Hi, my name is Gary and welcome to my web site. Web design has always been intriguing to me so I decided to take a stab at it myself. The theme of the site will be all about me and my relatives. I plan on keeping it up-to-date by posting current events and photos. I am using this site as a learning experience, so bear with me as it grows into something for me to be proud of. I am always looking for ways to improve things. If you have any questions or comments please contact me.

Thank you for visiting my web site. "My name is Gary, and one day I'll be buried."

The Holiday'sDecember 30, 2007 

This year's holiday season went by so fast, or so it seems. We did all the usual stuff but we did miss dad. Greg was able to be here with us though. Oh, and there was quite a bit of snow. I did a lot of shoveling! I didn't indulge too much on food. In fact I lost some weight. I currently weight about 132 pounds. The next big thing coming up is tax season. Dad always took care of that kind of stuff and now it's all up to mom and I.

A Few New PhotosSeptember 12, 2007 

I decided it was time to update the site and add some new photos. Also, I came across the following quote on the internet that perfectly describes me during my depression phases.

"It's wrong to talk. Talking means you have something to say. I have nothing to say. I am nobody, a nothing."

A Personal UpdateSeptember 5, 2007 

Since winter I have lost about 90 pounds. I currently weigh 145. I watch what I eat and exercise on the treadmill twice a day. I look and feel younger and more energetic. The best part is that I get to go buy some new clothes that fit me!

I Changed My Hair ColorJuly 20, 2007

Spring has sprung, Fall has fell, Winter is here, and it's colder than usual. Try not to eat too much on Thanksgiving. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

I'm BackOctober 1, 2005 

I haven't updated with this site in a while, so I decided it was time to do so. It's a real challenge to make a web site that looks the same on all browsers and operating systems. I think it's giving me dainbramage!

Happy Birthday!August 15, 2005 

Today is my 41st birthday and a new computer is on my wish list. I got myself a new Mac and that was just what I needed. Mac's are for productivity. Windows is for solitaire.

New Web Site EstablishedFebruary 6, 2005 

Finally, my own web site. Now I get to be a webmaster. Isn't that special. I created it with my own computer using nothing but a simple text editor and a free graphics program I downloaded.
