Cryptic Crystal Ball

Magicman's Adventure For All

Welcome all to the Cryptic Crystal Ball!

I love exotic birds. I have none at the moment, but I was very involved with them in the past. Click on the picture of Bart the Cockatiel to visit the pages of my dear friend Connie. She has five wonderful birds,as well as some poodles, and I know you'll love seeing them, as well as the other interesting things there. Connie is a dear friend, she has helped me more than I can ever repay her for. True friends who will stand by you through anything are hard to find.

We have three beautiful Keeshonden named Misty, Keesha, and Claire. They are loving and adorable dogs, and part of the family. For more on Keeshonds you can go to The Keeshond Home Page.

On July 11, 1998 I was back in Cleveland, Ohio, where I graduated from West Tech High School in 1973, for our 25th Reunion. I put together a reunion page, click below on the Warrior icon to be transported to the Class of '73.

I am a lifelong fan of the Cleveland Browns. On March 24, 1998 Cleveland was awarded an expansion team that restored one of football's signature franchises to a loyal city once known as Browns Town. The Browns returned to the AFC Central, playing their first exhibition game against Dallas in the Hall of Fame game in Canton, Ohio. Their new stadium was built on the same site as old Cleveland Stadium, which was torn down after the move. The $247 million, 72,000-seat stadium even features a replica of that famous section in the Cleveland Stadium end zone known as the Dawg Pound.

I am also a fan of the Cleveland Indians, 1995 and 1997 American League Champions.
GO TRIBE!

A friend introduced me to the amazing Omaha Lancers of the United States Hockey League, one of the best amature hockey teams in the United States. At the first game of the 1998 Clark Cup Playoffs, played March 18th, 1998 my daughter Karen won a drawing for a photo of herself with her favorite player. She chose forward Chad Theuer, the Lancers' leading scorer.
The Lancers won the Clark Cup, the championship of the USHL, and then came in second at the National Amature Tournament. In the 1998-1999 Season they won their division, then advanced through the palyoffs to the Championship series where they lost the Clark Cup to Des Moines. They qualified for the National "A" Amature Tournament again, but fell in the semi-final game. However, in the 2000-2001 season, they not only won the Clarke Cup, but also the National Amature Tournamant, becoming the United States National Amature Champions.

The University of Kentucky Wildcats celebrated their 7th National Championship in basketball in March of 1998 with a come-from-behind 78-69 win over Utah in the NCAA Men's Basketball Championship!

Congratulations Wildcats!

I recently received a very flattering letter from someone named Suzi in North Carolina. She is a '73 high school graduate, like me, though her school was in California. She found this page on a search using the word "friend", and I want to share a portion of that letter with you.

"You must certainly recall those wonderful and wacky days of our teen years during those wild 70's! Do you also remember one of the greatest writings reborn during those times: Desiderata? If so, you would do all us Baby Boomers and 70's kids an honor by including its profound words on another page of your "Words of Wisdom." I wish I still had my wall poster with those words engraved. Rather, I have it tacked to my office at home on a posterboard which I reprinted from the internet. I have to stop daily and read the words that move me so deeply. In any event, good luck with future writings and endeavors, and additions to your home pages. Thanks for sharing some wonderful thoughts with us other web surfers."

Thank you Suzi. The words of the Desiderata were and still are very powerful, and it did have a strong resurgence during the '70's, so for Suzi, and because it is something worth sharing with everyone, here is Desiderata.

Below is a picture of me with Caity, my honorary niece. She is such a sweetie and I get to spoil her all I want.

I'll be adding all kinds of things here, pictures, links, and who knows what. More to come!! Hope you enjoy your visit! Thanks to all who have signed my guestbook or sent me e-mail. Come back again and see what else happens here.
