Portfolio Description

Hey! My name is,

Cody

I’ll spend at least 1 hour a day consuming news online. I refresh /news top level section habitually. I like /news page because it loads faster, and has less of what I don’t want. I can also see what is the latest news or articles that I might have missed by clicking the “Load More” button.

I check in on High School news from my home town. Most of the folks around here are around my age and are starting families and having kids, some have kids as old at 17 now.

Stimulus Check information has been at the forefront of my news consumption lately. I follow politics and have a point of view. I’m into Problem Solving.. what do you do when… how to deal with… as well as local investigations, crime, and unusual stories.

I shoot for 3 checkin’s throughout the day (whenever my day starts – this varies from day to day) Once in the morning, Once around 12 noon, and once in the Evening. I’m around 30-80 events per day.

I feel like I get good exercise every week. I don’t like listening to podcasts while exercising. Exercise is how I relieve stress. I’m into cardio and combinations, and I can easily run a mile. I’m not interested at all in my favorite athletes political views and opinions.

I’m into Action and Comedy movies, and I wish Seinfeld and Cheers were still on today. My favorite Star Trek character is Spock.

I’ll take an American Classic Car over a Tesla any day. I still miss my first car, and I’ve apologized to my car after hitting huge potholes. I’d rather spend money on a house though.

My favorite food are Tacos. In summertime I’m eating burgers and corn on the Cobb and pumpkin pie. I’ll take wheat bread over white, and prefer chicken fingers over nuggets. My goto wake-me-up drink is cold soda or tea. I rarely drink wine.

When I buy high end clothes I make sure it’s from someplace that has a good return policy. Fashion trends have little to no impact on what I wear. I rarely wear a tie, maybe every few months.

Sometimes I’ll go round the clock

Lunchtime Check-In & Share

I’m revisiting stories I’ve looked at earlier and sharing them through email. I double check I got the right/most up-to-date one by going back to the home page and clicking on it again. I typically do this before I share any story.

I have limited time at lunch. Mainly headline surfing refreshing the home page a couple times, and revisiting what I read earlier to see if there are any changes.
