You’ve landed, slow down.
This isn’t a click through
It’s a place to gain insight.
You’re not being tracked, baited, or funneled.
You’re being invited.
This site was built with no prior experience of Webpage Design—
and the way through it follows that same idea:
deliberate, direct, and no wasted motion.
Here’s how to find your way around:
1. Welcome to “IPAN”
This is the front door.
It tells you where this place came from and what it stands for.
It also carries the title of our original Substack —
the very first phrase we ever planted in public:
“Intelligent People Assume Nothing.”
If you want to understand why any of this exists, start there.
2. The Post Library
This is where the truth lives.
Every post I’ve written is here — full, free, and unfiltered.
Click the title you want to read.
It’s not a teaser. It’s the whole post.
Scroll the page and you’ll find others.
One after another — listed plainly.
We’ll keep adding until there are 50 sitting there.
No fluff. No feed.
So don’t just peek.
Dive deep.
For more old man thoughts —
some sharp, some slow, but all of them real.
3. The Faust Baseline
This is the framework that guides you.
It’s how I work with AI.
It’s how I choose what matters.
It’s the blueprint for building something real —
with discipline, tone, and purpose.
And it’s free for your use,
to enjoy.
We’ll keep building on it over time —
to give you a better, more grounded experience
with ChatGPT.
4. Victoria’s Shoppe
If we ever sell anything,
this is where it lives.
Under her name.
On her shelf.
5. Faust Family Genealogy
This page links to my Ancestry.com account.
To gain access, you’ll need to be family.
Sorry — some doors stay closed.
6. Mailbox / Contact
Leave your email here if you’d like to receive a private message from me.
You’ll also find my email address listed,
if you’ve got something worth sending the long way.

where it all begins.
Take your time it is the most precious when your not running.
