Let me tell you a story 'bout a site called Hanttula.com

    Back in the dark ages of 1995 a boy had a dream of writing the Great American Novel.
    He soon discovered that he couldn't write... for that matter he could barely read. He heard tell of a little burgeoning idea called the "World Wide Web" and that it was something people surfed. He liked surfing so thought this could be good for him. Little did he know that it involved computers & typing & more of those dreadful words responsible for his dashed dreams of an authorial life. What's worse, it involved technology; something that terrified this boy to the core of his being.
    Undauntable, the boy aimed to start his adventures on this World Wide Web, only to have the feared technology rear its ferociously spiteful head in the form of a broken "W" key on his keyboard. Unable to type the ever-important "www," it seemed that the boy would never be able to visit one of these fabled "websites." Things were not looking good for our hero... he became crestfallen.
    Well, eventually, he learned that keyboards could be fixed & he typed that "www" along with other words and discovered the vast expanse of the Internet & all that it had to offer. So enamored with what he saw on his computer screen, he felt he too must contribute to this Internet (since he had been selfishly enjoying the efforts of others without paying a dime). That is when lightning struck, the clouds parted, and Providence spake (as Providence is apt to do) directly to our young hero:

"ARRR! GO FORTH, YOUNG MATEY, AND BUILD YE ONLINE ENTERTAINMENTS, THE LIKES OF WHICH THY SCURVY MORTALS HAVE NAY BUT SEEN."

    You can imagine the surprise & shock to this young boy, who instantly set upon a new life path and made appropriate changes to his "to do" list:

To-Do List
  1. Buy Milk
  2. Buy Cheese
  3. Find out what's making that tapping sound in the wall
  4. Write the Great American Novel
    Make the Great American Website

Thus, the light & glory that has become Hanttula.com began.
