Finally the website is back up! The company that was hosing my site seems to have gone out of business! I got the name transferred but I don’t have access to any of my old content. I am not happy about it, but life goes on.

I will update this more in the future. I hope people are still reading the site!

Another year has flown by but it has been quite an exciting one.  In the last year I have gotten married, moved started work for another company, and totally changed my job.

It has been a very interesting and exciting year for sure!

Now I really have my phone set up cool!  I have a local New Jersey number setup that rings my normal phone and I don’t pay anything for it!  I am doing it using Google’s GrandCentral service.  www.grandcentral.com  Also I can call anyone in the US for free, but I must start the call by clicking a button on the website.  If anyone wants to try this out it is by invitation only.  Write me and I will send you an invitation.

And if anyone wants to call of course…write me and I can send you the number.  I have the phone to switch off at night time so there is no risk of waking me up.
