All you Zombies..

Or whatever y'all are. I have 100 people on my "Friend of" list, and to be honest, I don't recognize many of the names! So I'm curious..

1. Who are you? You don't have to give full names, but if I know you in passing in real life, please remind me.

2. How did you find my journal? Did I give you a card? Saw the link in a post I made somewhere? Did I scrawl it on your back at a convention?

3. If necessary, what's our connection? Do we both play Traveller? Listen to metal?

If you know for a fact that I know you by both names (like, say I've been married to you for twelve and a half years..) That list is fairly small, so if in doubt, go ahead and make and entry.

Mike/Michael/Miguel/You Bastard! (the last, usually by my players)

I followed [livejournal.com profile] cmdr_zoom here from his friends list.

3. If necessary, what's our connection? Do we both play Traveller? Listen to metal? You write CiaB's for Pyramid, to which I subscribed since Issue #1. You write Interesting Stuff that I gleefully steal and use to mess with my players heads, such as the aforementioned [livejournal.com profile] cmdr_zoom, [livejournal.com profile] pjack, [livejournal.com profile] naudiz, and [livejournal.com profile] sbloss (my better half). I used to play Traveller, and maybe will again someday, in the meantime, I just add the GURPS Traveller books to my Wall O' GURPS and snip and snag pieces for the games I do run. I don't listen to much metal anymore, but would heartily recommend you give Course of Empire a try, they rock.

Actually, that's Chad ([livejournal.com profile] chadu) Underkoffler. Sorry.

Heh, that wasn't even the connection I was going for with the title.. I was thinking of the Heinlein story in which thanks to time travel and gender reassignment surgery, one person is every character.

The story ends with "I know who I am, but who are all you zombies?"

While I immediately caught the Heinlein reference, I didn't even make the song connection until you responded.

"Yes, I scored poorly on the '80's Lyrics Quiz (http://www.yetanotherdot.com/asp/80s.html). Why do you ask?" ;-)
