On the other hand,
I've done a lot more
too. And so you can
stroll through the
thicket of my mind
through the links
below. There are over
250 pages on this
website, and so that
should keep you busy
for a while. Pick a
category and who
knows what you'll
find. Well, I do. :)
Clicking on this logo will always get
you back to either the index or the
site map, which has all the sections.
The stars and stripes are nice, but
most Americans would agree with the
clear sentiment on the flag to the left.
This is me in Copala, Mexico, in one of the coolest photos I have of me.
I would have got here a little sooner, but my ride was slow.
See My New Blog -- The Daily Mush -- a look at one or two articles a day in my local paper
Projects I'm working on:
1. The Daily Mush
2. Writing up my memories of Mazatlan.
3. Writing up my memories of Europe.
4. A trip to Lincoln Nebraska to make a presentation
about the Czechs & Slovaks of Louisiana
at the University of Nebraska conference on
Czechs & Slovaks of America.
5. A presentation to the Louisiana Folklore
Conference on Czechs & Slovaks here.
6. A trip to NYC for my birthday and a family
gathering.
7. Resuscitating the garden decimated by the
longest spell of cold weather in centuries.
And in general having a blast.
This is me in New Orleans, at the C-Note Lounge, where I
was the bartender and piano player from January to August
2001. Can I get you a beer to celebrate the Saints?.
