My jobs have included Managing an RPG Shop for about 8 years, writing material (Had some published !!!), Computer Support Manager & currently a Government Officer.
I am married and have 2 kids (AND the wife is a gamer too !!!)
Anyone want to drop me a line to talk RPGS or life in general - feel free !!
Take care all

Coug has to be smarting from all the negative attention he has earned.  He responds to any stimulus like he has been shot.

My name is Jeremy. I am 37. I played when I was younger but not for about 20 years now. I have been collecting for about 6 years. I have just over 400 pieces in my collection: TSR, MERP, Judges Guild, Avalon Hill, and a few more obscure ones. I have been visiting TheAcaeum for most of the time I have been collecting and must compliment the people that make this the best RPG collectors site on the web.

I have only just discovered these boards and recognise many of the names as people I have interacted with and purchased from on Ebay. Great to see such a positive, vibrant RPG fan community.

I have young kids that are just starting to get interested in Role Playing so may be able to start playing again soon!
