Tang,I also played Dungeons and Dragons while maintaining a firm grasp on Christianity, despite my parents fears that I was giving in to Satan.

Thanks for the good belly-laugh, my friend.

Where was tikifish during all this? I never, never ever saw any girls playing any role-playing games ever!

Wow, Tangaroa, another 6-degrees connection.

I was a Satanist in the '80s!
:wink:*(At least that's what you'd have called me. I played Dungeons and Dragons!)

No - my mother would have called you a satanist... With a father who worked part-time for Paul Crouch's Trinity Broadcasting Network (ask me stories about that sometime...), and grandparents that thought 'Bewitched' was a corrupting influence - let's just say that D & D was not too welcome at the Merritt house growing up... Once, my mother caught me bringing this home:

She told me, "The next time I see anything like that in our house, it's going in the GARBAGE DISPOSAL!!!!! So, C.S. Lewis is OK - but D & D isn't?????
Needless to say, the Motley Crue LP was well hidden at that point....

Anyway, Barker Bird - you will be glad to know that my first Maya project will be an Orc fighting a Beholder...
