Welcome! I'm a Washington, DC-based,
early-retired corporate executive originally from New Jersey.
I have lived in Taiwan, China and Hong Kong as well as Boston, Chicago
and Princeton, New Jersey before settling in Washington. I've got a
broad array of interests, and I've chosen to highlight several of them
on this site. See below to learn more about:
Websites.
I've created a couple of dozen
Internet sites and love to marry text, graphics and computer effects to
communicate about something, or someone, clearly and effectively. I
specialize in personal websites and sites for small businesses, co-ops
and condominiums and
not-for-profit organizations. See some of my creations
here.
China.
I started studying Mandarin right after college in
1973, and all told have spent eight years in China, Taiwan and Hong Kong.
My principal intellectual interest in the China field has centered on
cross-cultural communication and bridging cultural differences. I have
also done some writing
about the Chinese language. Read about my China interests
here.
Genealogy.
This has been an all-consuming hobby for me for nearly two decades, and
I've had a lot of successes in finding ancestors and far-flung relatives. If you're a
Seligman,
Zeligman,
Zelikman, Rudbart, Sternreich, Milsky,
Liebman,
Loveman, Abrams,
Abrahams, Ambrose
or Abrahamowitz, contact
me to see if we are related! Or
see the genealogy
page.
Farfel the Dog.
This amiable
West Highland White
Terrier, with whom I have shared an apartment and my life for
ten and a half years, has a winning "dognality" and his very own web page! Want to talk
your spouse out of the idea of getting a dog? Farfel has already cost
north of $49,000. Don't miss Farfel's budget page,
located
