Re: [HOE] Re:Quick Poll: How Old Are You?

["Jason Adkins" <livingirony@hotmail.com>]

Actually, I started out in Battletech.  :)  Then I decided, blowin' shit up, 
was getting old.  So I looked around for other table top games, before 
finding my mom's aging D&D set, and from then on I was lost.  I could have 
had a nice new car, but I opted for one of the largest damn role playing 
collections in the NW.  :)  Mike?  Back me up here.
