Updated site.  Added links to poetry and some of my articles so far this year. I hope I didn't mess up the table structure in the navigation panel.

Second attempt at test.

Third attempt.

Happy 3rd Anniversary Mark Hoback on your excellent online magazine Virtual Occoquan!  This issue is chuck full of the best of Salon blogs, including yours truly, who submitted "The Return," a poem inspired by the beginning scene in the film Young Adam, starring Ewan McGregor.  

I have not finished reading through the issue but I can tell you how much I enjoyed Paul Hinrich's commentary on Cindy Sheehan, titled "Dumb Question."

Other participants in this issue include:

Ian Wood, Elsa Panizzon, Steve Raker, Ed Buziak, World O'Crap, Karen Murphy, Katy Hipke, Birdie Jaworski, Jack McGeehin, Simon Lavitagus, Molly South, Case Wagenvoord, Leslie Talbot, Mike Doughten, Glutter, and, of course, Mark Hoback.

Again, congratulations Mark on your 3rd!  Long live VO!
