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.

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.
