Hello to all at Wikipedia,
I live in Wheat Ridge, Colorado.
I joined Mar. 25, 2005. My interests include history, reading and, especially, British television and films.
In 1978 I saw Vincent Price in the one man play Diversions and Delights, written by John Gay. It was set in a Parisian theater and Price played an aging Oscar Wilde relating memories of his life and works. The performance was extraordinary and started a life long interest in Wilde. The last decade has seen an outpouring of interest in, and publications about, Oscar and the people in his life. I have read most of it. I have, also, done a fair amount of research about his visit to Leadville, Colorado, and been privileged to stand on the very stage where he spoke to the citizens of that mining boom town in 1882.
Update of Aug 10, 2006
Editing here has been a fun learning experience as I have both made mistakes and helped to improve (I hope) several articles in my 17 months here at wikip. I am proud to say that I have talked at least three friends into becoming contributors here. I came upon this userbox today and it seemed a perfect description of what I like doing here so I thought that I would add it to my page. One of my favorite wikignome projects is to take Award (Academy, Tony etc) links that are red and turn them blue by finding the way that they are phrased on their wikipages. |
