#introductions

Hello all! I'm Adam. You may know me as Adman65 on twitter or from my old ruby blog at http://hawkins.io. I'm still an active member of Ruby community, and more importantly I just love Ruby. It's still my favorite programming language and I'm happy to be around other Ruby enthusiasts. Thank you @james for setting this up.
