The rest was learning from books which worked very well. Tack on cfunited and you learn more about coldfusion than you would in any Computer Science Curriculum I've seen. I'm a DJ as well but don't see how a lot of music theory helps me, so I'm glad I didn't go that route. If the Internet was kickin it in 92' I might have gone that route starting out. A few years in call center management, where I started writing SQL got me more interested in programming, down hill ever since. Well, down hill if you call working for myself thing, out of my house... I do miss Corporate life at times. Keeping your snowboard in your office with those pow wow sessions before work were a plus at Stratton Mtn Resort, I absolutely don't miss the meetings though. My resume is great on experience but I didn't even get a call when I applied for a Skidmore College position a couple years back. That was odd but then again, I don't have a degree.
