Two Likely DMs (Old Codgers)
I came across this old pict of myself and EGG taken at Milwaukee GameFest many years ago. He was in a wheelchair and I was recovering from a broken leg and was using a cane. We were great together, like Laurel and Hardy. We went on to give Peter Bradley and Dungeon Delver and their compatriots a very hard time (well, we TPKed the lot, actually, but not because we wanted to...) in an adventure set on the Yggsburgh outdoor. I'm always fondly reminded of the old codger in so many ways, almost daily.
I have never in my life been so happily geeked out as I was to lean across the table and say "Gary, can I borrow your Players Handbook?" when we were building characters for that game, Rob.
