Wade's Web Page

This web page features the THX sound.THX sound This is a Klingon-free web page.

A very long time ago, I spent 3 hours downloading Microsoft FrontPage Express , only to discover that I have the same problem that most web page designers have: nothing worth saying . Since then, much has happened. I got rid of FrontPage Express , replacing it with Netscape Composer , which I found to be a little better (and it came with a spell-checker). Then I tired of that, and decided to get rid of the entire NT machine .

I've installed Debian GNU/Linux , and there's no looking back (at least, not much looking back).

I experimented with a few Linux-hosted HTML editors, and eventually chose VIM .

I drive fast, I turn fast, I do everything fast. I even breakfast. I tend to confuse people with my sudden changes of heart. Sometimes I even confuse myself, which tends to cause problems. What Video Game Character Are You?

Wade has a new toy!

As well as getting a new operating system, I spent a few dollars on a new motorcycle. This, as well as my work are why this web page has not changed much in the past few (96) months. Also, I still don't have much to say.

The reason for this page
I don't have anything interesting to publish here. However, since I received a new digital camera for my birthday, I am delighted to be able to provide everyone with a photograph of my coffee cup.

Lovely picture of Wade's coffee cup

From this image, you will learn the name of a company that I once worked for (but no longer do), and the brand of camera that produced the image. You may also learn other things about me and my home. For example, I dribble when I drink coffee, I am a bit of a neatness freak (coaster), and the rest of my home is somewhat untidy. The barely-visible Valentine's day card in the background may lead you to suspect that I am involved in a long-term romantic relationship. I am, but my wife wisely won't let me put any pictures of her here. She has, however, consented to let me put a picture of her coffee cup here.

The above photo does not, however, give you any hints about my pets and/or children. This is mostly because it's a small image that simply doesn't show much, but it's also partly because I don't have any. We do, however, have some nice plants. I should warn you however, that none of our plants are Christmas trees. If you are interested in Christmas trees, you should look at the pictures from my Christmas vacation.

If you find the Christmas vacation pages interesting, you might also be interested in my New Orleans vacation.
