God Bless America and Her Friends Webring
Welcome to James S. Huggins' Refrigerator Door
Welcome to my website.
This is a webring welcome page. I created this welcome page when I joined this webring to provide a special guide to my site for webring hoppers.
See the bottom of this page for an overview of how webring welcome pages work.
I hope that you enjoy your visit here. Feel free to sign my guestbook if you'd like to leave me a message or email me if you would prefer.
Comments for the God Bless America
and Her Friends Webring
To the families, relatives and friends of everyone killed or injured by the terrorist attacks, I extend my most sincere and heartfelt sympathies and condolences.
We grieve. We mourn. We move on. But we will never forget.
The United States of America is wealthy. We have many material things which the rest of the world does not. But our singular most precious possession is our freedom, our liberty, our ability to be, as individuals, free and independent beings.
If we permit terrorism to steal that, we have lost. If we trade our precious liberty for a little more safety, the terrorists have won.

Paul Revere, Lighting, Riding, Fighting and Other Thoughts:
Information on Paul Revere's Ride, including the facts, the poem, and some off-site links.
««»»
Paul Revere's Ride:
This poem, by William Wadsworth Longfellow, helped make Paul Revere's ride famous. However, the poem does not mention Dawes or Prescott.
««»»
The Midnight Ride of William Dawes:
In 1896 Helen F. Moore wrote this parody of Longfellow's poem and published it in Century Magazine. Of course, even this poem didn't get it completely right. Dr. Samuel Prescott still doesn't seem to have a poem.

The Price of Liberty:
On July 4, 1776 (give or take a day or two) 56 men pledged: "For the support of this declaration, with firm reliance on the protection of the divine providence, we mutually pledge to each other, our lives, our fortunes, and our sacred honor." Do you know who they were? What ultimately happened to them? What sacrifices they made?

What is a webring? Is it webring (one word) or web ring (two words)? Is it webring (no caps), Webring (initial cap) or WebRing (double caps)? How many webring systems are there? How
do webrings work? Why would someone want to join a webring? How does someone join

God Bless America and Her Friends Webring Controls
The master design of my "regular" pages restricts images, tables and webring controls to widths of 470 pixels. However, because the "standard" webring controls for this webring require more than 470 pixels, and because I want to honor the ringmaster and post the controls "unchanged", I have created a special page to hold the unmodified webring controls.
Click bere to go to the unmodified webring controls for the

News and Announcements

WebRing.com
Changes Big Time --- It was October 2001 that WebRing.com came into
existence following the end of Yahoo! Webring. Now, 5 years later, WebRing.com
is changing again. Moving from primarily a free service to primarily a paid
service, the system is undergoing massive change. Stay tuned.

|
|
Ringlink
Activity --- While
Ringlink has not released a new version
since
Version 3.2
on 21.Feb.2005, the system seems to be getting a lot of activity. Many people
are discovering this great webring system and moving their webrings here. If you
don't know about Ringlink,
definitely check out this great webring system. I personally recommend
it.

|
WoW
--- The World of Webrings features the World of Webrings discussion list. It offers a forum for both
webring owners (ringmasters) and webring members to discuss the latest hot topics about all webrings, including WebRing.com,
Ringlink
,
Alt-Webring, RingSurf, Bravenet and others. If you belong to any webring in any webring service, you should join this list.

RingSurf
Passes 3 Year Anniversary --- It was 3 years ago, on 16.Aug.2003 when the WoW list list noted that RingSurf's domain name registration had changed.
Then the new owner came forward. A RingSurf Feature List was developed and debated. Then, on Thanksgiving day, 27.Nov.2003 the new owner posted on the WoW list that the new RingSurf is up! If you haven't checked it out lately, see what has happened in the last three years.

Article About Webrings --- Check out this excellent Salon.com article about the history of Yahoo! and WebRing.com:
The Strange Saga of Yahoo and Webring
. For some, it will bring back memories. For others, it will explain the history.
Now, I wonder if they will update it to talk about the latest WebRing.com
changes.

Webrings: General Information
This subsection includes general information about webrings. Webrings can be hosted by a variety of different services. This section deals with the overall concepts and issues, not with any one particular "brand" of webring.
It includes my Webring FAQ, links to articles about webrings, and general help information. Click here or on the graphic.
The WebRing.com System
This subsection includes specific information about the WebRing.com system.
While not the only webring system on the net, it is the best known and the most used. I own many webrings in this system and belong to many webrings in this system. (I also own and belong to many webrings in other systems as well.) Click here or on the graphic.
The Wazillion Navbars Project
This subsection is a historical section about the Yahoo! WebRing system. It was begun during the early days of problems with the Yahoo! WebRing system in September 2000.
It ended when the Yahoo! WebRing system spun off into the independent WebRing.com system in October 2001. I maintain it for the historical record. Click here or on the graphic.
