What's up with Just Ask Mat?
What's up with the "Just Ask Mat" title?Well, somewhere along the line my wife's friends got the impression that I'm something akin to Wikipedia. If truth be told I used to joke that I wanted to be an expert on everything. Now mind you, the universe was a much smaller place then and yes, it's true, Al Gore had not yet invented the Internet. I can't help it. I love to learn, read, ponder, muse and digest information. I actually like to read history text books. Science? That too. I'll pick up Scientific American and read it just for fun. One time I spent about 3 hours down a rabbit trail reading about the Picts. I really don't know everything and I try to not ever pretend I do. My friends still use me as a primary research tool when they want to buy any form of electronics because they know the geek that I am and that I've probably done the research for them already. I can say that I rock at Trivial Pursuit, but we must remember it is called TRIVIAL pursuit so lets not mistake any amount of knowledge that I do have as earth shattering, time altering, life changing information to hang on to. So go ahead ask me. I may not know the answer, but you never know and if not I'll probably love learning about something new. Then we'll both be more knowledgeable. Have a nice day.Mat
