Yes, I wrote about Greg Page saying goodbye to The Wiggles. However, I must say a goodbye also. Yes, I am leaving Families.com -- at least for a while. I took a job as an event coordinator for a company that works with children's charities. I think it is a good career move for me.

1991 brought on the start of the grunge music scene, as well as Oscars for Anthony Hopkins and Jodie Foster for "The Silence of the Lambs." EuroDisney opened in Paris in 1992, bringing the fun of a Disney park to Europe. And lucky for those of us with Families.
