Welcome.

    SUPPOSE YOU ARE WONDERING why this page is titled "Wild Willie" and not my proper name. Well, to let you in on a family secret, this nickname was something my sisters called me while I still lived at home many years ago and I came to like it. They still call me Wild Willie and in the spirit of frivolity here, this name fits well.  
     
    My partner and I are vitally interested in a few very important issues of the day. We have recreational interests that we like to talk about and discuss with others. We collect antiques, from Empire furniture of the late 1800s to Arts & Crafts era pottery to deco designs of the 1940s. We like to evangelize. We have talent and a domain for displaying it. The potentials offered to us by the Internet are boundless when it comes to presenting our thoughts to as broad or narrow an audience as may be present for any number of reasons. Spend a moment and look around. You might find your interest piqued or your appetite whetted. You may just pass through after finding one link that pleases you. You may even wish you never arrived. One thing I can assure you is our attempt to educate is genuine and our efforts certainly please us, if no other.
