Goodbye, old friend.  In memoriam, I'll play a spot of OotG tonight.

That f*cking sucks.  I know a couple of guys that actually won an opportunity to game with him, at Milwaukees old Game Fest Convention.  f*ck dude, that really sucks.  The same day as Favre retires too-

 shits bad for Wisconsinites right now.

I met Gary a couple times at the Gencon Auction halls too..

Truly a Sad day...................
