I am thinking about writing a HTML Guide for Beginners.  When I was learning this language I found a lot of books and articles that (to be quite frank) were hard to understand.  I believe there are more and more folks out there who would like to start a personal websites but are intimidated and won’t step out to begin. 

So if you don't mind I would like to start writing a html guide and if you could help me edit it, that would be great.  Help me to make it understandable to as many folks a possible.

So if you’re interested in learning html and you don't mind helping me edit a HTML Guide we could form a great team.

If you know html and find I write something that may not be completely accurate.  Please gently let me know so I can be correct.

Just in case you are wondering what I will do with this guide; I plan on offering it free on my website.

So I get a guide for my website and hopefully you will learn html.

WIN - WIN

Either way I will start soon writing.

In the United States, the driving force behind the establishment of the celebration of Father's Day was Mrs. Sonora Smart Dodd, born in Creston, Washington. Her father, the Civil War veteran William Jackson Smart, as a single parent raised his six children in Spokane, Washington. She was inspired by Anna Jarvis's efforts to establish Mother's Day. Although she initially suggested June 5, the anniversary of her father's death, she did not provide the organizers with enough time to make arrangements, and the celebration was deferred to the third Sunday of June. The first Father's Day was celebrated on June 19, 1910, in Spokane.

Unofficial support from such figures as William Jennings Bryan was immediate and widespread. President Woodrow Wilson was personally feted by his family in 1916. President Calvin Coolidge recommended it as a national holiday in 1924. In 1966, President Lyndon Johnson made Father's Day a holiday to be celebrated on the third Sunday of June. The holiday was not officially recognized until 1972, during the presidency of Richard Nixon.

Just a little tidbit of information. (found this on the Web)

Happy Father's Day!

Well this is my first post and the beginning of who knows what.

Let me first say something about the TRIBE...

My Tribe is my family.  Many people ask about why I call my family the TRIBE.  In the Old Testament the 12 tribes were actually 12 different families. The Burroughs Tribe would be like the tribe of Judah.  We have a large family when we look at the world’s view of family size.  But we might be small in comparison to some other home school families.  It is all dependent on which side you are looking at us from.  The Tribe began just a few years ago when we have our fourth child.  I said something at church about my little tribe and it has kind of stuck with us.

It has become a very useful replacement surname for our family.  It is easier to say "Let's go Tribe!" rather than "Let's go boys and girls", or even "Let's go Burroughs'".  Our children like being called the Tribe - I know because I just asked them.  It's unique and special. I have not heard many families called the tribe of "You pick a name" ours is the Tribe of Burroughs.

I guess my family is into nick-names.  I have called my wife "Sweetie" almost from day one.  My children are Cuddlebug; Doodlebug; Buddy; Pumkin-head; and Peanut.

Come to think of it I guess there are lots of folks who are into nick-names because the folks at the church call me PE for Pastor Eddie.

Any how I could ramble for some time about nothing it must be the preacher gene.  But I am anxious to see what my first post looks like so I am going to wrap this one up to take a look-see.

But before I do I would like to complete my original thought.  That is; I call my family the Tribe because I believe it is a way to show affection and belonging.

Now let’s see how this looks!
