The Truth Behind The Geek (*creative liberties taken for the benefit of the reading audience)
J.D., who likes to brag about the size of his Wacom and his collection of Gary Trudeau action figures, was once
arrested in 1987 for running an illegal TradeWars gambling BBS. J.D.,
who used to think an analog coupler was something dirty, remains bitter
to this day for having a spearman sink his battleship in Sid Meier's Civilization.
