Welcome to Fingerboard-Productions.com.

I built this website to make it easy to get to OneDrive, where the Fingerboard collection of more than 60,000 photos and videos is stored. Over time, I added pages for family news, family trees, and notable deeds. Last year, as therapy for my severe case of TDS, I added a blog called "spouting off" and have been doing so ever since.

Regarding my opinions... Churchill once said, "These, Gentlemen, are the opinions on which I base my facts." I admit to sometimes representing opinions as facts, but there's very little danger in doing this with Trump. His shenanigans are so over the top that a few opinion v. fact slips hardly matter. As for the number of people who are reading these opinions, according to my hit-counter, this website gets about 60 visitors a day. Most of these are bots, but some are real people. To those visitors who want to respond or make a comment, please use email. To those who are Trump supporters, like many of our friends and neighbors, and are bothered by my comments, I respectfully suggest you find someone worthy of your admiration or, like me, just subscribe to what Ann Landers said, "At age 20, we worry about what others think of us. At age 40, we don't care what they think of us. At age 60, we discover they haven't been thinking of us at all." I would add that at age 80, we're just happy that we can have concerns about any of this.

By the way, the pictures are me at 20 and 80.

Regarding security... Given that the site is getting 60 visits a day and that some of them are internet morons and knucle draggers, I've decided to password protect the Onedrive pictures and videos. Let me know if you need access.  I've also edited other links on the site to limit access to a particular video or photo album.

Regarding cellphones... I've tried to make it easy to use the site on a cellphone, but there's no getting around the fact that there is less screen space on a cellphone. If you typically use a cellphone to access this website, you might want to add it to your homepage. Just use Safari to open www.Fingerboard-Productions.com, tap the share icon (the box with the up arrow), scroll down to the bottom, and select "add to home screen".
