Gary Gygax, the original g33k. R.I.P. (sniff)

As people may or may not know, the father of tabletop RPG and co-founder of Dungeons & Dragons, Gary Gygax, died on Tuesday, March 4th. (sigh) This man started me down the road to g33kdom. I don't play as much as I used to in recent years, but back in the day I have clocked hundreds of hours sitting around a table. There was nothing better than hanging with some great friends, talking tech or anything geek related, and throwing that d20--hoping, against all odds, to get that critical.

So. with that all said. Hail to the original father of the geek! Rest in peace my old friend...
