The first half of my hair disappeared about two months ago. Most of the rest left today. I visited a barber for the first time in about 5 years. Hope you like it. I do. It was time for a change and this one feels good.
I am a husband, father, reader, writer, researcher, occasional website designer and administrator, and all-around geek. I am also a musician who plays the guitar and the bass; I have played as a studio musician for other artists. I am an avid and voracious reader, speak several languages, have worked as an information consultant on topics including culture, language, religion and computers, and spent several years running a small business in North Africa.
This is where I write occasional notes about things I want to remember or about stuff that a friend or acquaintance might find interesting; kind of like a Twitter feed, but with more than 140 characters per post.
You can email me at matthew AT matthewhelmke DOT com with any comments or questions.
I spend more time posting on Google+, and you can also find me occasionally hanging out on Facebook, and Twitter. You will even find me on LinkedIn and on Amazon.com.
Looks good! Big change though.
Thanks!
Nice looks!
I somewhat like to go to my barber, though I do not like the wait. A comforting experience.
He’s Moroccan, by the way.
We are ordering “humor and Moroccan” culture from amazon tonight. My 9 year old son, also named Matthew Helmke, found you on google. He thinks it’s great that he shares a name with someone who wrote a book. I’m just thrilled that he found a book that interests him, whatever the reason. I’m looking forward to reading it myself. I can say its something I know nothing about!
I hope you enjoy the book! Thank you for ordering it. Great choice on your son’s name.
