About Felix

Felix was raised on a macrobiotic diet of lentils, kelp and tofu. That's probably why he currently subsists on Slim Jim's and Slurpees. Born in the frigid north of Wisconsin and raised in the fun and sun of Daytona Beach, he now lives in Tampa, Florida with his wife, daughter and four-legged hairy son with a speech impediment. When not making a total ass of himself in the public forum of the Internet, he can be found developing said Internet from the comfort of his office cube. Oh yeah, he also has a Bachelors Degree in Computer Science from the University of South Florida -- not that you give a crap... honestly.
