My Blog Links
You have noticed I've added links to some blogs. OK, why are they here?
Rob Barry: I've known him since he was a kid --- thought he probably wishes I hadn't said that. We 'met' I suppose, when he found my BBS. But my first encounter with Rob was when he asked me to help him with a programming project he was toying with. Once, I faxed him answers to his homework. He's what we call a 'net' friend because we've never officially met -- though I did run into him at a Heat game many years ago. His blog is rather random but I don't mean that in a bad way.
Wil Wheaton: AKA Wesley Crusher. His blog is cool and he seems to be a decent person. It proves sometimes you can be wrong about someone. Wil is not Wesley. Read his books, ok? Read his blog. I wish I were his friend.
Dave Barry: He's been making my laugh nearly my entire life. What more can you say? People ask if Dave is my friend. It's a nosey-ass question, don't you think? Dave knows who I am and would recognize my name. I know who Dave is. We've met a few times. I've not been to his house and he's not been to mine. His blog is listed because it'll make you laugh even though it's mostly judi who makes the posts.
Ernest Reardon: He's another 'net' friend. He's a talented photographer, BTW. He's here because his blog is so real life. Read it and you'll see what I mean. His blog is like Wheaton's without the celebrities.
Neil Gaiman: I'm a fan. He's an amazing writer and his blog can be quite interesting.

Ah, but here's the real question: what was the homework assignment?
It was some computer class thing. I had to find some page in some manual and fax it you along with an explanation. It was something in BASIC, if I recollect. Other than that, I can't remember.
I do remember when you and your friend Gian did something with a BB Gun and you called me and asked me what you should do :) [Leaving out the details of course]
Oh man -- well the computer class wasn't a class, because I never took a computer class -- just being a nerd I suppose. As for the BB gun, I can't believe I called you about that! I remember the incident very clearly. It all started when Gian thought it would be a good idea to point the gun towards the house and pull the trigger... and there were a lot of windows on that house. Gian briefly had a stint as a pizza delivery man after graduating from college -- then he shipped out to New York, and right now I believe he's living on a couch in San Francisco. What a life!
Well, you asked me what you should do 'cause he shot a hole in a window. You said your dad had specifically told you not to play with it -- of course that's probably what made you want to. I told you to own up to it.
I do remember the fax was a whole thing about saving data to a disk. Maybe it wasn't a class but Tropical BBS. Remember that? I know there was a whole thing on trying to save data and then read it back. Again, the details are foggy.
Ah well. Still memories of the past.
