You've hiked through Snake Canyon once before while visiting your Uncle Howard at Red Creek Ranch, but you never noticed any cave entrance. It looks as though a recent rock slide has uncovered it.

Though the late afternoon sun is striking the opening of the cave, the interior remains in total darkness. You step inside a few feet, trying to get an idea of how big it is. As your eyes become used to the dark, you see that you are not alone. Sitting on a large rock is a man wearing a white shirt, dark slacks, and black sneakers. He smiles at you and rises, extending his hand in greeting.

"Welcome to my aptly-named home page. As you can see, I've decided to do something a little different with the format. You may recognize it, especially if you grew up during the 80s and read a lot."

"So what is all of this, aside from a monument to my own vanity (and to Edward Packard)? Well, it's also a place for me to store lots of links to other web sites that I find interesting. Perhaps some of them will interest you, too."

"Now, what would you like to do first?"
