I work in the Automated Data Processing Equipment (ADPE) section of my base's Communications Squadron. We keep track of all the computers on base so people don't make off with them. A couple months ago my office got merged with the Help Desk.

World of Warcraft is going pretty well. Sherp (my mage) hit level 70 long ago and is slowly climbing the gear charts, Ahrotahntee (my guild) is slowly progressing through Karazhan, and Svyetlii (my new paladin) is in his late 20s and climbing. Fun times. With my guild's invaluable assistance, I'm producing a
machinema comedy; I'll be sure to post it here when it's done.
Orson Scott Card is an incredibly good sci-fi writer. Better than Heinlein, probably. His books are like exquisitely-written sci-fi, multi-subject parables 500 pages long. <3
