From T Paul's Family: A Message

A number of weeks ago, I received a phone call that surprised me.  It was T Paul's sister, Linda.  We had a short conversation about him and she requested that I post a message from the family here.

To all the friends and acquaintances who sent expressions of condolence or assisted the family of T Paul in any way after his untimely death. Please accept our heartfelt thanks for all you have done. Your expressions of sympathy and affection for our son and brother have helped us immensely in coming to terms with his death.We have come to understand his great attachment to you all and to Vancouver.

We have brought his ashes to his home in the east but we feel that his spirit for the most part remains in the west where he found his real niche in the arts community.

Thank you all for embracing him as a friend.

Sincerely Jim & Lorraine St. Marie
Linda & Torin van Loon

If you have any memories about Paul you would like to share with me it would be very much appreciated. Thank you again Linda & family.

My heart goes out to them.  This has been a hard time and I hope visitors to ShanesWorld will take a few moments and send them a quick note.  If you have any notes, leave them in the comments or e-mail them to me and I can forward them on.

buy the book, blog your world, feel like a million bucks

Just in case you didn't know, I co-wrote Blogging For Dummies! Before you send me any congratulations, questions, flowers, or blow me any number of kisses  - why don't you go buy ten copies and make me rich and famous.  

Or you could just buy a copy since it is a really good book and it has loads of great information for those of you out there who want to jump into blogging because it is fun and exciting.

podcasting

What else do I do? I talk out loud, record it, and post it on line. I chatter about all kinds of things. Some of the things are nerdy, some professional, and some of them are very much NSFW. Why? Because do them for myself and my non-work life. You can be the judge.

events

I do a little traveling here and there for technology conferences and what not. Here are the ones I am going to next or have attended recently.
