"I'm a hammer swinger."

You must be thinking, who is this lovable character called Nate. Unfortunately for you, and me, he’s technology impaired. The man has never been on social media much less the back end of a website. Never. Not even Myspace. This place would be a hot mess if he were left to his own devices. In his own words, “I’m a hammer swinger.” Take that for what you will.

There are things he can do that I’ll never be able to fully explain. The scenario at home usually looks like this: Nate corners me, where I can’t run away or hide, and starts explaining some highly technical, mechanically driven description of some very specific thing of a thing he’s working on. This continues for hours, until all the patience and love for him has left me, and, as fast as I can, I cut him off, saying, “You should call your Dad.”

He’s got the facts. If you read technical manuals, spec sheets, measure for fun, or draw out building plans, like with a pencil, not a computer, he’s your guy. I won’t withhold this from you. I’ll be sitting with the creative folks pretending to understand. Keep your eyes peeled for “Technical Talk with Nate.” It will be at the bottom, when it makes sense, and/or when he writes it all down. With a pencil.
