The 2KX Project

The idea for the 2KX project began years ago with NaBloPoMo, and the thought that perhaps it was possible not to simply post every day for a month, but every day for a calendar year.

The 2KX Project is simply. Without rhyme or reason, me doing my best to post for a year. I am armed with internet access virtually everywhere I go, and iPhone which is almost always referred to in the third person. I love it, and don't bother to comment about how much better you think your Blackberry/Droid/G1/MyTouch/Whatever is, I do not care and I do not think that I need Google involved in every moment of my life. Honestly iPhone is a damn decent all in one, and my corporate discount makes the thing cheaper than I can believe. Aside from iPhone, I'm a PC.

Some days my posts will be photographs. In fact many days will be photographs. I have a decent Nikon setup and love photography, but by no means am I a professional. That said, the rights to everything posted on The 2KX Project are reserved by me and images can only be used with permission. Given the open nature of the net, this is more a request than a threat. :-) If you would like to use an image please contact me (there's a little thing about how to do that in the margin) and generally I will be more than happy to send along a watermarked high rez version of the image as long as long as there is no profit involved.

Some days will be me ranting about politics or finance. I am a banker by trade, and quite politically involved as well. For me this leads to a constant battle with my representation and occasionally posts may be their responses to e-mail that I have sent. I usually add my own commentary while doing my best to represent what is original writing and what is my opinion by changing text colors. At no moment should anyone assume that the writings on The 2KX project are in any way affiliated with the people that I am mocking. I will also add the disclaimer that recently my Senators and Congressman have not needed any help from me in making themselves look stupid. They seem to be more than competant in doing that all by themselves.

Some days will be short and sweet, other days lengthy and bitter, but for one year begining January 1st 2010, there will be SOMETHING new here every day. Stay classy internet, and thanks for stopping by, but mostly stay classy internet... Thanks for stopping by...
