This is my personal web site. I have - and plan - no other.
My mission here is to share with you my ways of seeing: whimsical, fun, and sometimes serious, but always with whimsy, for healthy perspective.
I enjoy writing tongue-in-cheek, and I leave it to you to discover what on this site is tongue-in-cheek.
Dogs in particular are a large part of my life. I hold the same values for them as I do for any other living creature.
I have a life-long passion for communication, whether with animals or humans.
I believe in paying attention to what life is all about: living to the best of our capabilities.
Finally I managed to reach a layout I'm happy with for the time being.
Of course, I keep changing it. I suppose that means I like to fine-tune things.
All pages are still very much subject to change, both in layout, and for fine-tuning of various kinds. I have a number of almost-empty pages up, to hold their places in the structure I plan to fill out.
I've decided to present an accolade for a visitor who finds a tiny detail one wouldn't necessarily think of or notice that is somehow a bit strange, or off, on this page.
It's not related to coding a web site, but to something quite different.
You may leave me a comment, or send email by clicking on my name at the bottom of the page, to tell me what you think earns the Accolade.
The Accolade has no financial value at all; it's one of those silly medals I like to present on these pages.
Kathy Johns of Reading, England has earned the Accolade!
Who will be next?
I have more Hilarious Errors that reflect my Disorientation to amuse the Brave, the Curious, and the Nosey, and to demonstrate my errors in case Web Helpers are able to tip me off about what's wrong.
However, you might not see the errors unless you're using a resolution of 800x600 on your monitor. Then again, you might!
My errors are subject to unpredictable fixing.
Friends are suggesting I open the site, and I think I will do that. Visitors can drop me all kinds of clues and find mistakes I can't see.
Because for now I'm reasonably happy with most of the layout, I plan to open the site soon. In the next little while, your visits and my checks are trial runs. You could help me work out the bugs, by reporting anything strange - well, anything that you perceive as an error, in contrast to any strangeness that's normal for me.
Please browse around as you like. When you do find errors, I'd be pleased if you'd leave me a Comment pointing them out.
Many thanks to all who have helped so far; you are numerous! And I'll be grateful for more help along the way.
I hope you enjoy your visits.
The Guestbook is in good working order, though I'm considering whether I can dress up the display a bit. So far, I haven't figured out how, and the display is sort of passable, at least.
So I'd be delighted if you would care to sign the Guestbook
Eventually, you will find Old Stuff mixed with new on the Runoff page
