Back to School


Colleen (l) and Christina (r) Mahaffie head off to their first day of school for the 2004-05 school year. Posted by Hello

Colleen is starting 7th grade and Christina 3rd at the Southern Delaware School of the Arts. Karen (Mom) is working half days as a special education assistant. All three were up and ready in plenty of time, though the girls did some moaning and groaning about the early hours. Pro-forma, of course; they were excited.

Uh-Oh, Guess I Shoulda Googled First

Google Search: "mike's musings"
So, there are nearly 700 other Mike's Musings on-line. We can't all be musing the same things, can we?

BBC - North East Wales Weird Guide - Weird

BBC - North East Wales Weird Guide - Weird: "Sightings map
A map of UFO and ghost sightings as posted by contributors in NE Wales. Click on the points to find out more. Plus, we're now receiving stories from around the world."

I found this by chance while jump-surfing this evening. Somehow, I was on a web site dedicated to the government of Wales, in the United Kingdom and stumbled across this section. I was struck at first by the use of a clickable map -- geospatial intelligence -- to navigate among paranormal sightings. I was hooked, however, when I found comments like:

Kristle from everywhere
I've had visions and things for years, since I was born... of various places throughout England and the surrounding areas. I know they are true. They haunt me on a daily basis. You are not crazy, my dear, you have an old soul.

Test of posting a photo


This is Christina on Rehoboth's Boardwalk, in Fall 2003. Posted by Hello

This was to test the ability to post photos using "hello." More, I would guess, to follow.

Well, I had to start somewhere...

This is the starting point. I've been meaning to start a web log for some time now. I was just waiting for my ego to catch up with my intentions.

I'm not sure what form this will take, or what it will ultimately be, but It'll be fun finding out!
