Thoughts for the day; from "A Cowboy's Guide to Life" by Texas Bix Bender:
Don't worry about biting off more than you can chew. Your mouth is probably a whole lot bigger 'n you think.
If you get to thinkin' you're a person of some influence, try orderin' somebody else's dog around.

What follows is some fun I've had exploring the web, spiced with some personal philosophy; hope you enjoy it.

Don’t gamble with the Future. The quickest way to double your money is to fold it over and put it back in your pocket.

Since a heart attack and angioplasty on Dec 5, 1993 I've tried to plan and spend at least a three day mini-vacation every month with wife and family. The diet and exercise.....what can I say?

Don't travel without finding out the local Sports Schedule. This site gives schedules of NFL, NBA, Baseball, Soccer and more of all major league teams.

My local on-ramp to the information highway is CenturyTel.

My appreciation goes out to the folks at NCSA for Netscape Navigator and the easy-to-understand documentation "A Beginner’s Guide to HTML" without which I probably wouldn’t have had the courage to attempt my own web page. NCSA (at UIUC) Beginner's Guide to HTML
