Some have taken to the web, and have blogs of their own.  If you look in my sidebar you&#8217;ll see a section labeled &#8220;Blogroll&#8221;.  This is where you can find links to their pages.<\/p>\n<p>But who are these people, you ask?  I&#8217;m glad you asked!  Let&#8217;s go down my list, shall we?<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/themisanthropeblog.com\/\">Austin<\/a> was a punk-ass, teenage kid when I met him.  In fact, I don&#8217;t think I liked him much at all at first.  <a href=\"http:\/\/www.teebiss.com\/photoalbums\/july4th_2003\/slides\/Guybrush%20Threepwood.jpg\">But hey, he was 15 years old<\/a> and I was 25.  He probably didn&#8217;t like me, either.  <a href=\"http:\/\/www.solarnavigator.net\/films_movies_actors\/film_images\/Austin_Danger_Powers_Mike_Myers.jpg\">But now Austin is a man (baby, yeah!)<\/a>.  He lives in SoCal, born and raised.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.awfulmonkey.com\/\">Bill<\/a> is a damn coastie.  He joined the Coast Guard a few years back.  After his tour of duty in Kodiak Island, Alaska he up and moved on to Hawaii.  He&#8217;s a sailor of the seven seas.  A young man with a dream.  And that dream?  <a href=\"http:\/\/www.awfulmonkey.com\/images\/russkie.jpg\">To grow mustaches and wear funny hats.<\/a>  And <a href=\"http:\/\/www.awfulmonkey.com\/images\/SD14.jpg\">drink in Irish pubs.<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.catpong.com\/\">Corey<\/a> is the coolest motherfucker you&#8217;ll ever meet.  <a href=\"http:\/\/www.snowcrash.org\/buckshot\/images\/the_mayor.jpg\">He&#8217;s also the mayor of Belmont Shore.<\/a>  OK, not really.  But he is a shoe-shufflin&#8217;, hustlin&#8217;, movin&#8217; and groovin&#8217; Lord of the Dance.  He&#8217;s been a video game tester, a video game designer\/developer, a fiber-optic guru, and PC god.<\/p>\n<p>Corey has a gal, this gal named Gina.  <a href=\"http:\/\/coreyandgina.com\/\">Put the two of them together<\/a> and they ooze crazysexycool.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/drinkinwithdave.com\/wordpress\/\">Dave<\/a> is one of my oldest and bestest friends.  We met in my first class on the first day of my first day of high school.  And he hasn&#8217;t been able to shake me since.  Although he did recently move to Hawaii.  I miss him terribly, but am soooo happy that my friend has found peace in his paradise.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/dawnna.wordpress.com\/\">Dawna<\/a> is a friend from high school that doesn&#8217;t update her blog any more!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/laineybird.com\/\">Lainey<\/a> is the coolest chick on Earth.  We met through <a href=\"http:\/\/www.teebiss.com\/images\/jandonrum03.jpg\">mutual friends<\/a> up in good ol&#8217; Chico.  She&#8217;s a techie and a dreamer and a smart gal.  She moved to Australia a few years ago and married a great guy, and now they are Two Birds and have adventures Down Under.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/midnight.livejournal.com\/\">Mark (Midnight)<\/a> doesn&#8217;t update his blog any more, either!  We met at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.beatdown2000.com\/archives.shtml\">PlanetQuake&#8217;s Beatdowns<\/a>.  Throughout the years we&#8217;ve always managed to meet up together in what ever online game we happen to be playing at the moment.  Last I checked he still lives in SoCal and still works for Cisco.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.livejournal.com\/users\/smittyhalibut\/\">Mark (Smitty)<\/a> is the Godfather of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.snowcrash.org\/chat\/\">Snow Crash.<\/a>  If he weren&#8217;t for Mark and his generosity, linux prowess, and all-around tech god-ness I wouldn&#8217;t have half the friends and\/or experiences that I have today.  Mark lives in SLO still (I think).<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.livejournal.com\/users\/scdemandred\/\">Owen <\/a>= meme.  Loves baseball and cats and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pro-rock.com\/\">Clutch<\/a>.  He drinks Jack and Coke and listens to <a href=\"http:\/\/311.com\/\">311<\/a>.  At least, he used to anyway.  Bay Area born and raised, but relocated to SoCal.  Temporarily.  He&#8217;ll be back, oh yes he will.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/pokysharpy.blogspot.com\/\">Phil.<\/a>  What can be said about Phil?  He&#8217;s part <a href=\"http:\/\/www.snowcrash.org\/usickmonkies\/\">Smade<\/a>.  He <a href=\"http:\/\/www.teebiss.com\/images\/philmonkey.jpg\">loves monkeys.<\/a>  He drives an hour and half, sometimes more, to get to work each day in stop and go traffic.  <a href=\"http:\/\/poky-sharpy.livejournal.com\/\">He is a music snob<\/a> but I mean that in a good way.  <a href=\"http:\/\/www.snowcrash.org\/fade\/scfest2k\/images\/eaglescoutfade.jpg\">Phil is my favorite victim.<\/a>  I love this guy.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/opentil12.livejournal.com\/\">Sierra<\/a> lives in Chico and I&#8217;m jealous.  She rarely updates her blog.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/stefcoleman.blogspot.com\/\">Stef<\/a> is my surf cuz.  She had a child last year and stopped blogging.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ocgirlinaz.blogspot.com\/\">Vanessa<\/a> is a SoCal girl that met <a href=\"http:\/\/hosted.planetquake.gamespy.com\/beatdown\/bd18site\/bd18wrapup\/tetsuobig.jpg\">Tet-motherfucking-suo<\/a> and moved to Arizona, because she loves him *that* much.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/pak9.com\/vito\/\">Vito<\/a> is an old PlanetQuake Beatdown veteran as well.  He has my dream job, senior UNIX systems administrator\/analyst.  Pak!<\/p>\n<p>So that&#8217;s all I got.  If you have a blog and you&#8217;re not listed here, let me know and I&#8217;ll give ya a plug!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My friends are a lively, interesting, and amusing bunch.
