Original Welcome Message


 Hi, thanks for stopping by. I see you found the place okay. Come in, take off your jacket and stay awhile. You're welcome to look around, make yourself at home.

Please excuse the mess, I'm in the process of moving in. It might take a while but I think I've got everything I need in here somewhere. It's just a matter of sorting through all the chaos.

 Well, it has been a long trip here and I've got a lot of work left to do. You can borrow my skate board if you like and skate around the net while I finish up here. My guitar is over in the corner if it starts raining.

The first thing to do is to unpack my stereo... nothing makes work easier than Chili Pepper's in the air.

Thank you for your patience, and as always all comments and suggestions are welcome. And if you haven't yet, please sign the guest book in my guest room.

If you can't find what you are looking for just ask.

Brief Update:

A new name, upgrades, renovations, new technologies, online resumes, and better organization are all part of this last years worth of work to this set of web pages.
A BS. Degree in Mathematics from FSC, searching for a Job, and online chess are the highlights of my summer.
Want more info...just e-mail me. For now, I'm busy sprucing up the technical side of the site.

Another year through, time to start updating my page once again. Although changes may not be seen, I am working on stuff, but I want to make sure it's the way I like it before I make it avaliable for the world to see. For me, 1997 was a crazy and eventful year which includes three colleges, fishing in Alaska, starting a homepage, taking trips to Boston, New Orleans, Anchorage, Fairbanks, Toledo, and Columbus, and getting the chance to see some old friends I haven't seen in years, including Chris Lowe, Marc Burno, Dan Menglekamp, and Diane Ditton.

Okay, so I'm in Fairmont, West Virginia once again...another year of school, and fall in the tri-city area (Fairmont, Clarksburg, and Morgantown.) I'm going to school at West Virginia University now... studying physics. Still trying to get settled in to the new school...

I've updated some of my links and I'm going to work on getting my page to be a GeoCities featured page. I'll keep you posted.

Oh, I also added a few pics I drew years ago.

Well, I'm back in Alaska. I've had a chance to update some of the graphics in the last few days. Also have just finished updating the guest book. It will be interesting to see if anybody signs it again...Lpage messed up my old guestbook...they keep saying they will be retreiving the old guestbook info, but it's been almost a month now and no luck yet.

I've got a little more graphic work to do, then it's back to adding substance. :) I've got a couple good ideas, but it will take a while...still have to work on the garage, my Ariel page and my Chili Pepper page. So much to do. Wish me luck.

So, I'm in the process of adding graphics...some things have worked, some things have not. It's a learning experience. :) I've gotten a lot of positive feed back. Please keep it coming. Let me know how the pictures and backgrounds look on your system. Like I said, I'm using LYNX so I don't see the results unless I go to the library at school.

Well, I guess the background doesn't work, if it does, please let me know. Those photos haven't been scanned yet either, so please bear with me. I haven't been able to work on this much lately, kind of been overloaded with school.

Other than that, my latest adventures have taken me on a 2000 mile round trip to New Olreans for the last 4 days of my spring break. Visited a friend who I hadn't seen in about 2 years. Had a GREAT time. I encourage all who have never been to make the trip. The French Quarter is crazy, day and night. At one point I turned and yelled up the street "I'M LOSING MY VOICE!" A second later some cute chick turned to me and yelled "SO AM I, WE ALL ARE!" Bands on every corner and in every bar, smiles on just about everyone, one big non-stop party.

Historically, an amazing city as well. Not to mention strangely eerie and mysterious for those of us who have read Anne Rice's Vampire Chronicles.

I've added a background, and I don't know how it's going to work. If it looks goofy, or doesn't work at all, let me know.

I'm getting some home picutres scanned in the next couple days. Those should be up soon. I think they will be worth checking out, but I ask for your continued patience. Unfortunately school and work are a little higher on the priority list right now and it's hard to find the time for interior decorating.
