Well this question isn’t a particularly exciting day 02 article – the name of my blog is pretty obvious. :-)
The name Jethro itself has a bit of a chain of history – technically I’m named after Jethro Tull (the band) which in turn is named after Jethro Tull (The Argiculturist).
In terms of the actual name, I believe the earliest reference to a Jethro is the Christian bible – apparently I owned sheep and one of my lazy staff at the time was busy getting visions from god instead of actually doing their job and looking after the sheep.
Naturally I’ve carried on this entrepreneurship to this day, except that instead of sheep I have a lot of servers. Oh and I only worship myself ;-)
