HomeWelcome to this ever-growing collection of things both silly and serious I feel a need to show and say to you. Explore at will till you find something you like or don't. If you missed it, here's the first place I offer you a dollar.
Who I am, and why this Web site is I'm a 63-year old science student located somewhere within striking distance of you. My hobbies include echolalia, grump-baiting, frottage and echolalia, and I'm the emergency backup president of France. Catchphrase: "My only flaw is modesty." But none of that matters. What matters is that the purpose of this Web site is to entertain or engage or maybe even momentarily entrance you one way or another, no matter how hard I have to try. After reading how easy it is to navigate this site, at right, you might want to see what else is on this Home page, then branch off into whatever interests you. If I'm doing this right you can't go wrong.

Guestbook The guestbook has turned out to be more interesting than I would have thought when I instituted it in late 1996. To be sure, some of the entries are banal and some are inscrutable. Some are complimentary and some are, well, not. And a few are worth reading. Update of November 9, 2006: I've instituted a whole new version of the guestbook, but the old one is still available. You can read the old guestbook and the new one, and make your own entry if you like, from here. Update of November 2011: The guestbook is no longer accepting new entries, but all the entries till then are still there.
FUN FACT: Did you know that the suits featured on playing cards at casinos actually represent different classes in French society of days gone by: Spades are royalty, hearts are clergy, diamonds are merchants, and clubs are peasants.

How
to navigate This Web site consists of only four
main pages,
with branches from them. Some
of the branches have twigs, and some of them have twiglets, and some of them intertwine, and they all count. I
recommend you click pretty much everything in site, although if you try to experience all
of it you'll be here quite awhile, so if you want to set a bookmark, this is where to. At the top and bottom of every page is a navigation
bar to those four main pages. Go here (or click the
? at the top
left of any page) to learn everything there is to know about navigating this site, including how to
search this site and see the site map. Tip: If you aren't enjoying yourself and
relaxing here, you aren't doing it right. Long articles Most of the pages on this Web site are fairly short, such as so many of the ones listed on the Fun Pix page. But over the years I have taken on a few projects that I've published to the Web, long articles involving dozens of hours in some cases and many hundreds in others. Below is a list of some of those projects.

● Microsoft FSX

Habitat for Humanity How-To Articles The information here, about a hundred pages altogether, took me about 1,500 hours to create. Each page is designed to be perfectly viewable online and perfectly printable to paper.
● States north of Canada This one long page with its many outside links has taken me maybe a hundred hours so far to create, and it contains useful information, including a mathematically perfect (and free) spreadsheet that converts various distances, even if you don't care that it also pretty much makes me the world's foremost expert on the subject.
