The first of my many rants is now online.  This one is about Online Gaming.  My future rants will include the "new" Battletech, computer game development, the 9/11 attacks (maybe), software piracy, Sci-Fi TV shows, and the quality of computer porn (well, maybe not that last one.) Playing games over the Internet is a fairly new innovation.  It originated from [...]

I wrote a story that I want to make into a Neverwinter Nights mod, la-de-da.  It's part of my new strategy, as to landing a decent job... maybe.  Unfortunately, this game won't be out until spring (*praying*), so I have no idea if it's even possible for me to create this mod.  We'll see...

Well, it seems everything is slowly getting back to normal here in the U.S. (no more round-the-clock news coverage.)  Anyway, due to recent events, I don't believe I will be able to make the movie that I mentioned below.  Primarily, because it involves a city and two airplanes (a very, very bad combination at the moment), so I'm guessing that [...]

Black Tuesday indeed.  I hope they get the guy that masterminded it, and he knows who he is!  If you don't know what I'm talking about, then you need to stop hanging around "Ted's Pitiful Homepage" and check out MSNBC or CNN or just turn on the television.

This is an attempt I made at a floor plan for a tabletop run of D&D. It only consists of two floors of an inn and a relatively linear dungeon. I was inspired to make this while playing Baldur's Gate. This was made in Photoshop, and I have never used this in any practical manner. The Severed Hand Inn Map [...]

I have been playing and witnessing the evolution of computer/video games for most of my life now.  I can still remember the days of playing black and white (actually green) games on my old Apple IIe.  And since then we have come a really long way in the video game evolution. Ultima This has to be one of the greatest [...]

I've only been playing pen & paper games for around 10 years now.  D&D was the first one that I was exposed to... actually it might have been Monopoly now that I think of it... or Clue even. BattleTech I probably have more money invested into this game than any other.  It really is an amazing game with the level [...]

You can find the complete list of Metallica's albums, songs and videos here.  Some out-of-print albums can be found on eBay, while the rest should be available on Amazon. Metal Massacre (6/14/1982) Hit the Lights No Life Till Leather (7/6/1982) ** Motorbreath The Mechanix Jump In The Fire Seek & Destroy Phantom Lord Metal Militia Hit the Lights Kill 'em All (7/12/1983) Hit the Lights [...]

I created all of the graphics on this website, except for the horizontal rules, the bullets, and the rotating smiley face.  I also designed and created all of the movies and still images as well. The majority of the graphics on this page are heavily compressed, due to the lack of space provided by Roadrunner (I only get 5 megs, [...]
