My Creative World: JBC
JBC is a fictional world I developed back
in about 1979. JBC is a television network for kids, but it is so much
more: it includes politics, sports, crime, drama and adventure.
For an brief introduction to JBC read JBC for Dummies. (Not yet available will be
by 1/1/03)
For a more indepth look read A Brief History of JBC, Warning it's
long! (About 105 pages)
"Hello Tahra! This is my Web Page. I hope you like it. I am planning links to a lot of great sites." A quote from my first web page on gwis.edu in 1995.

Teams
Unofficial Cubs Home Page -Go SAMMY and the Cubbies! 2003 is their year!
White Sox Official Home Page -Poor Sox! 2002 does not look like their year. But they do have the Big Hurt!
Chicago Runners Official Home Page : A JBC Baseball team, the 1st Season 1987 World Series Champs. Read about the team of John Jodions and Jane Cortinson, James Crittington, and Barbara Mitton and even Jane Cortin and Kathy Johnson for a time. They had a bad season in 2002, but are ready for 2003!
Sorry That's it for the teams. I root for several other teams, but it's only the Cubs and the Sox, and of course the Runners, as far as I am concerned.
Football
Da Bears -2002 is their year! They can make the playoffs again!
Sorry, No Chicago Kickers page yet. But it should be up and running soon.
