Seek the Wolf in Thyself!
General info about me/my life/my web
I had a strange series of events happen the other day. For my series on The Gamer’s Codex, called B-Movie Inspirations, I have to find and watch really bad B-movies and find inspiration for RPGs plot in them. I do realize there are only really a fixed set of abstract plots most RPGs can explore. But…
Looking back, I realized that I wrote a short something about the first cruise I went on. This being my second, I thought I should. Because this cruise was also a “Club MACE” cruise, there was a gaming aspect to it, but I covered that part in my Gamer’s Codex review. The cruise was leaving from…
I am devastated by the loss of one of my best friends from high school. He was one of the guys that introduced me into gaming and everything else geek. Jim McCrystal Sr. died in a car wreck a few hours ago. Too soon, my brother. He was a good man, a man of honor…
Many times I question the decision, because it was not an easy decision to make. I am glad I had someone else with me to make that decision – my wife is my rock. You should not make decisions selfishly. You should always consider other people, primarily those that you love and most especially your…

May 23 2012, my friend John Reavis passed away due to a sudden heart attack. He was a good friend, honorable man, and an imaginative person. He was also somewhat of a mystery to a lot of his friends as he was very private and kept to himself. But we all cared about him deeply,…
I had a crazy and intense dream last night that was very vivid and emmersive. This was obviously spurred on by recent senseless riots in Britain, along with the economic stuff going on here, and the ever present terrorist threat that we are all still paranoid about. (who said the terrorists didn’t win?) I was…
Did not know they had this… kinda cool!
This is how my mind while it sleeps acts sometimes… I had this very complex dream that was sort of a combination of Da Vinci Code and National Treasure, where someone had found out that everything after WWII was part of a grand scheme or plan that all the powers signed on to in a…
