I create web pages not to entertain, but to inform. I see web sites as data repositories, so here you will find a variety of media I have produced and collected over the years. Hopefully you'll find some interesting articles, useful programs, and helpful links on this site, and maybe learn a little about me at the same time.

On that note, here's some basic personal information. [Note that the vast majority of this site's content was created in 1998 and has not been updated since.]


Kenny G

I was born with an Apple II in one hand and an Atari 2600 in the other. In 1987, I watched the premiere of Star Trek: The Next Generation. In 1988, I was given an 8-bit Nintendo and a copy of R.A. Salvatore's first book, The Crystal Shard. I was active on the Apple II and Gamers Forums on CompuServe in the early Nineties, where I also played the MUD British Legends. From 1993 to 1997 I ran a pre-Internet dial-up BBS called "The Playground", which closed with about 20,000 calls. In 1996 I attended my first Electronic Entertainment Expo. In 1997 my hobby of writing became something more serious when I started a weekly column called "Gamebits" with my hometown's newspaper. I entered college that year to study computer science, but switched majors two years later to technical communications (a tech school's take on journalism). In high school, I sang in theater; in college, I sang in the glee club. In 1998 I attended my first KansasFest, and have been hooked ever since. This morning I had granola and yogurt for breakfast. I like genealogy, country music, daydreaming, thunderstorms, Quantum Leap, pineapple, Green Lantern, lost causes, Jimmy Stewart, bad jokes, and new ideas — not in that order.
