My Friends and Family:
These are the people who make my life the happy place that it is.  If only everyone were as lucky as I am.  To have as many good friends as I do is truly a blessing.  I've not listed most of my family as of yet.  I'd like to get their permission first.  If you're not listed here, but think you should be, please send me an email.

Monkey Vision:
I got tired of having so many pictures missing.  So I've taken the liberty of finding monkey (or monkey like creatures) roughly fitting the personality of the friend's section, and putting that picture in as a place holder.  ENJOY! 

Mysti <Flame Kitten>
   Mysti is my wonderful, beautiful, tall, blonde wife.  She's also my best friend and we do all sorts of cheesey, super-fun things together.  Like adding smut to Little House on the Prairie, playing DnD and video games, watching movies, ripping on stupid people, and hanging out with our friends.  <Pictures> 

Mysti's great.  She puts up with me, my hardware obsessions, my messes, my sense of humor, and all my other annoying habits.  All nag free!  I'm so lucky.

When we're bored, we like to fly.  But sometimes we stab.
Jon (TaoLung) and Rachel
   Rachel doesn't have an alias yet, that I know of.  Jon has been my friend since middle school, and Rachel is his wife.  Mysti and I are always hanging out with them and doing fun things.  (Like DnD.)  We're just full of adventure...  Really.  Jon's an English genius (good thing, with the way I spell) and Rachel makes a living making the world a more beautiful place.  (It's true.)  What else can I say?  Everyone needs friends like this.  <Jon's Web Site>  <Pictures> <Photoshop Gallery>
Jason (Thaumatergist)
 		  Right up front, props to Jason for letting me host from his house.  Since Aaron's DSL went down due to Qwest's incompetence, I've been SOL.  Jason really helped me out and has been great about hosting me.

Jason is best described by my wife.  "A big teddy bear."   Jason is one of the only people I know who's passion for hardware almost exceeds my own.

On top of all this, he's somewhat of a modern philosopher and a lot of fun to talk to.  <See his web site>
Kimball (Boo, Gogyen...)Kimball as "Mortimer! The Demon Spirit of Corporate Corruption!" during Halloween 2002. Click for a larger image.   Kimball...  The happiest guy I know.  (I don't know Matt E. anymore really so he doesn't count.)  Kimball has a wealth of 8-bit video games and consoles.  (He inherited my old, first gen. Nintendo.)

Kimball now has a new love...  Melkior.  A Screeming computer we designed and built for him not to long ago.  LAN parties have become a joy since Melkior came into being.  (I'll see about posting specs for it in the hardware section.)  Boo's also known for his fine taste in music.  Especially Ska and Punk.  (Punk's not dead, it's just in a drug induced coma.)  So the next time you have something peppy on, skank a dance for Boo.
(Note he's gone by such aliases as Blackberry Boo, Chainsaw Vigilante, and "YOU ATE ALL THE PIZZA!?!")

John S. (Jonas)   John is what some would call a doodler.  He doodles Rembrandts whenever he's board.  :)  John's another Ska lovin' foo'.  In fact, him and Boo hang out quite often.  John has left us and gone to seek his fortunes in Arizona, but he keeps in touch.  (That's a hint, John.  FRIGGIN' EMAIL ME OR SOMETHING!)  John's also teaching himself guitar (he already plays piano.)  He's also boycotting footwear that requires socks.
Aaron M (Ash)
   All Hail Aaron, the Unix god!  Huzzah!  He he...  Aaron was kind enough to let me host this server on his DSL line, right up until it died.  (Now Jason's picked up that ball.)  He's also been nice enough to answer all my FreeBSD questions with only minimal ridicule and mocking. 

He also has a very cool collection of large board games, like Star Farers of Catan, Settlers of Catan, etc...  Very fun.

 <Aaron's web site>  <---Somewhat neglected at times.
(Picture and subtext are taken from his own web cam.  So he can't sue me, I think.)
Aaron G   Aaron Green, who I see all to infrequently, is a friend I met on the 3rd inner ring of hell.  (Convergys, MS Windows Project.)  He's even more of a DnD freak than I am.  (That's a good thing.)  Luckily, he's no longer working on the 3rd inner ring, he's found a much cooler and less pokey environment.

Aaron is also a very jolly guy.  Kinda like this monkey here.
Jenny   Jenny's is Mysti's (and my) good friend from high school (and before, for Mysti.)  BUT SHE NEVER CALLS!  That's ok though.  We love her anyway.  When she takes over the world, I hope she remembers us.  :)
Chester (Chaz)   Chaz is Myst's little brother.  We'd like to welcome him back to the Geek Side.  Though deprived of his once plentiful internet connection, Chaz is returning to his computer geek ways with authority.  Chaz (deemed the "spiffy spoofer" by me) is a creative, energetic, off the wall kid/teenager/young-adult/whatever.

We hope to see his hardware, coding, graphic design, web design, and networking skillz become "uber" over the next several years.  He has the potential.

He runs a Win XP box (Athlon on a VIA chipset.  Non-overclocked.)  ATI Rage card of some kind, 24x burner, etc...  We'll be hooking him up with a BSD box as soon as he makes an afternoon free to come over and put one together.  With the way that boy surfs, he's in desperate need of a firewall.

(I love that picture.)
Katye (Sex on Wheels)
 Katye is Jason's friend (and ours, of course).  Katye's a lot of fun.  She's like an energizer battery.  The fun lasts longer with her around to keep things moving.  She has that punk thing going, which is cool since punk is never really dead, it's just sleeping.  And she's much shorter than me, which I always kind of fun.  (I like to pretend I'm a giant come to terrorize a small village of short, helpless people from the 1980's who scream and yell when I come stomping through.  "Get thee out of our city, you prick!")  That's Katye.  (Alias courtesy of me.  She had to be named something at the last LAN party and it just sort of stuck.)
