Books
Don't make me list them. There're too many to keep track of. I'm a major R. A. Salvatore fan, and had the pleasure of meeting him a few years ago. I also credit myself for actually reading the Lord of the Rings and [original] Dune series. There's Harry Potter of course; why does it always take so long for the next book in the series to come out?!?!?! Ms. Rowling please write faster! ;P
About me: Just your average, run of the mill, psychotic bastard running free in the Detroit area. Nothing particularly special other than the fact that I'm a writer and programmer, have some pretty kick ass friends, and have worked at some interesting places. This is my micro-home page; my real one is at http://www.raymondrodgers.com/ and my true blog can be found there.
I may be a fool for hoping, but I'm hoping that you and I can Save Detroit.
Who I'd like to meet: I'd like to make friends just about everywhere. I'd also like to meet future coworkers: just about anyone that can help me get the hell out of my current job and into something I can enjoy! I tend to think of myself as a very friendly, if shy, person. If you want to drop me line to say "hi" please don't hesitate!
What a "DEAL!" darn I wish I had the money! But I'm saving up... I do hope to see you soon.... you take care and Keep Smiling.. Sending a GREAT BIGGGGGG HUG!!!!!!!!!!!!!
