Welcome to Fingerboard-Productions.com.

I built this website to practice my website development skills but soon discovered it was an easy way to get to OneDrive and the Fingerboard collection of more than 60,000 photos and videos. Over time, I added family news, family trees, notable deeds, and a "spouting off" blog, which provided another outlet for my TDS (Trump Derangement Syndrome).

Churchill's once said (sarcasticlly), "These, Gentlemen, are the opinions on which I base my facts," and I admit to often falling into this trap, but not with Trump. I am convinced that there's ample evidence to establish beyond any reasonable doubt that he is a mortal threat to our democracy and should be voted out of office. If you have a different, well articulated opinion, submit it to me for publication.

Despite my occasional dogmatism in other subjects, and the fact that we have many Trump-backing friends, I am happy to own my opinions about him. As 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 still have worries, cares, and discoveries. 

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

Regarding security... I had been requiring a password to sign in, but I dropped it. The site is already restricted by only sharing its internet address with those who might have an interest in its content -- friends and family. In addition, I don't put anyone's personal or identifying information on the site or in any of its linked files.

Regarding cellphones... First, 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 on a cellphone. Second, if you typically use a cellphone to access the web, you might want to add the site to your cellphone's homepage, here's how. 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".

Send me an email: if you want to add or remove something or make a private comment. If you want to comment publicly on something I've written, there's a comment form at the end of each article.
