Well, until I come up with something really cool to do with it, this is just my personal web site.

I realized that it was time for me to have a professional looking web site, even if some of the content is tongue-in-cheek and risqué. (Life is often uncensored, so why can't I be?) I was tired of the lengthy url that you get when you host at an isp. "members.crappyisp.com/chump/thebluephoenix/" is a fair example. So I came up with a name, grabbed the domain, signed up for hosting, and, well, you’re looking at the result.

The phoenix is a legendary bird that burned itself to ashes on a pyre, and rose from the ashes to live again. I feel that at times we are just like the legendary phoenix. We’ve all had painful and heart breaking experiences in our lives where we feel like we’ve crashed & burned and hit rock bottom. But like the phoenix, we rise, and we go on with our lives stronger and wiser than before.

I’ve read that the blue part of a flame is the hottest part. Therefore, a blue phoenix burns hotter and stronger than your average, run-of-the-mill phoenix.

My name is Chris Cosentino and I live in a northern suburb of Atlanta Georgia.

I currently work as a programmer & web developer at a conference, event, and association management company called Meeting Expectations.

I built this site using Photoshop, ImageReady, Visual Studio, Active Server Pages (ASP), VBscript, JavaScript, and StyleSheets (CSS).
