Well, today was a good day for painting! Each Wednesday me and my friend Mark paint together to break away from our lagging artistic enthusiasm. Here we see the painting we did, or the one that I did. I started around 1 pm, and finished around 6…with several interruptions of course. Anyway, its a 9″x12″ [...]

Another step in technology connections
Connecting the world…well, the world of blogs, emails, and social interaction sites!

Suddenly I thought ” Why don’t I have The Mad Hatter attacking Alice [...]
