After a period of inactivity and procrastination (so typical of myself... *sigh*), I've resumed updating the site at a leisurely pace. If you look at the bottom of the navbar, you'll notice the "Other Hobbies" section. It's inactive at the moment, but I generally plan on putting some stuff there in the next few days.

Jefferson fans will be pleased (shocked?) to learn that I have accidentally stumbled across a treasure trove of Jefferson 3D models. They don't look too impressive by today's graphics standards, but the nostalgia factor is always there. Check it out! (look for 3D models labeled "Unannounced Project")

My Rebirth campaign is going well. We have reached the campaign's turning point, where all characters (past and present) died in order to fulfill the Rebirth prophecy. Their souls are now wandering the Lower Planes, trying to survive long enough to find their way out unharmed (but not unchanged). Check the Campaign Portal periodically for updates.

As some of you may know, I used to work as a webmaster a long time ago, during my stay at the University of Tennessee, Martin. I was vehemently opposed to WYSWYG web page editors, instead preferring to manually code all pages. So, what's a person like me doing here on Google Pages, making a site through the simplistic online interface? 

Short answer: I'm having fun. 

In fact, I haven't had this much fun designing a web site in ages. Despite my suspicions that this is just the next step in Google's plans for World Domination (TM), I couldn't resist giving it a try. And now I'm hooked.

Designing a simple, yet attractive, web page has never been easier. Sure, there are limitations, such as not being able to define stylesheets or actualy use tables, but I don't really care. I got this site up and running in about two hours. Previously, it would take me that long just to decide what type of font I want to use. Now that Google's made that decision for me (by offering a set of page templates), I can concentrate on actual site content. 

Expect a lot of minor and major changes to the site's layout and structure during the next couple of weeks, as I intend to experiment a bit. Additionally, Google Pages is in Beta stage, so I expect that they'll be introducing new features all the time. I'll try to keep the site changelog updated as much as possible.

If you wish to contact me, my e-mail address is the same as this site's subdomain, @gmail.com. Figure it out.
