-    I'm one of those crazy, Wyoming dairy cow people. (Just in case you couldn't tell by the background image.) Some of my other favorite pastimes are videography, ranching/livestock, the history of the American West.
+    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 &quot;one of those crazy, Wyoming dairy cow people.&quot;
     I love anything to do with cattle or technology, but especially anything to do with both of them.

+<h3>What is a &OpenCurlyDoubleQuote;Milliron X&CloseCurlyDoubleQuote;?</h3>
+<h5>It's a <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Livestock_branding">cattle brand</a>, of course! My cattle brand!</h5>
+<p>
+    <span style="font-size: larger; font-weight: bolder">The milliron</span>
+    is the bar with a bend in the middle. It does not represent anything physical
+    or textual <em>per se</em>, 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.
+</p>
+<p>
+    <span style="font-size: larger; font-weight: bolder">X</span> 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.
+</p>
+<p>
+    Together, these two symbols represent the qualities I strive for in each of my works: authenticity, originality, power, depth, and prestige.
