Personal

	The Christian Brothers: have been my life for over four decades, since I first met them in high school in Philadelphia. They (both individually and collectively) have inspired me to be the person I am. Working in the four corners of the world for over 300 years, the Brothers have aided thousands to leave behind the misery that results from a lack of education.
	Travel Over the years I've had the good fortune to travel to Western Europe (notably Ireland, England, France, and Germany), Israel, and parts of the Caribbean. Having worked in Maryland and Tennessee, I've had occasion to travel extensively in those areas too.
	Exploring the Web / Favorite Web Sites Nothing has transformed the world more in the past 20 years than the explosion of the World Wide Web and its hypertext links. It is an important source of information, commerce, and entertainment. Now there's even more to do online, with such things as "blogs" and "wikis." Come see my own rather simple blog. For the more adventurous, you can create a "Second Life."

Interesting
Web Sites

	La Salle University's Art Museum is far too frequently described as "our little secret." Check out its web site. Better yet: arrange for a visit!
	The Arizona Republic has an interesting collection of recipes for beginners (like me) who are trying to learn how to cook.
	Very useful for obtaining news, etc. when not near a television.
	You have to appreciate the off-beat humor, but Dilbert is worth a visit. Another source of droll humor is Non Sequitur.
	One of the best "search engines" around. You can find almost anything. They even have a toolbar for your browser.
	The tinkerer in me leads me to this site .
	Having spent several days there for heart bypass surgery in August, 1999, I cannot state too strongly my appreciation of the high quality of care I received during my stay.
	The keystone for browsing through the Library's vast holdings as well as the springboard to numerous federal government sites.
	Myriad historical, cultural, and entertainment venues are present in Philadelphia. This is a good link to find out what's going on here.
	Located at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, MD, the Space Telescope Science Institute provides the latest photographs from the Hubble Space Telescope.
	Sudoku has become quite the fad ! Here is a site where you can start by playing simple games (with lots of assistance) and then move on to more advanced ones.
	An extremely useful on-line journal for those working in higher education, examining a wide variety of issues. A print version is available free for qualified individuals.
	One of the most novel developments in the Internet of recent years has been the development of "wikis," collections of information submitted and edited by visitors to a web site. Wikipedia is a free, web-based encyclopedia based upon the same principal.
	Want to know in what directions the creators of the WWW are considering leading the Web? Here you can download/read their current research.
	Trying to figure out who directed a film in 1935? Whether a recent film has been released on DVD? The Internet Movie Data Base is an excellent source for information related to motion pictures and TV programs.
