Quick! Look away!! As if there wasn't enough cheese on this site.

   Hm. Suppose I should actually update this thing with recent information. Anyway, last time we checked in, I was in college, suffering through the insanity of the double major and wondering what was going to happen to me in regards to women. However, much has changed. I graduated from Penn State with a BS in Mathematics and another BS in Computer Science. I don't use either of those in my current job, but the diplomas look nice on my wall, at least. The girlfriend thing ended up sorting itself out, too.

   So, now I work for the Air Force. That's about all I can say about that without getting into too much trouble. Luckily, I still manage to garner some semblance of free time that I'm able to devote to keeping this site from imploding into itself. Hell, I've had entirely too many different jobs on this site - Editorialist, Roundtables Curator, Weekend Q&A; Host, Freelance Newsie, and now, Content Monkey. So if something's wrong with the site, it's probably because I was too occupied with videogaming or too lazy to notice. If stuff is right though, it's totally all me.

   I started playing RPGs back when Chrono Trigger came out. Sure, I played some Zelda before that, but CT was my first TRUE RPG. After that, it was a whirlwind of gaming until I met the love of my life, Xenogears. She still holds a giant place in my heart, though Xenosaga III managed to snare some of it away. Other than that, I love most S-E stuff, including Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest. TRPGs and ARPGs are great as well, and you'll usually catch me playing a level of Disgaea and the like here and there. I'm currently working on a giant backlog of RPGs, to include Digital Devil Saga 2, Okami, Puzzle Quest, Etrian Odyssey, Wild ARMs 4, Wild ARMs Alter Code: F, .hack, Devil Summoner, Romancing SaGa, and Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess. And that number will probably only grow as time passes.

   I'm a closet gamer. I love 'em, but I tend to maintain a wide variety of interests so that I can adapt to every different group of people I hang out with - the gamers and the non-gamers. I keep myself busy with Soccer, Running, Writing things that may potentially be novels if I actually get my ass in gear and finish them, Teaching myself Japanese, working on my MBA, Getting my CCNA/CCNP, and probably plenty of other things here and there.

   I'm pretty friendly, so if you ever have any questions about RPGs or anything, feel free to ask. You can usually catch me on IRC (when I'm not at work), and e-mail always works. Later!
