LONG AGO, FAR AWAY

Been buried in D&D the past few days in preparation for July's game. Yes, I'm one of *those*. I've created a mini-site where the Party can go to warm up. Twenty years of hacking and slashing has created a tight-knit group.

Updated Holey Hunter this morning.

Dan's Stand up to service providers. Two words: Back Up.

Yea! Tomalak's Realm still up.

Knowledge Management—the hot topic de jour. Well, certainly the hot word in '99 maybe.

Nine Things About Me That Are True. And One That Isn't.

Some weblogs go down, some get filed under Too Fuckin Funny: Alan Greenspan's blog - A Greenspan Chronicle.

I've been procrastinating my job search and have been working on July's D&D game which is so much more important. But did find these medieval links:
