Well here it is, the culmination
of months of learning something totally new to me, web site design. I
have never went to school for such a short time to learn so much.
The course is over, but I will be tweaking this site over time, so please
return if you enjoyed your visit. It was indeed a very intense six months.
And I am not that proficient at web design, but I hope to get better.
On this page you can see various project examples of Flash, Illustrator
and Photoshop. The link to my on-line resume is also here, and another
link to the interest and hobby sites. If you are interested in this type
of course you can visit the school's website at www.tsb.ca.

Cool pic! Who would ever think that a rock group from the late '60s would develop a strong connection to one of the space shuttle flights? - and, unfortunately, one of the tragic flights. Find out what the Space Shuttle
program and Deep
Purple
have in common...story
Usually I say, "Let's get some beer!" But back in the '60s someone said,
"Let's send some people to the moon!" I don't even like going for milk!
These guys had to go one-quarter of a million miles for some rocks!
This section has astronaut bios and mission details of the Mercury,
Gemini and Apollo programs.

 Whitesnake
The Big C is back on tour
having just celebrated his 50th birthday. We went down to the concert
in Toronto in March, 2003. We have a few pics and a bit of a write-up...here...
 Ancient
History
You think your boss is nasty! Get
a load of this guy. Nero is not only blamed for the burning of Rome (which
is not proven) he did in fact have his sister and mother killed! Sad
story here...
Purple's
CDs returned
A strange twist to an interesting tale. An astronaut takes Deep Purple
music up on the space shuttle - the shuttle disintegrates on its return
to earth - NASA returns what is left of the CDs to the group after a concert
in Mexico. For a little background information click

read about the return of the CDs click

Initially, I didn't even know astronauts took music on their flights - on a regular basis that is. I knew that early pioneering astronauts did - Apollo missions regularly included some of the spacefarers' favourites tunes. But apparently, each space shuttle mission may carry along as many as 20 or 30 CDs.
So we can assume that the astronauts of the Space Shuttle Challenger
disaster of 1986 also carried music with them - but I never heard a story
like this - what was left of the CDs being returned to the actual group
or groups.
