I will. Please don’t take it the wrong way; I’m just trying to be informative. If mainstream won’t tell you the truth, I will! If anyone wants to talk about econ, government, or anything else, drop me a line (Michael at Sixthman.net).

My hobbies also include computer games, jogging, and hibernating. If I’m not gaming, jogging, or working, I’m probably asleep.. Except for driving, I’m half awake then… I think that just about wraps up my life story (in 4 paragraphs, I know, it’s sad). If there’s any dire details that you want to know, you can shoot me an email, or just leave a comment.
