This is me in Grade 6, baby.

Mike G (with the master plan) writes today requesting I post something from my fevered imagination soon. I like getting requests. Nice to know people look forward to the posts. And I'm conscious of the need to get back to supplying the good stuff. calamityjon un-Friended me during the long drought of posts while I was finishing the dissertation, and he tried to be kind about it, but it cut me, it really did. )Sniff.( He still remains my sketchbook hero. Some day I'm going to commission him to draw some hot Frankenstein on Tin Man manloving for head58's birthday or something.

Anyway, consider me on it, Mike. But I'm off to Maine for a conference in just about an hour, so you'll have to be patient a little longer. I did just write a long post about Lexicons for the 20' By 20' Room, but it's not particularly fevered. You could always reread an underappreciated rerun like the Mr. T/Darth Vader post or the birthday message mashup to my Dad, Gamma Fodder, and Keith Richards. Or how about this: When I posted the much-loved 1980s D&D club picture, I admitted it would only be fair to post pictures of myself from the same era. I give you Mister Lister's "Gifted and/or Talented" Grade 5/6 Class, 1982-83. Spot two members of my Friends list and win a prize!
