My world, and welcome to it.

You may have noticed a couple of changes if you've been here before. Notably, I've given over completely to the realization that the Dr. Seuss pages are why people visit my site, and that my personal pages, exciting as they are, are only an afterthought to most people. C'est la web.

These are my pages. They're text-oriented, but not exclusively so, because I like it that way. They're also text-oriented because graphics take a long time to load and frankly, most people I know would rather not wait for an irrelevant picture to load, when they could be looking at content.

With web pages, content should drive art. If the art is the content, that's a different matter, but in most cases it's not. David Seigel wrote a book called Creating Killer Web Sites, which has about a zillion pages on how to work with Photoshop to get the images on your web site absolutely correct, but almost zero on what to put on your web site. I'm just saying no to extraneous graphics and images.

But enough of my ranting. These are my pages, and here's what's on them.

  1. The Dr. Seuss Web Page. These pages get updated more than any others.
  2. Some writings by others I've liked. Not a complete list.
  3. Some links to other pages that I've found interesting. Your milage may vary.
  4. My resume.
  5. If you really want some personal facts, feel free. But I'm not going to tell you that much.
  6. Some things I've written. I used to keep this hidden away, but then I thought, wotthell.
  7. Disfunctional Family Feud. Like the original, but slightly different questions. Survey 4 results up! Survey 5 now available!
  8. My attempts at photography. Have a look. Let me know.
  9. A few Magic: The Gathering oriented items. This is a game that I used to be addicted to, and now only play on an occasional basis. I still, however, enjoy the game and the strategy involved, so I remain involved.
  10. Newish! The Stick Figure Tarot (work in progress). I did this a while ago, and I'm finally putting it online. I think it's cool, anyway.
  11. Newest! My Compilation Albums. Some of the collection CD's I've created for my personal use, posted because I was bored.

I said before that this page doesn't change much, and I wasn't lying. Mostly I just include new things as my fancy is struck, and occasionally get carried away and more or less start over from scratch. It helps me understand why some of the most boring pages are those of people who work with HTML all day long.


But I digress. What's really important is the great scientific debate that's going on right now.

Dihydrogen Monoxide or Hydrogen Hydroxide?

Threat or just misunderstood?

Both sites make perfectly reasonable arguements about this issue, which does affect you, whether you know it or not. You owe it to yourself to check it out.
