About

Well, well, well, look who we have here! It's George Self, the one-man show behind this website. He's the creator, author, generator, custodian, and even the coroner! Let's hope he doesn't have to use that last title too often. This blog is not just a collection of embarrassing personal anecdotes (although there might be a few that make you cringe). It's more like a treasure hunt for timeless wisdom that even your great-great-grandma would approve of. Whether you're looking for a chuckle, a mind-boggling revelation, or just a reminder that everyone else is just as lost as you are, I hope these nonsensical musings provide some value. Alrighty, grab yourself a cup of Joe (make sure it's potent enough to handle my ramblings), plop down in your comfiest seat, and let's take a wild ride together. Hold on tight, folks! We're in for a wild ride. But don't worry, I've got a good sense of humor and a sturdy seatbelt. Let's hope they're enough to keep us from flying off the rails. Cheers!

Ah, the profile. The moment where we try to make ourselves sound like the most interesting person in the world, while also trying to hide the fact that we spend most of our time binge-watching Netflix. George may be pushing 70, but he's not ready to retire to a life of bingo and shuffleboard just yet. That's why he's calling this blog "70 Candles" - because he's not quite ready to light the 71st just yet. And while he may not be working as hard as he did in his younger years, he's still putting in enough effort to make his grandkids proud. He's a part-time tour guide, full-time Amtrak enthusiast. When he's not busy saving the world from computer crashes, he likes to dabble in the ancient art of college teaching. He loves nothing more than scaring the pants off unsuspecting tourists with his spooky tales.
