Here's what's changed on this web site lately.  I put the dates next to the changes so you can see this isn't a web site that was abandoned half-finished eleven years ago.  This web site was half-finished much more recently!  Click some of the links here to see what I've updated since the last time you checked in.

ATTENTION: Can you imagine that I've been doing the "What's New" section since April 27, 1998?  It's gotten so big I moved a big chunk of it to "What's Old" -- check it out!

 

June 28, 2006: U.S. President Wins the U.K. Lottery
  
The president replied to the letter he received, informing him that he had won the U.K. lottery.
June 13, 2005: Highlanders Return To Darien
  
December 4, 1999, I received a letter from Michael P. Higgins, of Georgia, which says he is planning a "first annual" Highland event to be held in Darien, Georgia, USA, on 25 March, 2000.  A little over five years later, someone emailed me asking how it went, and copying Michael.  He replied saying it was a great success, and has been held annually for five years now.  I've asked Michael for details!  Check the web page for more updates as they come in.
May 11, 2005: Oh my gosh, it's been almost a year since I updated the "What's New" section of this website!  A lot of new things have been added, but I just can't think of them all right now.  Anyway, here's just one new thing for you to look at, in the "Fun Pages" section:
  

When you go backpacking, do you find the weight of your gear slows you down?  Well try EATing your gear, "Where Your Last Mile Is Your Lightest Mile".  It's hard to tell if this website is on the level (I make no claim that it is!) but whether you're interested in backpacking or just a good laugh, check it out.

May 12, 2004: More crazy things about the English Language Four All Who Reed and Right
   Just one example to whet your appetite:

If a vegetarian eats vegetables,
what does a  humanitarian eat?

December 12, 2003: An animated graphic that depicts 12 -- or is it 13 -- people standing around.
  
July 18, 2003: A new page in Graeme's Language section called "Dark and Stormy Night"
   The first sentence of a really, really bad imaginary novel.
June 30, 2002: A new section about "Rants"
   I find rants, diatribes, tirades, and other vituperative, bombastic, declamatory, pompous, overblown, bitter and abusive speech to be fascinating.  (Thanks to the Merriam-Webster Thesaurus!)  Click the "Rants" link, above, for some good examples, and an explanation of the following "rantlet":

Mine is a perfect theory of endless desire for eternal logic driving perpetual vision in a logical, infinite dream that gives the final best escape from objective thought only through ambition.  It is your only clue to endless perfection.  Only by endless thought will you find the clue to the logic of the infinite perfection.  This way, you will dream the only perfect, "best and final" desire for the theory of ambition whose objectives escape ordinary vision while driving perpetual logical goals through eternal goodness.  My objective in writing this is only the infinite logical dream of eternal, endless perfection and perfect perpetual vision.  This final theory typifies my desire and ambition to prove that thought is the best logic and the only clue to help you escape driving California freeways.  Speaking of driving, perfect vision is the only endless clue that best typifies perpetual escape and signifies the ambition for final thought and desire of the infinite theory of perfection. To dream of eternal logical logic (as opposed to that illogical kind) is my objective.  To be clear, objective perfection is the only escape from dream thought.  Perfect logic is the theory of infinite ambition and it is also that final driving force for logical vision without the desire for any clue of perpetual knowledge of the best, endless, eternal thing.  Hark!  Escape the thought of ever finding the elusive clue to that final infinite logic and eternal perpetual vision which is driving your fruitless search for perfection.  Perfect wisdom is endless, and only desire and ambition will bring you closer to your objective of "dream theory" which is its own logical best.  Logical thought regarding the dream of eternal perfection is the only clue to the objective desire driving the theory that is the best perfect endless perpetual escape not from but to infinite vision of that logical final ambition.

January 12, 2002: In "Caitlin's Section"
  
Caitlin McRae Playing Soccer for Paraclete High School There was an article in the Los Angeles Daily news all about Caitlin playing soccer for Paraclete High School, complete with a very nice picture.

The mcraeclan.com website has grown to over 1500 pages as of May 12, 2004, including
bullet233 pages in mcraeclan.com,
bullet69 pages in mcraeclan.com/bible (yes, the entire King James bible is here in a readily searchable form)
bullet514 pages in mcraeclan.com/ClanHistory (a good source of McRae family history, written in 1899, and as yet only partially transcribed into this website)
bullet139 pages in mcraeclan.com/IanAndBlancheStory (another good source of McRae family history, including a chart showing 15 generations of my own family tree)
bullet90 pages including almost 3000 external hyperlinks in mcraeclan.com/Links (a pretty good resource for finding the sort of things I also look for on the Internet -- it's a publicly available copy of my "Favorites" aka "Bookmarks")
bullet507 pages in mcraefamily.com/MathHelp -- a resource for high school and college math students studying algebra, trig, and calculus.
