Personal Miscellany
My User Name:
Once upon a time I was just wagners. Now I am wagners5. Why 5? Because Sandra, Sarah, and Stephanie are 1,3 and 4 respectively. What about wagners2? I think he/she/it was abducted by aliens.
My Middle Initial:
My middle initial is K for Kelly. About a century ago my great-grandfather Dennis Kelly was a fisherman in Ireland. One day he and his fellow fishermen were caught in a terrible storm. They had lost one of their companions a few weeks earlier in a similar storm and this time they thought they were all goners. However the ghost of their lost companion appeared and led them safely to shore. The experience rattled Dennis so much that he gave up fishing and fled to America.
My Brother's Music:
My brother Robert is a member of the New Orleans Klezmer All Stars . He plays the clarinet. My brother Michael is also a musician. Here is a song from his band Chappy, Floodwaters.
A Family Cat:
Ferocious looking, isn't she? Sadly, she has passed on. :(
My Evil Twin?:
When I was an undergrad I knew that there was another Stephen Wagner going to MSU because people used to call me up looking for him. Recently I learned that he was also a Stephen K Wagner. But what is even more bizarre is that our student numbers were off by only 2. How's that for a coincidence?
WaterFalls:
I like Waterfalls.
