The Dog House

(The Grodog's Corner on the Sanity Market)

Here is where you can learn more about your host, The Grodog, than most sane  people would ever want to know.  You can:

Learn About the Grodog

• read my "current" bio, to troll through the daily events in my life; in an effort to actually put the bios into some semblacne of order, my previous bios follow chronologically, and you could get a clue as to what's been up in my life over the past several years (or at least when I was keeping the bios up-to-date, which really varied from time-to-time):

• check out some pictures of me (and Heather, too) 

• contact the Grodog! via email, pager, phone, US Postal Service, etc.

The Grodog's Favorite Art

• read poems and essays authored by the Grodog

• glance through the over-burdened bookshelves that line my apartment walls; I should probably buy another one or two soon, but still maintain the vague hope that I'll actually sell off some of the things (you know, the ones not worth keeping:  Conrad, Dickens, etc.)
  
  (note that the bookshelf contents would certainly differ from the Grodog's interest in all things literary, just in case that wasn't clear)

• browse through my current tunes of note:  a smattering of stuff from my music collection; some of these groups are new to me, others are one's I've not listened to in awhile

• I worship at the feet (and big ones they are) of J. Michael Straczynski, creator of Babylon 5.  Perhaps you should too?  You can also read the B5 moderated newsgroup at mailgate.org, or peruse JMS' latest writing efforts at an excellent fan site (or Joe's Comic's, once he gets the site up and running)

• the Grodog doesn't have much set up yet for visual art, but will get around to it some day:
  • I check out movies as they catch my eye, so feel free to read through my opinions on the latest assaults from Hollywood upon my retinas
  • Favorite visual artists:
    • Roger Dean
    • Bob Giadrosich
    • H. R. Giger
    • Robert Gould
    • Li Zhong Liang
    • Michael Parkes
    • Rembrandt van Rijn
    • Michael Whelan

Play with the Grodog

• the Grodog plays many games:  role-playing games, card games, board games, etc. 

• roam the sciences with the Grodog:  I've been interested in several branches of the sciences since I was a wee lad, and have been collecting interesting links, so enjoy!
  • things astronomical and spacey (black holes, quasars, the red shift, relativity, etc.)
  • things geological (including earthquakes, volcanoes, etc.)
  • on all things viral and contagious
  • hey, how's the weather?  

• of equal import is the spurrious logic side of science (all about Jack the Ripper, Oak Island, The Winchester Mystery House, etc.); Ken Hite is really the red-headed stepchild of this dark side of the sciences

The Grodog Miscellany

• browse through the Grodog's stuff wanted:  useful for sending that random gift out of the blue, as well as for Holiday Shopping, tape trading online, etc.

• browse through the wine cellar, and ogle the collection of alcohol that I have accumulated (some of which is inherited from my old roommate)

• last, but certainly not least, is my cornucopia of assorted Grodogiana links, with further links to such diverse and sundry interests as The Grohe Homepage, the pages of various friends and relations of mine, and other wacky sundries

I'm sure I'll add to this as time and inspiration come together.
