I will raise a book to Brian Thomsen.

I'm pretty much an open book.

Over the years, Forgotten Realms and gaming have taken me all over the world and made me all sorts of new friends.

Throughout life, one does not miss any chance to hold onto the things that are really precious, if one is truly wise.

When, who, and what things happen to becomes meaningful, then what happens starts to matter, and play can evoke strong emotions, fierce and ongoing urges to succeed, and a desire to leave a mark, drive meaningful change, or build lasting institutions.

I like humor: the sort of gentle humor that points out human foibles.
