Thank you one and all for helping me to relaunch The Tree at it's new location!! You now have the option of turning on or off the title music; the video and photo pages should now work; and additional content including job search and speaking engagement information (yes, no rest for the weary...) has been added. I welcome comments and critiques of the site and it's components/branches.
Recently I added (View or hide items by clicking here)
Information on my experiences as a Paraprofessional. What *is* a Paraprofessional, anyway?
Information concerning our Honorary National President. Key questions and some answers!
An opportunity for Lone Boy Scouts to attend the Centennial National Scout Jamboree (updated)!!
Information in response to questions about my status as a "Kentucky Colonel".
I added this information because the Boy Scouts of America's home page does not immediately show this information and particularily during the fall and spring, many families contact me to ask me "can my son join the Scouts if he's in the first grade?" (yes) and "can my daughter be a Scout?" (Girl Scout, sure; Boy Scout, nope -- sorry!).
I added information about both of my former wives to the site; several people following me on Facebook and MySpace wanted to know about them (especially Scouters who knew either or both of them). Jess Krall has her recipe and travel information as part of her personal website
The migration of content is about 95 percent complete; by May 2012 you should see a separation of content previously found on the "temporary" Tree and content I had to remove from America Online (AOL) because they discontinued their free webpages. Information concerning my availability to deliver speeches and present workshop topics has returned along with a link to my calendar.
Welcome to my website!
Welcome to my new home on the Internet! I am really glad that you have found this small place of mine. I hope that you make yourself at home, explore around and hopefully find content of interest to you and yours!
This marks the 17th year of the Coffeeweb, which started out as a "make a home page introducing yourself" post-graduate class assignment in the spring of 1993. I later posted those four pages to America Online™ so people could find out a bit more about me and my life.
Since those early days, this site has grown and matured - like my kids. This is version 5.0.
More than
people have viewed this content since Feburary 1995, when this counter was started.
You will find here most of the same content which was on the previous sites; much of it has been updated, spell-checked (*smiling*) and with fresher graphics.
You will also find here audio and video pieces but unfortunately I have removed most of the photos, opting to place them in locations whereby only personal friends and family can gain access from. Post me and if you need access, I'll tell you how to get to them.
Many of my short stories, chapters from various books, articles written for various publications, and freewrites are found at Gather (that is, until they too decide to go out of business at which time I will once again scrurry and put them all back here again). There is some written content at other locations - check the list on the right please.
I am being dragged into Web 2.0 kicking and screaming -- I just don't see myself right now with time to spend on MySpace™, FaceBook™ and Twitter™ all of the time. I do, however, have a page with some content on MySpace™ and Facebook™ and am learning how to use Twitter™ and other Web2.0 tools. I even have a blog to answer Scouting and military-related questions as well as to mirror some of the content from the 2010 Centennial National Scout Jamboree. The best way to provide feedback is by clicking on the graphic and sending me an email right now. Enjoy :)
