A day spent with friends, a fashion show, and a movie at the Henn Theater
I spent all morning working on blogs and websites, and then I was out and about for the next eight hours.
The stores at Brothers Landing had their customer appreciation day and I spent a couple of hours there looking at the cars in the auto show, listening to the live band, watching the fashion show at Rumors Clothing, and taking a few snapshots.
There are two things that really caught my attention - the beautiful models in the fashion s… Continue

Back online after a short break
During the spring, I suffer from terrible allergies and go for days when I just don't feel like doing anything at all but sleeping and trying not to be too miserable.
I've noticed in the last couple of days that I'm feeling much better than I have been, and that makes me a happy boy. Maybe it's partl… Continue

- Hi john! I spoke to you on Sat at REMAX. I was working there. If there is something you could do for me it would be some buyers to purchase real estate to jump start our local economy. What do you think!

Joshua Inglima said… - Hi John!
Many moons ago, when I was much younger and the internet was much slower, I had a little Mac running OS 9 and switched to OpenTransport, before Grove.Net had instructions on how to setup the dial-up connections for such a thing. I wrote up the setup guide and sent it to you after I had figured out how to make it work.
I don't recall exactly how you had become acquainted with my mother, but I do remember that she knew you. I'm not sure if you're aware, but she passed at the end of March this year quite unexpectedly.
At any rate, I've since upgraded to 3mbps fiber service at home and dabble with PHP, graphics, websites, and pretty much anything networked. I stumbled across MurphyConnections.com while researching existing "Shop Local" and other Murphy-based websites looking to help promote my employers at Xpress Yourself and help the community know what services they offer.
I really like what you've got here, and look forward to using it in the future. Let me know if there's anything I can do to help out.
Cheers!

- Great John I completely understand.. Just to ease your mind Tom and I reside in murphy in our home that we purchased almost 3 years ago.. We are getting to the preliminaries of being residents and working in between.. I know eventually we will have things in order.. I do enjoy this community and think that what you have created here is just awesome.. I look forward to talking with other locals and sharing stories of business and personal experiences of the mountain life. Thanks again...
