Special thanks to cool people

To all my clinically insane friends, who keep me happy and motivated and inspired enough to do this page and actually put myself into it, instead of doing some flaky "Oooh, look! This is me, and this is my page!", teeny bopper webpage. And also for giving me some pretty good blackmail shots to put up.

To my mom and dad, who are these really cool people that kinda raised me and made me into the person I am today. But aside from that, my mom comes and cruises through my site every once in a while and helps to keep me from doing stupid things, well, no more stupid than I'm used to. :-)

To the easy homepage builder that was at Tripod when I first started building this page in 1996 (I'm not sure if it's still there or not). It is mainly what taught me how to do HTML. You would tell it what you wanted on your page (much like the EZ File Editor at Geocities, but it was a lot more limited at that time), it would do it, then you could click a link and it would show you the codes it used to do all the stuff you told it to do. I would go in there, pick out the codes that did certain things, write them down in my little green book of internet mumbo-jumbo, and put them onto my Geocities site, and that was where the obsession began. From there I went on to how-to HTML sites and basically taught myself the whole thing. I was working on java and javascript for a while there, but I've pretty much given up on that. Everything on this page was done the hard way, by hand, no Geobuilder or EZ File Editor for me! I prefer to stay in the dark ages, thank you very much.
