FAMILY FORESTS
I am David Edward Rodgers, the second son of
William John Rodgers and Esther Hodge of
Winnipeg, Manitoba, then Montreal, Quebec
then Atlanta, Georgia, and lastly Oakville, Ontario.
May they rest in peace.
I am a Baby boomer that has recently retired from working for
other people and am now working on things I enjoy.
I have been blessed to have a career in many things
creative such as actor, writer, sportscaster, cameraman,
newsman, announcer, producer, scriptwriter, graphic
designer, salesperson, pitchman, madman, app developer,
consultant, creative director, entrepreneur, etc.
Basically, a Jack of all trades.
So here we are with more than enough time on our hands.
I am not into watching TV and movies. I like making them.
I love music and put extra effort into all my audio efforts.
I am one to spend a few hours fooling around with pics in
Photoshop, videos in Movie Maker, free web stuff in Wix,
words in Word, and packing PowerPoints.
Send me your pics & type me your tall tales!
Ask me for advice on taking pics! Let me show you easy ways
to deal with all things digital. Over the years, I have taught
hundreds of people about computers, graphics, video, audio,
sales, sponsorships, and more.
Ask me your questions and I will endeavor to get the best answer.
This website will be an ever-changing experience for all of us to enjoy!
Yours truly, Dave

Finding Your Roots with Henry Louis Gates, Jr. is a documentary television series that premiered on March 25, 2012, on PBS.
In each episode, celebrities are presented with a "book of life" that is compiled with information researched by professional genealogists that allow them to view their ancestral histories, learn about familial connections and discover secrets about their lineage.
Let's build a
FAMILY TREE
We can build a family tree which simply is a chart of our lineages, tracing relationships to common ancestors.
Visually similar to an org chart, this diagram is shaped like a tree structure starting with one individual as the root.
From the root, lines representing branches terminate in boxes representing leaves. Each leaf represents you, me, our parents, siblings, aunts, and uncles, cousins, etc. with additional information such as birth, marriage, and death dates.
Let’s start with Jim Rodgers and fill in the blanks.
Email me your list to tadaglobalcompany@gmail.com
and I will grow our family tree.

I recieved a special package. Fred had sent the orignal photo of Anne Morrison above and
I then colourized it with spectacular results.
Don't you agree?

This is a welcome WOW on a rainy day in SC! Hope all is well up north. We are trying to adjust to a new President who has a Twitter account but does not care to use it!

Lazy Sunday here. Your tweeting mention made me think of one of my favourite print ads centering around our fathers and whether or not they tweezed anything. All I did was cover over the Z with T and voila...

This was my Dad’s rye of choice and not surprisingly, mine too. Living in the Deep South has “forced” me to appreciate all the varieties of fine whiskey that is made here. I’m slowly (one sip at a time) building my collection of favorites...
Keep it coming!
