My Interests

Arcade Game Collecting	One of my favorite hobbies is collecting and working on full-size video arcade games. I have also done some conversions to use the arcade emulator MAME, and even built my own game. Check out my collection.	Killer List of Videogames Build Your Own Arcade Controls MAME MAME World
Audio Dramas	I have a one hour commute each way to work. That's a lot of time sitting in the car. To keep my sanity, I began listening to audiobooks, old time radio, and other audio dramas. Thanks to the Internet and the widespread use of the MP3 compression format, I've collected a large number of audio programs. I'm especially interested in science fiction productions. Try listening for yourself. There are some sample programs available at the sites listed to the right.	Radio Tales Radio Lovers Old Time Radio Pages Science Fiction Creators BBC 7 Radio
Rush	My favorite band! I've been a fan since I was in 7th grade (that's a long time). Geddy's playing led to my interest in the bass guitar. I've seen every tour since "Grace Under Pressure"; and how I wish I would have seen the earlier concerts. Check them out!	Official Rush Site Rush Tablature Project Rush MIDI Project
Three Stooges	My favorite comedy group! I've been a fan of them for as long as I can remember. What can I say about them? Nyuk, Nyuk, Nyuk! I've managed to gather a decent collection of Stooges stuff, including a Stooges video arcade game. I hope to soon create a Stooges-themed room.

I am Mario. I like to jump around, and would lead a fairly serene and aimless existence if it weren't for my friends always getting into trouble. I love to help out, even when it puts me at risk. I seem to make friends with people who just can't stay out of trouble. What Video Game Character Are You? (NOTE: I actually answered the questions honestly!)
