Jim Leonard stated: Lee K. Seitz wrote: I look like this: http://home.hiwaay.net/~lkseitz/images/lks1.jpg Oh good grief. :) Like I wrote earlier, some people want control over how they look. Just to explain, that picture was taken by my wife while I was spray painting some furniture for our soon-to-be-born (at the time) son's room. I like it because I'm wearing the hat (to keep the sun off), sunglasses (for the sun again), and mask (for the paint fumes), resulting in a photo of me that's completely unhelpful (beyond establishing me as a skinny male caucasian). There's more unhelpful pictures of me at http://home.hiwaay.net/~lkseitz/family/Walter/p_yr1b.shtml. 8) You can actually find some better pictures of me if you browse around Walter his brother's woefully unupdated sites, but I'm gonna make you guys dig. I had a page up with details on myself, but after some unknown individual started signing me up for spam and magazine subscriptions, plus sending e-mail in my name to congressmen saying I was for the legalization of marijuana, I took it down. (However, this page had the picture I initially posted on it, too.) The page didn't have any personal info beyond my city and state, but that's enough to find my full address when you've got a surname like Seitz in the U.S. The perpetrator had used that info to also figure out and send spam to my work e-mail address, which before that was fairly pristine. We *all* collect software, so it's not like some of us are bigger geeks than the others :-D Am too! 8) Well, we can always make fun of the people collecting AOL disks.

Come on everyone, 'fess up some
geek (gaming related) acts you've committed, typical of a "you know you're a
gaming/game collecting geek when..." guide :) I'll start: Last time I got a cellphone I asked for
858462 (ULTIMA) on its number. Since it wasn't available, went for 282827
(AVATAR). Didn't have either, unfortunately :) Anyway since the new cellphone gives me the possibility
to write sheet music, I've spent hours writing and perfecting Stones (most
famous Ultima tune) on it. Who's
next? ;) --Pedro R.
