I am a guy.
I have a lovely wife.
I have two great kids.
I'm a Sagittarius.
I was born in the Year of the Dragon, the hour of the
Rabbit.
I believe I have good luck (knock wood).
My hobbies, as you may have guessed are gaming and
reenacting.
I started gaming circa 1976.
The first game I owned, however, was PanzerBlitz, which my
parents bought for me a year or three before.
But I didn't learn it until after I had played D&D while
in middle school.
I was a huge Microgame fan back in the day: Ogre, Melee,
Wizard, Death Test, Warp War, you name it.
I have miniatures older than many of my co-workers.
I’m a Classic Traveller!
My name appears in GURPS books.
The beauty of gaming is it’s all about having fun sitting
around a table rolling dice with friends.
My parents had Pinochle; I have rpgs.
My interest in reenacting began sometime in the mid-70s,
when I saw some guys dressed up as Civil War soldiers while on a school
field
trip.
I also remember seeing a guy dressed up as a Revolutionary
War Marylander during the Bicentennial while I was a Boy Scout.
It was my sister, however, who got me into reenacting.
She worked with a guy who reenacted Vikings.
So there I was:
·
a Viking at age 15
·
a Skraeling at age 18
·
a RevWar soldier at age 26
·
a Roman at age 30
·
a Brit in the 15th Recce at age 35
·
a Pirate at age 40
·
and at age 45, a … ?
I’ve always been interested in history.
I’ve always been interested in science fiction.
I’m an artist, working in numbers and words.
If I haven’t mentioned it before, I also like to paint miniatures.
I am not a scientist.
Dogma is my enemy.
I like cheese.
