Ami's du Rusty, n'est pas? :)

Marco V. Ortiz. Magic Marco. The best best friend a guy could have.  Network admin extraordinare, Saturn lover, wonderful HUSBAND (oh my god...mawwiage!.....) to the lovely Nadia, and all around just A-1 guy. After you see his page, the only thing you'll think is: STUD!!!!!! :)

Eric Gardner. Good buddy, incredibly chivalrous knight, and an all around A-1 dude! One of the dudes who taught me how to *live* life, and at the same time, stay true to yourself. Eric is simply way cool.

Michael Scott Shappe. Uncle Mikey. (NOTE: Everyone's Uncle Mikey. Your Uncle Mikey. My Uncle Mikey. God's Uncle Mikey.....) The crazy fool who got me into the Minnesota hell[COUGH]mess, and the guy I really didn't want to leave when I made the drive back out West.

Rob Payne. (Actually, this site is for Rob, his wife Suzanne, and their lovely daughter, Grace!) This man taught me more about beer than I thought I knew, and can actually be trusted somewhat on a computer. :) (Why? Because he's a GeekOfHighCaliber(TM), that's why. :))

Chris Manly. Chester to his friends. Father to the lovely Madeline Manly. Husband to the gorgeous Celisa Mettler Manly. Owner of the picturesque Samoyed Naya. Resident Cornell Uber-Geek. Ask him about me, macaroni and cheese. :)

Jeffrey Anbinder. Beeeej. The Beeeejinator. He rides, he sings, he writes...Sheesh! Way, way, wayyyyyyy Too talented for me. :) (and - did I mention he can cook a mean meal for a bevy of Beautiful Women? That's our Beeeej.)

Mark Anbinder. Markus Ambindricus. He who coined the term Rustard. Master of the blink. Macintosh Avatar. The one who taught me to make the best of any situation you find yourself in. (Or, place for that matter).

Richard Kinne. The Doc. Trek Geek unparalled. One of those cool dudes still in Upstate NY. This is the man who, when I thought I could geek out *no* more, taught me just how low I was on the Geek totem pole. Doc is way cool.

Michelle Mogil. Another one of those cool people that remain in Upstate NY, and should be teleported, with husband and lovely children, HERE. Amazing wit, Charming smile, and master juggler of children. Wow. :)

JP Brannan. CU buddy, who games more than anyone should. 'Course, he's real good at it. Ask him about, me, a beer, and a mandarin orange. (NOTE: Do not ask him about cars, or more specifically, how one received a sizable dent..........)

Lisa Fogelman. Sskip to all her friends. Babe of babes, and a damn good person, too. Lisa recently moved back to Ithaca - yet another reason to go visit sooner, rather than later.....

Jeff Lee. An old CU and Fraternity Buddy (GO SCD!), Jeff is just one of those cool people in life. This a guy who just excels at everything he does, and taught me an amazing word: Perseverance. (NOTE: Link is currently not working...)

Hugh Yeman. Another old Fraternity Buddy, he taught me how to live life in a tree. And love it. His page rivals mine for wackiness (and vocabulary), so I suggest you check it out!

Rob and Cassie Baldassano. Rob and Cass are SCA friends who took me in and helped me find my feet when I *first* moved to the California land. They are great folks, and invaluable friends. Rob, by the way, is an immortal. :):):) (NOTE: Link is currently not working...)

Jennifer Sternfeld. In my part time role as Yenta for everyone but myself, I matched her and an old friend Jon up, completely by accident (and, over the Internet to boot! :)) She's quite a nut, and knows a hoot load about rocks. :) (Don't even take that anywhere, hear? :))

(NOTE: Link is currently not working...)

Warren Chang. Warren (along with Marco, Max, Jon and myself) are part of an elite anti-high school terrorist team named Hunter Tabernacle Choir. Our mission (back then): Have a good time, and play a lot of bridge! An awesome guy, with an awesome wife, Tina Sormani, and children (WAHOO!!!!), Tabitha and Penelope.

Cynthia Virtue. Cynthia is a wonderful close friend who I met first in Boston, and then I re-met here in CA, and now she's back out in the Pennsylvania area with her lovely husband, John. She does SCA, too - she's been one of my motivating factors in the organization for many years! :)

Pat McGregor. Pat, much like Cynthia (so much so, that Pat is Cynthia's Liegewoman) is in the SCA, and one of my current motivating factors. She's just an awesome rockin' person all the way around, and that is too much of a good thing.

Chad Schwein. Chad is just cool. How can a man who doesn't talk much have the best facial expressions that ever exist? I dunno - you ask him. We like him. Someday, we might even play MechWarrior: Dark Age, even.

Deidre McGaffey. Dee is as sweet as Chad is laconic. While not *exactly* attached to Chad at the hip, they do happily orbit each other. While I don't know if she likes MechWarrior, she does like gaming and theater. All of these things enhance her 'way cool' ness! ;)
