| Steve Blechman |
Steve and I go all the way back to elementary school (summer school,
actually). We both lived on the East Coast for a while before moving back
home to CA. Now he has moved back to the East again. I hope this doesn't
mean I have to do that, too! <grin>. |
| Rod Bartlett |
I met Rod through the aforementioned Holy Grail BBS, and we
became fast friends. I was even best man at his wedding! His home page
is even sillier than mine, but that's fine by me. |
| Martin Walser |
I've known Martin since he was a teenager who used to call my BBS.
Now he's finally graduated from college and has a job. He's a
Deadhead, a SCUBA diver, and just a mellow dude. He plays in a band now, called Fishtank Diver, which at least has a cool name. |
| David Schuetz |
Another of my old BBS friends. His home page is seriously frame-enhanced,
but for some reason it looks strange on my system. |
| Skippy the Kilt-Lifter |
Yet another fine fellow I've known since, oh, about the late
Pleistocene period, I think. How can one explain him? I believe he has
memorized every word Monty Python ever uttered. Of course, now he fancies
himself a musician and composer, but we all know better. But he does have a web site for his music. |
| Denny Rodgers |
Yet another of the fine folks I've met through the old BBS crowd. Now
he has a very humorous home page. |
| Kristina Baumler |
Kristina was another of the frequent visitors to my old BBS. Now she
does web pages for a living. Dangerous stuff, this.... She also does great fundraising for the American Cancer Society, through their Relay For Life, which is a great thing! |
| Craig Allen |
It's actually a home page now, not just an FTP site. And you can
still get the instructions for building your own yurt. Beware the Celtic
Mongols! |
| Laura Goodin |
Yet another of my old D.C. crowd, now living Down Under and
teaching self-defense! |
| Jon Shemitz |
I met Jon because we were both running BBSes in Santa Cruz, CA, a few
years back. And we played poker with a group of other computer geeks
every month. Jon's OK, because he likes Pascal. And his book on Kylix is really good. Highly recommended. |
| Sue Hobbs |
Friend? Well, sure. She also happens to be my sister.
Sue's only recently gotten hooked on the 'Net. It's nice
to not be the only computer nerd in the family anymore! |
| Kevin Driscoll |
Kevin and I met at Borland International, and later he was my boss
at Netscape. Good guy, a drummer, and a fan of Tower of Power. |
| Terry Ridgway and Kelly
Harrison |
Kelly and I also met when we worked at Borland, and she was instrumental in getting me to follow her to Netscape. She and her husband are among our dive buddies. |
| boB Arnson |
Yes, yet another of my old Borland coworkers. He's sort of gone over
to the Dark Side (i.e., marketing) now, but he's still a great guy. |
| Bob Simpson |
Another Bob and another ex-Borlander. He's got some really hilarious stuff on his site. |
| Danny Thorpe |
I worked with Danny at Borland, and now he's got a sideline going with his photography. Some of it's just incredible! |
| Linda and Dana Jeffries |
Linda and Dana and I all worked at Borland. Linda and I worked closely for many years. Dana finally gave up the tech business to pursue his love of geology, and now they've both jumped in with both feet (and a camera)! |
| Darren Hardy |
In a variation on the theme, Darren and I worked together at Netscape, but he, too, is doing cool things with photography. |
| David Gallagher and Brady Lea |
They sit right in front of me at San Francisco Giants games, so we've become friends. |
