Stuff I Do

TOP LEFT: Be a Dad. Times 3. Logan, Michaela, and Madison.

TOP RIGHT: Give hugs and kisses. Michaela likes them along with her pacifier.

LEFT: Teach. Chemistry and physics. Elkhart Central High School. A little liquid nitrogen in boiling water keeps the class awake.

RIGHT: Fly. It's fun and expensive (two requirements for my hobbies). Summer of 2003 after taking a friend flying.

BOTTOM LEFT: Take pictures...photography. I took this on a nearly-deserted island off the coast of Costa Rica.

BELOW: Photograph trains. Watch trains. Cajon Pass, CA, 1987.

BOTTOM RIGHT: Ham radio. I caught the bug early at age 3.

Links

Back when the web first become popular, it used to be hip to make a personal web page and post as many cool links as you could.  The more links, the "better" your site was.  Having a web page was still a novelty, and anybody's page was "cool" and worth linking to.  I remember making a link to the NBC television network, because it was "cool" and had their TV schedule on it.  Big deal.  Back before all the search engines even existed, you had to list thousands of links, otherwise nobody knew what cool stuff was out there.  Now, just do a search, or use that brain of yours and try something logical like http://www.nbc.com.  Duh!  So I spent hundreds of hours adding links, checking them to keep them current etc.  Big waste of time!  After three years of spending my time getting paid to design other people's web pages and ignoring my own, I wasn't surprised when a link check showed 80% of my links failed.  I was contemplating just getting rid of the links, but I kept getting e-mails saying "Cool site-love the links."  So here are my useful links.  No-brainers like NBC are forever relegated to the search engines; these are the ones I have bookmarked, I just dumped them into pages grouped by category.  Enjoy!
