Good day!

It would seem this is the place for introductions. I am Allen Stenhaus, owner of Stenhaus.net (currently directed at my YouTube channel). I've been dabbling with YouTube stuff for four years now, and I've decided I'm going to start mixing things up. I cut back on my gaming time for a few short years after having children, but I'm realizing I'm just a much happier person when I allow myself to have fun. So, I've been getting back into it in the last year or so.

I've been really enjoying a lot of speedrunning videos I have seen, and it amuses me how easy some of the experts make games look. I'm especially enjoying the old school speed-runs, likely because I'm in my mid-30's and have many fond memories of these older games.

Anyhow, that's me in a nutshell. I'm thinking of trying a little speed-running. I doubt I would have the time or energy to devote to setting records, and as a very anxious person, I would likely let nerves get the better of me in the end. Still, I love competing, especially with myself (which is probably why I like disc golf). I want to revisit many games I enjoyed some time ago, and many others I've always wanted to get better at. For example, I've never gotten a Flawless Victory in Contra on the NES (I've come SOOO close), and that's one of the many things I want to do.

On the plus side, I'm quickly finding a lot of people who may enjoy watching me try to meet these goals, so I might as well make myself known.

So, in the words of Jubal Early "Well... here I am."
