Guitar Club Web Site

Last session we learned about the district's google.com account. I've been working on a web site for Legacy's guitar club. The web-design software is pretty basic. You can't get really creative with it, but I can see how it might be a good way for clubs at the school to communicate. It might be a way to link to some of the more commonly-used web sites for guitar tab or to share guitar tabs/chords with one another. Next step is to get google accounts for each of the kids in the club.

Speaking of Delicious...

2-oz. fresh mushrooms
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/4 tsp. oregano
2 Tbs. Parmesan cheese

Preheat oven to 325 degrees. In a pie plate, mix meat, milk, crumbs, and salt. Mix together with a fork thoroughly and press into the pie plate. Spread ketchup on top. Sprinkle on mushrooms. Top with cheddar cheese, oregano, then Parmesan.

Hors d'oeuvres

I have been adding some very appetizing bookmarks to my Delicious account. In the process of adding some of my favorite sites, I have discovered some other good ones. Check out the "devil's advocate" site. I like how you can categorize the sites by key words.

Mao and Me

I just updated my profile and added a photo (of me in Beijing, China in front of the gates to the Forbidden City).

A blog by any other name would smell...

Sorry to miss the first class.  This is my first post after setting up my blog.  It's taken me entirely too long to come up with a name.  "Hot air express" (I got the idea from John McCain's bus) was in the running before I finally settled on MTcents (with help from my brilliant wife).
