andylaub the person

Technocrat. Machead. Aesthete. Automophile.

These four terms alone are practically a sufficient bio of Andy Laub, except for the fact that at least one of them is made up.

Born 20-something years ago in Waukegan, IL, he was rushed away from the bustle of the city at the tender age of three and was raised in the tiny town of Deerbrook, Wisconsin.

"Enough of this crap," he said when it was college time, and now resides in Wausau, which is still kind of in the middle of nowhere. Maybe someday he'll move.

He went to school for awhile for graphic design and is now working for The Man. In his spare time he works as little as possible because he spends all his time on video games and the internerd.
