Our Family Home Page I keep coming back to the "fact" that this page may just be "IT"! (the "Family Home Page", that is :))
Never Forget [JCambCrane] My daughter (Stephanie/SCrane) tells me these are the words to a song. I just felt they were worthy of posting.
A Poem In Support of Our Fighting Forces [JCambCrane] I found this on an AOL message board (of all places!). I've doctored it up a bit (hoping to make it better) but, in any event, GENUINELY thought it was worthy of posting.
A Mother's Day favorite, our A Child's Angel is an "inspirational" which we think is well worth the "read". Awards This Page Has Won (6, to date) [JCambCrane]
In Loving Memory: Leo J. Buongiorno [JCambCrane] (November 6, 1916 - January 28, 1998) In Loving Memory of Leo J. Buongiorno, my Uncle and Friend, who died on January 28, 1998 but who will NEVER be forgotten.
Once completed (meaning that all "associated sites" have been completed and that all of the links to these "associated sites" have been tested and proclaimed unbroken; projected for November, 2003), it is our intention to "launch" our FREEBarter Club (under construction; projected: December, 2003) from this site.
The Sculpture of Michelangelo [SCambCrane] An interesting and informative site that I originally created for the purpose of securing credit in a college level World Civilization course (HIS 111/2002), this site has been expanded to include not only a "timelined" Biography of Michelangelo, but also vignette style analyses re: 40+ of this Master's sculptures (and enlarged representations thereof). In addition, bibliographic links as well as links to "relevant" cities are provided.
The Great Moon Hoax of 1835. [SCambCrane] Created as an assignment for a college level American History course I took (HIS 121/2003), this site reproduces, in full, the six (6) article series that was originally carried by the New York Sun in the last week of August, 1835. Links to Bibliographic references that provide additional historic and journalistic insights are included.
Beowulf. [SCambCrane] Created as an assignment for my 11th Grade English Literature course (2003), this 48 page site not only reproduces, in full, all 43 chapters of this epic poem but also provides additional pages that include (a) a general background of the poem, (b) a Plot Summary, (c) its "Prelude", and (d) a page devoted to related links.
Thomas Paine's Common Sense. [SCambCrane] Much to my surprise, I found myself actually enjoying my college level American History course (HIS 121/2003), so when I came across Thomas Paine's "Common Sense" (at the Back to Modern History SourceBook site, a source for many historical documents, many of which are in the "public domain"), I thought I would add it to my own personal "portfolio" of webpages/websites.
States of the USA [SCambCrane]
Take a mini-tour of all 50 states, the District of Columbia, and 10 countries I enjoyed 'visiting'. Constructed as a project for my 8th Grade Geography class (January 2000), I am hoping to add to this as time goes on.
Back2Basix Online Shopping Center [JCambCrane]
This "Store Directory" lists -- and links to -- the 1200+ storefronts which comprise the Back2Basix Online Shopping Center. MILLIONS of nationally recognized brand name products become available through this page.
Glossary of Computer and Internet Terms [JCambCrane] One of my "earlier works", this GLOSSARY provides 100+ commonly used Internet Terms. While so much has come about since 1997 (when I first created this page), I believe this entry could still be useful to the novice as well as the experienced Internet web user.
TarotUser [JCambCrane]
The TarotUser site is a comprehensive site that, when completed, will feature interpretations for all 78 cards (Upright and Reversed) of the Rider-Waite deck. Links to internal pages offer an Introduction to and Brief History of the Tarot, other card interpretations, significance of the Arcanas (Major and Minor), all four Suits, Tarot Card Decks and Spreads (Celtic Cross and others) (layouts), and more while links external pages offer Books, Music and CD's, Movies, and LOTS of other stuff.

Holiday Pages
Christmas: [SCambCrane]
Make Someone Smile Just a really friendly page. Full of SmileyFaces. Make someone smile, Somebody is thinking about you! Pass this on to all your friends. Show someone you are thinking about them. Make their day!
Christmas Caroles This page contains the LYRICS to all of the Religious Christmas Carols I could think of (more will be added as time progresses I am sure).
Yes, Virginia, There IS A Santa Claus One hundred years ago, a little girl asked the editor of The New York Sun if she should believe in Santa Claus. The newspaper's 500-word reply -- written without a byline by Francis Pharcellus Church and headlined "Is There a Santa Claus?" -- became the most reprinted editorial of all time. Here is the original, as published Sept. 21, 1897.
'Twas the Night Before ... This page contains seven (7) different versions of the very popular poem, Twas the Night Before Christmas.
Chanukah: [SCambCrane]
This page provides a brief history of Chanukah (Hanukkah), the Festival of Lights, as well as cursorial insights into some of the customs and traditions associated with it. Links to sites re: Juddaism, generally, as well as sites dedicated to Jewish culture and traditions.
Take a look at the "wallpapers" offered above, and then go on to see how any one (or more) of them might be used to complement your own website project(s). :)
[referred by: SCambCrane] Can't say enough about this site. A truly WONDERFUL site for kids (ages 12+; there seem to ALOT of Moms represented, too!). Especially for GIRLS (LOTS of boys are registered, but they seem to take it MUCH too seriously! :)). Adopt a NeoPet [available options range from "Absolutely Adoreable" (there's even a "BARBIE"-type clone -- called a "Usul") to "downright SCARY"!]. Feed him/her. Play with him/her. Groom him/her. Buy him/her a "PetPet" (to Play with) of its own. In short -- take care of him/her! Open a SHOP (to sell items). Buy/Sell items at Auction. Buy/Sell "STOCKS". Take on an opponent in the BATTLEDOME. PLAY GAMES (approximately 50 represented at any given time): range is from simple to VERY difficult -- adaptations of "Concentration" (matches), logic, "ping pong", solitaire (American and Chinese), poker, tetris, etc. VERY MUCH worth a "look-see"!

Select a "tracker"/counter that brings you traffic... . Other trackers put cute little graphics on your page that link to their site. Not so, with this "counter" -- YOU can be the only one who sees how many "visitors" have clicked on to your site. In addition, with the WhozOnTop webpage tracker, your site is linked directly to others of the same Category or Location. The result? Quality visitors to your website! A nice little tool, to be sure.
[referred by SCambCrane] A nice little "counter" for those of us who LIKE those "cute little graphics" my Mom seems to have a problem with :). Numerous colors, formats, sizes. Check it out.

EMail Lotto[referred by: JCambCrane]
This is the only online game that I have ever made the time to play (perhaps once every 2 weeks).
You "buy" your ticket(s) by viewing other websites (a particular interest of mine).
In the course of the three (3) years in which I have been registered here (and by using their "quick pick" option), I've won approximately $300.00 [obviously, NOT the best money-maker on the web -- but HONEST people, an entertaining game, and (for me, when I play) a relaxing and enjoyable experience, overall].
Website advertising is actively promoted; a "referral program" (via which you can earn $$$, too) is also available. [Last accessed (for purposes of this page): 2003-Apr-09]
