Life's Strange Occurences, or It's A Small World

[madshutterbug]

I would like to send you all on a wee Internet trip. It might seem apropoe of nothing to go here, but there is something significant to me about the site. This is where my brother and his wife pulled Sailing Vessel North Star onto the hard for maintenance just a bit shy of a year ago now. This is where Hurricane Ivan trashed the entire island, though not, fortunately, North Star. This is where they say some nice things about my brother.

And so I just want to send them some really, really good vibes.

Every now and again, it pays to Google on your name for images. John is the first one up.

Here's to you, Bro. No regrets, Fair winds and following seas.

Well, my name is too bloody common, and there aren't any pictures of me on the Internet...but I did find a photo of mine that is being used on a commercial website (I gave permission), and I was surprised to find that a book I wrote like 14 years ago is still in stock and selling at Barnes and Noble.

Unfortunately, I was inexperienced and did the book as work-for-hire, and no one expected them to stay in print, and I've missed 14 years of royalties. On five books. Grrrr.
