This is my virtual dining room table and you are invited to grab a coffee, pull up a chair and make yourselves at home. Have fun and enjoy your visit! If you're here, chances are I invited you to visit. I have two intents in generating and maintaining this site. First, this will be part nostalgia, complete with links to photo albums I've posted to flickr (yet another free site). I am doing this primarily for those of you who I didn't live among during the various periods of our lives highlighted but I hope that those of you who did reside in our communities also enjoy the albums concerning you. The second intent behind this site is to be part current events. You know how much roaming we've done in recent years. If I pointed you to this site, I value our friendship and don't want the distances that separate us to cause us to loose complete track of one another. So here is the site from which you can keep track of us. |

| Spinning
CD's
Homemade Santana Compellation featuring his collaborative works with the likes of Everclear, John Lee Hooker, Dido, Michelle Branch, Stevie Ray Vaughn, and other artists Zep. Just about all their albums keep me up! Floyd. Live 8 reawakened my appreciation for these psychedelic geniuses. Delirium. Poem Cool in a new, techno, studio engineered, sorta way. I wonder if it would translate live? |
Virtual
Photo Albums
What good would a site loaded with nostalgia be without the photos? Given, however, that I remain to cheap to pay for my own domain name, I use yet another free web hosting site. Click here
to be taken to my virtual photo album #1 of the Quaqtaq years hosted by Click here to be taken to my second virtual photo album of the Quaqtaq years. Click here to be taken to my third photo album of the Foleyet years.
Be forewarned, since I am using the cheap method for web page building, I am restricted on the amount of bandwidth I am allowed to occupy. For the time being, I am uploading photos that are already digitized. |

Recently off the Book Shelf Perfume: Patrick Suskind translated from the original German. Review: At times insightful but definitely weird! Still, I am glad I read it despite the ending ; ) The Hitch Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Douglas Adams. I swear I picked this up before I heard of the movie remake. I read it as a kid and felt like having another go at it with all the extra time on my hands. It's better now than I remember it being as a kid - and that says a great deal. Brave New World. Aldous Huxley. This title came up in a recent interview as a somewhat prophetic work that forecasted much of the social ills currently plaguing our brave, new world order. I enjoyed the interviewers perspective on the work to the point that I wanted to re-read it. Although it was a bit depressing, it was no where near as bad as Orwell's 1984, Animal Farm, etc. . . The American People: Nash, Jeffery, et al. This was a University text that I never paid much attention to and I somehow still managed to get a decent mark! Anyway, a recent conversation with an old friend made me want to reconsider American History and this was free and handy. I must say, I'm enjoying it immensely without the prejudiced prof expounding his US centric world view. |
Other Stuff My Online Portfolio. Information for those of you how are interested in the paths my career is taking.
Links.
If you are bored, and the thought of wasting hours of your time looking
through the net at pictures of people on
Blog. Yup. I'm delving into the world of blog too. Don't ask me why. I haven't figured it's reason d'etre just yet. As you see, the link is not yet active because I'm still monkeying around with it; trying to give it a viable life of its own that is seperate from this site. Right now, I haven't made it public because it overlaps what I have here a bit too much. Anyway, watch for it. -g
