Heh. It was less honesty and more naivety.

My poor mother paid $6.95 an hour for that. Insane in hindsight.

Pour one out for my mom, now long passed away: she encouraged my computer monkey business and let me build skills for a viable career, even though it cost her an arm and a leg. I like to think she knew, but in reality I suspect she simply wanted to make me happy.
