TAB Welcomes: Tom Reestman
This is where I’m supposed to write a bunch of stuff about who I am and why you should read my articles until your eyes bleed.
You can read something about me on my author’s page, but here is much more detailed and specific information:
- I live in a house.
- The house is in a big city.
- The big city is in an even bigger state within the US.
- I have a cat.
- The cat is fat.
- I work in some sort of technical capacity with software.
- I write quite a bit for work, for fun, and now on the Apple Blog.
- Got my first Mac in ’89. There is currently an iMac, MacBook, Time Machine, Airport Express, two iPhones (original), iPod touch, and three iPods in the house.
- The cat is still fat.
- I like to work on computers and read numerous news feeds.
- Until last January I’d had at least one PC in the house for 15+ years; I know Windows quite well.
- My daughter has a fish. The fish is not fat. It’s the cat that is fat.
- My daughter has her own bedroom. It’s a wreck. Actually, I’ve seen wrecks that look better.
- I have an office. It’s spotless.
- My daughter is a good student.
- Did I mention the rather copious amounts of poundage the cat has accumulated?
Perhaps there will be more later. Honestly, though, after the way I just bared my soul to you how can you not want to come back and read my stuff again and again? I welcome, appreciate, and enjoy any and all comments on what I write.

Welcome!
And put that cat on a diet. :P
I say take the cat blindfolded into an alley, and shoot it in the back. (Why blindfold it in the first place?)
On a less serious note, hoping to see some good posts from you.
Upload pics of the cat so we can see it!
We must see the cat – perhaps it could become the official TAB mascot?!
Welcome. I’ll trade FredD for cat. Contact me regarding Allie and Ho, Ho, Ho.
