http://www.crisjolliff.com/uncategorized/on-the-passing-of-gary-gygax
On the Passing of Gary Gygax. It’s funny how things hit you when you’re not expecting them. I’m not really known for being a very sentimental guy. If anything, I probably come off as a bit remote, to most people. Opening up about how I feel about something isn’t really my cup of tea. The news of the passing of Gary Gygax hit me HARD.

http://www.crisjolliff.com/uncategorized/avatar-fantastic-but-not-revolutionary
