Mission Statement-resources
Hmm, did a lot of what I think, little of who I am. I am a 37 year old white male, [using medicalspeak], gay, living in a medium sized city in Texas. I read lots of sci-fi/fantasy, preferring "soft" sci-fi to "hard" sci-fi. I went to medical school, but am not currently working as a doc. I came to the conscious realization that I was gay about 3-4 years ago. I am not nor have I ever been in a serious relationship with another man. I am out to my immediate family and close friends; I think my sexual tendencies are not anyone else's business. [There may be a better way to put that, I'll have to brood]. Anyway. I am generally bored with most sports, although watching wresting [scripted, not unscripted] with a couple of friends was fun for a while. I tend to use profanity in situations in which I think it will be useful [sometimes nothing else has the impact]. While I wish we had a useful space program, I know too many people who work/worked in the area to think that NASA is such. I was raised Methodist. I have been considering rejoining, although I will not attend church in any denomination that thinks I am automatically damned for being who I am. I like computer roleplaying and turn based strategy games. I have tried a few real time strategy games, with little success. Currently I play mostly Diablo 2; I have thought about joining a MMORG, most likely City of Heroes, Star Wars, or World of Warcraft once it comes out. So, lots of time to blog. How much inspiration will strike.... who knows.

In reverse order:I havn't played KOTR, even though it does look cool, because (1)I have a couple of games I have started but not finished (2)I don't have an Xbox, and I havn't seen reviews on how good the import to the PC is (3) the game was good enough that it was taking a while for the price to drop, and I hate paying full price for a game.

Yeah, some people are working on privately getting into space. Unfortunately, it isn't going to happen quickly enough either to save a friend's career [ie, he hates stupid paperwork even though he is good at it] nor will it get me into space during my lifetime [and I don't care if a fraction of my ashes make it to low earth orbit]. Aliens kidnapping me seems to be more likely than human based space tourism in the next century.
