+## Milliron X - The homepage of Thomas A. Christensen II
+
+I am an engineer by training, a rancher by upbringing, a techie by experience,
+and a filmmaker at heart. I've got a soft spot for Brown Swiss dairy cows (just
+in case you couldn't tell by the background image), and am sometimes called "one
+of those crazy, Wyoming dairy cow people." I love anything to do with cattle or
+technology, but especially anything to do with both of them.
+
+_Christian, American, Conservative, Pro-gun, Heterosexual - any questions?_
+
+### What is a "Milliron X"?
+
+#### It's a [cattle brand], of course! My cattle brand!
+
+The **milliron** is the bar with a bend in the middle. It does not represent
+anything physical or textual _per se_, and is therefore a rather unique element
+in cattle brands. Millirons are difficult to modify into another brand, and
+provide a guarantee of authentic ownership.
+
+**X** is the letter of mystery and mystique. For nerds, it's the unknown in any
+algebra problem. Ranchers and cowboys will associate it with big names like the
+"Bar X" and the "Double X." In either case, it lends itself to a sense of
+withholding, prestige, and power.
+
+Together, these two symbols represent the qualities I strive for in each of my
+works: authenticity, originality, power, depth, and prestige.

This is sort of my landing page, but it also doubles as my internet workshop.
- I'm always testing things here that I want to put in other sites I'm working on,
- and its code isn't always the cleanest.
- Please forgive any layout or content mistakes you find here.
