Late Breaking News! (a.k.a. "Out of Date Baby Pictures"... :-)
Older sister Sarah is growing up fast!
She's doing more and more all the time, and becoming quite mobile.
These are some pictures of her from Easter 2000.

Here are some pictures of the family
from an ORNL division picnic, June 1999.
Here are some Pictures of Sarah
as a newborn baby!!!
And a Bunch More Good Pictures of Sarah
as a baby. :-)
Here's a 3MB AVI Movie of little Sarah - hope this works! :-)
Here's another 1.7MB AVI Movie - she's awake for this one! :-)
Celebrate the Freedom
of the
United States of America
Stop Censorship - It's Not the Answer
Not everyone may like the things that free people express,
but that doesn't give anyone the right to say what can or
cannot be said, written or displayed.
Unless my choice of expression removes your right to freedom,
you have no alternative other than to make your own choice
not to listen to me.
Freedom carries with it the responsibility to continually
evaluate new ideas and stand up for your own beliefs and
principles.
Welcome to Jeembo's Home(r) Page. D-Oh!
This web page made certain powers that be at my place of employment
go totally insane, and I so was encouraged to move it all off site...
I'm not naming any names - you figure it out.

How do!
Welcome to my shop, lemme cut your mop, lemme shave your crop!
Daintily... daintily...
Hey you!!
Don't look so perplexed. Why must you be vexed?
Can't you see you're next?!
YES, you're next. Yoooour so next.
How about a nice close shave?
Teach your whiskers to behave.
Lots of lather, lots of soap...
Please sit still, don't be a Dope!
Now we're ready for the scraping,
there's no use to try escaping!!
Yell & Scream & Rant & Rave,
