Old CW's Germfree Clan

Hi IRL my name is Jim and I currently live in Ottawa, Canada (the town that fun forgot). I am (as of writing this) a 48 year old single parent with two now adult daughters aged 20 and 18. Both are gamers but neither plays KoL, go figure. I am a big fan of RPGs (the games, not the weapons) of all forms and have been playing since I was a young teen (I have a particular weak spot for JRPG video games). I've apparently been playing KoL since about 8 months before I moved back to Canada from where I was working in North Carolina, USA (2009). After a "fun-filled" 25-year long career doing high-technology and project management thingies internationally, I walked away from it all and have been a full time undergraduate starving student at Carleton University since 2009 (my first time going to a post-secondary institution). I'm a bit slow at it with everything I have going on (and my brain isn't as spry as it once was), but I expect to graduate in two years with honours degrees in both Theoretical Physics and Feminist Studies (trying to fire both sides of my brain at once). I am also a private pilot, inventor, amateur musician, and I have a weekly radio show on CKCU called "The Dollar Bin" where I play music I have randomly found in dollar bins (must be $3 or less for sale in a retail store), almost all of which I had never heard before, by bands I didn't know: http://cod.ckcufm.com/programs/371/info.html. You can play my shows "on demand" or hear them streaming live if you "tune in" over the 'net (if you're actually in Ottawa or environs, tune in to 93.1FM). I blog publicly at http://pheloniusfriar.dreamwidth.org/ if you want to go full Internet stalker have any interest in my various ramblings. And yes, my handle is a jazz pun (I've been using it for my various online names since the late 1990s and use it on my radio show as well).
