It seems these days that almost everyone has their own website. And I over the past year or three have been bombarded with offers and mailers regarding web authoring tools and free web site space and the like. So I too have given much thought to what MY website should be about...
...it seems that all of these sites are about those things for which their authors are passionate, yet I find I am passionate about nothing - at least nothing temporal...
...and I have friends among the many out there who have decided to erect their own monument on the Internet. They too are passionate about this or that - their sites will be referenced here...
...so at last it seems that I have nothing I can contribute to this arena, nothing on which I am an expert or about which I find my thoughts constantly circling. Instead I will dedicate this (free) space to the few web sites I have found that I thought were either done exceptionally well, or are about things from my past or that I enjoy, and perhaps, I might even indulge in sharing a bit about myself in the form of my limited and frustrated dabblings in the world of the arts (uh, you know, poetry and photography).
Please, enjoy this space. And as two of my good friends used to say, "Thanks for your support!"
Cordially,
Noncitizen

I just thought it would be nice to give them a plug.
And just in case you were wondering, all of the backgrounds and text-art on this site were designed by me using Microsoft® Image Composer. All of the photos were processed in Paint Shop Pro and then Image Composer.
