Greetings
Welcome to my little corner of Wikipedia. My name is Pete and I hail from northern Indiana. Initally a casual Wiki reader, I became annoyed at the frequent spelling and grammar mistakes I would encounter. After reading a few pages with flat-out inaccuracies, I started making changes. One week and some twenty-odd edits later, I have a user page. Most of the time I correct grammar and vandalism, but on occasion I'll edit a page in depth when it pertains to a subject of interest to me, such as the commodore 64 game The Mars Saga (currently a work in progress, it's still a stub). I also spend time with the page for the television show Firefly, which I consider to be the greatest TV program of all time. I am an active browncoat, and I appeared in the documentary for firefly, Done the Impossible.
My interests are varied but include:
- Pen-and-Paper Role Playing Games
- Collecting and playing older video games, circa 1980-1994
- Tabletop Wargames
- Spreading political retoric for the Libertarian Party
- Listening to evil, horrible, conservative talk radio. Specifically Neal Boortz. I also support The Fair Tax
- astronomy
- Playing Cards
- Various books/Series: Frank Herbert's Dune, George R.R. Martin's A song of Ice and Fire series, Stephen Kings Dark Tower series (Books 1-4 only), and the glorious sci-fi libertarian novel starship troopers which is 1000% better than the crummy movie made from it.
- Graphic novels, specifically Vertigo comics sandman series and Dark Horse Comics reinvention of Conan
- Investing, Finance, and Free-Market Economics
