Roaming Ideas.

As I sat at my desk in College Algebra preparing for the test coming up, my eyes couldn't help but stray out the window I was so close to and watch life go by. During my little day dream status, I thought about how lucky us Americans are in even the simplest of daily luxuries. Then I began to reminisce about my World History class, and some of our lessons on different empires throughout the ages. If you cannot tell already I have a serious problem of wandering thoughts. But anyway... Back to the story. I wonder how the people of those previous states thought about their society before its collapse. Were they concerned about the governing bodies status? The safety of their state? How their lives would be effected even? Or did they care at all? Who knows?! What I do know is that it is the people along with their government that make up a country, state, empire, republic, or whatever else their is.

We are all connected within it, so it is important for us all to pay attention and help one while the other helps us, or else who is watching who and then who knows what is really going on. How many actually read the paper, watch the news, or read what's posted on the web? Everyone should before those luxuries are swept right out from underneath our feet, leaving everyone wondering how it happened all of a sudden. These things do not happen in a day, a week, or even a month. They build over time reaching perilous heights before suddenly it all comes to a head. Then what happens? The same thing that has happened so many times before in history, we become a society read about or studied in institutions abroad. Or even by students like me in a fleeting moment of thought.

My Web Page.

Although it is not the best of web sites out there or the most entertaining. You can check out my personal website thanks to Earthlink. http://home.earthlink.net/~waldo2129/

While attending high school in Browerville, I worked a bit on the schools website and through this was able to more or less teach myself some of the basics of html, the use of Dreamweaver, and web page basics on structure and design. I am hoping to pursue a career more on the service side of computers, but an off to the side job of web design might be quite fun as well.

Back to the web page. Earthlink has taken advantage of an excellent program called Trellix, and incorporated it into their customer service. I found it quite easy to use and understand the program along with its well constructed online help. So for those of you out there that are not quite html literate like me, take a look at Trellix.

Has anyone else noticed they actually show blogs and websites on the national news stations now? Well anyways, I will be back with many posting in the near future.
