Okay, this page is going to be constantly updated, so make sure you check back very soon.
Okay, meet my old buddy Natalie B. she doesn't know it, but I now have taken to call her NatalieB1. Now, there is a number of reasons for this. The first reason is because she has this "b1" thing contained within her email address. The second reason is because I since have another friend called Natalie B (who you will meet later.) She will kill me probably, but I had to mention her on this page with a site, so this is what she's working on as part of her uni course in marketting. Check out Natalie's page I met Natalie in year 7 (my first year of high school) as she attended secondary school with me at Vermont, but we didn't really become friends til year 8, (second year.) Well we became quite close. I felt she was the only sighted person who was able to relate to me soooo well, as a blind person. so Nat, keep up the great work with your web site buildings!
Someone else I met in year 8 was me buddy Kellie We don't seem to get together all that often any more, but when we do, we always have a blast. The last time I saw her was for her birthday. A few of us went to a movie marathon, (it was the first one I had attended). it basically consists of three movies in a row, shown from midnight to the wee small hours; a bit hard on folks who absolutely *need their beauty sleep like me. :) Lol! but, it was the best fun! :)
Okay, visit Danny He's got a small site happening; small because at the moment, he hasn't much up there, but he informs me it's well on the way. I met danny, about four years ago (would be my guess) but we weren't really friends up until a couple of years ago. I love this guy's sense of humour. I don't know if he's aware of this or not, but he always cracks me up. Just go to his site, and you'll see what I mean.
Okay, now meet Travis. He hasn't updated his site til the end of 98 I see, but, still go and check it out, it's awesome! :) I met travis when I first hopped on the internet in 1998. I subscribed to destin (which is The! Best! Celine Dion mailing list), and I sent the introduction thing about myself, and low and behold, he wrote back to me saying: "We've got two things in common. We're the two biggest Celine Dion fans she ever, ever, would want to have! And, you know the second thing, we're both blind." Well, something like that. but, those were in the days when I use to use the internet in Dos. and, I have the best memories of travis and I spending many a day (nights for him) on this shell program called "Talk" which, well, the amount of times I got caught with a whole heap of work to do at the last minute was, ... well, you can decide! :) but, I enjoyed those days Travis. and, I promise I won't mention the time that I ran up a $50 bill talking to you on the phone. Nor will I mention I did the same to your phone bill the very next time, just to get you back! ha ha! :)
Meet the original Shazza. You have to check out Sharon's page. Sharon and I met at the Prahran campus of RVIB about two years ago, and since then, we have been firm friends. She's amazing, Her web site tells you she's a sighty, but she has worked extremely hard on her photo gallery to make it what it is, so well done!
Now, you have to visit the page of my friend Chris Chris and I met October of 2000, so check him out.
Now, go and check out the site of my friend Shannon She was first a friend of chris's, but then I decided to write and introduce myself to her one day, as I had heard quite a lot about her, (good things of course! :) and I needed to find out for myself. And, well, we have never looked back, have we Shaz! :) I have taken to call Shannon "Shaz", and when I first did it, it took her by much surprise, but now she loves it! Shaz, you've already become a *great friend of mine, and I am really greatful for that. Thanks.
Now, check out the site of my friend NatalieB2 Okay, how did we meet? It's a bit of a weird story, because I started initially talking to her through the blindness related list called jfw-icq, because I knew her name from shannon's forwards, and it turned out that yes, she, Shannon and Chris were all friends as well. so, well, the blind community is just so small. But her site is awesome. I can't stop thinking about that braille on chocolate! :)
Now I would like to introduce you to my friend Sam Sam is on an internet mailing list called Hands.
Also, my friend Rich He owns the list, and does a great job. It's the most awesome list, for more information, visit his sight.
Now meet Daryl, the hypa chick from Canada. Okay, she is also on Hands, where I met her about three years ago. A group of us call her "D", but now she calls herself "~*~praisegirl", which I think is rather awesome! :) Check her new site out by hopping on over to D's home
Now, I want to introduce you to Rob!br> Rob is on Destin, that's where we met. And, he has another site for which Celine Dionis the one and only topic. so go, check it out!
Now I want to introduce you to another destinion, who has also become a good friend of mine. Check out Iva
Now to a site by my german friend Tanja! Tanja and I met about a year ago in a chat program called Accessable Chat" for us blind peeps.
Okay, Rob is the only one of my friends who has divoted his whole site to discussing a celebrity. I now want to point your browers to a site of my newest friend who has done the same thing, but this time, she discusses Gretel Killeen, who is ... well ... an Aussie legend (but still living.) I first heard about Gretel as she was the hoast of our Big Brother, but I had since learnt that she goes way beyond that. Anyway, before I go further, I want to let you know how KC and I began talking, because it's bizarre! Okay, picture this, it was late on Saturday night, and i was tired, but just surfing around on the web, and stumbled apon this Gretel Killeen site. And, well, to cut a long story short, there was an address to write too, and in the combination of my tiredness (not reading properly) and my trusty screne reader not co-operating properly, I wrote a lovely letter, thinking "Oh my gosh! I am writing to Gretel!" Well, it wasn't her obviously, it was KC. so now we talk on msn, and, she may not be Gretel herself, but, it doesn't matter, we're destin great friends, right KC? :) Anyway, so hop along over to KC's site, and find out all about GK as well. Now meet my new buddy Ricky! She is one! amazing! chick! (though she's probably wanting to kill me for saying that, as it's something she knows that I know I *hate phrazes like that myself! I'm sorry, but it has to be said anyway! :)
Okay now, visit the page of my good friends Marie and Neil! Their site has many pictures of themselves, so check em out! We met quite a few years ago now, then we lost contact for about two years, and only hooked up again a while ago. Obviously we're glad of that. :)
Now hop on over to the site of Liam! He has a lot of archived radio programs on there. Internet radio is always a possibility for me, but it isn't happening yet, but Liam knows that stuff, and is quite a professional at it I reckon.
Okay now to some singing decktalks, :) To all you sighted folk, let me explain. Decktalk is a screne reader that consists of nine different voices, some male and others female. Decktalk is driven by a speech program, (In my case it's Jaws for windows.) But, by doing some very clever programming, it is possible to make decktalk sing. I have got a couple of very clever friends who have put it to the test, and they have very kindly given me permission to show you some of them. Click here to check out the crazy singing decktalk page!
OK for now that's about all, but, you know the deal, there will be stuff added here, so come back soon! This page was last modified on 27th June, 2004. Click here to return to my home page.,
