Hello and welcome to my corner of the internet!
I’m Marc Kick. A little about myself: I’m a husband & a father of four, an avid professional sports fan, prowrestling fan, Trekkie, a podcaster and (obviously) a blogger — among many other things!
This site was originally created to be an easy way for me to put out my thoughts on a number of various topics — mostly listed above. MarcsTwoCents.com was originally launched in July of 2013(!), but with the recent pandemic & me being furloughed from work, I had to take down the other site as the domain hosting became a frivolous expense that I just couldn’t justify for now.
So here we are in December of 2020 and after being a customer of 1&1 Internet (now known as IONOS) for well over a decade since Star Trek Online got me back into website developing. I then created sites to advertise our in-game Fleets (Starfleet’s Elite & later, Battle Fleet Olympus), the hosting company decided that instead of working with me to keep a long-term & loyal customer who had registered 4 domains with them, they felt it was more important to upgrade my contract and overall cost per year to a point where it was no longer feasible for me to continue to do business with them. So I’ve moved all the old content over here to WordPress, but I’m not bitter…just disappointed in their customer retention skills.
But enough with all that. MarcsTwoCents is my home where I share (as I put it) “My Thoughts On All Things Marc-centric”. As you peruse my site here, I hope you’ll appreciate what I feel has been the best outcome of this site: the improvement of the quality of my writing abilities! This site has really become an excellent outlet for me to put my thoughts out there for others to read. Whether it’s been reviewing a wrestling pay per view, reacting to the end of the latest season of my favorite sports teams, or writing a career retrospective or tribute of someone I respected or enjoyed watching over the years who are either retired or no longer with us. I’ve had a blast writing here and look forward to continuing to add more content for you all to read in the future.
Thanks for visiting & I hope you’ll return!
🖖 LL&P
