A BRIEF HISTORY ABOUT
THIS SITE -- I originally created this site to network with
potential clients, employers, and business associates. I am
a senior management executive and consultant in the
Information Technologies and Management Consulting fields.
Over the
years, though, the site has grown to include other
areas of personal interest, not related to my profession.
Comments and suggestions for improving the site are always
welcome.

pastimes, as well as information about the philanthropic organizations that I
sponsor and participate in. Most recently, two new sections

AUDIOPHILE -- In one of
the more interesting comebacks in today’s world of
MP3-players and bug-sized ear-plugs, the format of choice while I was growing up
is becoming popular again... Vinyl !
This is due to a simple
fact: Vinyl sounds better. Vinyl
embodies a listening experience. One can sit in their easy
chair, drop the stylus on the turntable, and lean back.
While listening - one can admire the artwork on the
cover, the lyrics on the album’s
sleeve, and laugh at the big hair
that decorates the gatefold. This 'experience' is why millions of
people, myself included, became music fans.
An online database of my record collection is now available.
Pricing and grading are included.
Visitors are welcome to peruse it and use it as a reference
tool!
NUMISMATICS, COMING SOON -- A new section of this
website is being developed. Features will include an
online assay tool, database, news & updates, and popular
links.
Please come back and visit in the near future for more

ZYMURGY -- The science, art, and
craft behind making fermented beverages. This craft
has been around since
the stone-age. Egyptians mastered it by making
honey-mead. Europeans made it as a potable alternative
to the unsafe drinking water of the times.
I've been homebrewing beverages now for about 15 years. Porters,
pilsners, lagers, bocks, stouts; brewing each
variety is a unique process. The effort is
time-consuming and can be challenging, but the final product
is the reward.
Online is a sample of past brews and labels that I have
created over time. For some, I've also included
the recipes.
October 2007 - New - Additional pages have been added
to the collection. Due to ongoing popularity of
inquiries from beginning homebrewers, two tutorial sections
have been added:
