(notes about the pictures in the header)

The background picture was taken in the summer of 2007 when my family and I visited the Grand Canyon (it was taken - I think - in the Desert View area). The weird picture on the bottom left was made as an "avatar" for a motorcycle forum. It is patchwork of images from various Rush* album covers, etc. (*the only band worth listening to!). It is supposed to show a guy on a motorcycle (it does, but only if you squint!) - there is a special prize for anyone who can pick out the various Rush albums represented by this image! The picture on the bottom right is the "Toxic Avenger" (a nickname from work) who is the first super hero from NJ! Since I work with toxic chemicals and am from NJ, the name seems to fit. The picture in the middle is for my brothers - they call me the Michelin man when they see me with all of my riding gear on (you'll see what they mean when you scroll through these pages). I take no offense. As they say, "I would rather sweat a little, than bleed a lot." I'm a "gear snob" (i.e., I live by the ATGATT motto: All The Gear All The Time).

The quote about "...The following takes place..." is, well, if you do NOT know where that is from, you will not get the joke!
