Those I am never without. These are the people who have had to put up with me the most, and who have the most important places in my heart.	Allen Ano Allen is the really tall blond guy that I spend a ton of time with. I could go on for pages about everything the two of us have done for fun over the past few years. This is a guy who has a great attitude on life, and can always bring a smile to my face. Rob Walker Rob was my closest confidant throughout college. I never would have guessed that striking up a conversation with a trumpet player on the way to the Union one day would have such an affect on my life. Rob is one of the kindest people I have ever met, and his value to my life can not be put in words. Rob will let me pour my heart out to him, whether some woman has broken my heart, or just the Cubs again. Greg Brown Greg was my best friend throughout High School. We don't get to see each other often anymore, but it is just like old times when we do. I don't know what kind of person I would be today if I had not had been influenced by Greg's heart and friendship through the years.
Once a tuba, always a tuba I've made priceless friendships with most of the tuba players at Michigan, but few have their own web pages. There is, however, a section page.	Michael "Tex" Lee Tex was one of the first people I met in the Michigan Marching Band, and is still one of the Marching Band people I hang out with the most. When not playing the tuba, Tex is an aerospace engineer and a budding Kung Fu master. Heather McKee Heather is about as big a fan of U of M football as I know, especially of former linebacker Clint Copenhaver. A veritable source of gossip, Heather once took a bicycling tour of France. Molly May Technically Molly plays the string bass, not the tuba. But since I met her because she was dating a tuba, and every one of the non-imaginary friends she has seems to be a tuba, I still count her as a tuba. Mol is an awesome baker, a risk taker and a LA Laker. Well, maybe not the last one, though she is really tall.
You mean there's life off of the computer? I met these people through a defunct conference system called Meet-Students. For the most part these people aren't students anymore, and I don't see them as often as I used to. But for a long time this group was my social life, and sometimes I miss those days.	Jason Boss I have never had a conversation with Jason that didn't make me think, which is the biggest compliment I can give the man. Stuart Collis Stuart is largely responsible for the 2.5 bridge master points that I have to my name. He's also an original member of our basketball and men's softball teams, and the founder of my indoor soccer team. Dann Fuller I was long overdue in recognizing his coolness on my previous web page, so I'll do it here. Dann is cool. Dann and I have had seats together at Comerica Park, and I really enjoyed talking baseball with him. He too is an original member of our basketball team and is an avid poker player. Merrie Fuller Mer was my boss at the library, but she was a friend first, both in order of importance and chronology. Mer has an incredible King Arthur page, and once tried to teach me how to drive. Liz Jensen Liz and I are twins. Don't let our different parents, ages or blood types convince you otherwise. She's currently in medical school at Tulane. Jason Kleinberg Jason lived down the hall from me for my first three years at Michigan. We had a few great conversations stuck between many inane ones. We also spent countless hours watching Sailor Moon and whatever else had been on television for the past week. Susan Lyon Susan can be blamed for this webpage, since she taught me html. We roleplay together in a rapidly dying game, and sometimes disagree on penguin speech patterns. Laura Packard Laura has lived all over the world, though no longer lives in the "non-brothel" Martha Cook. She through a surprise party for me one year, and has played a great right field for our softball team in several others. Steve Pheley Steve survived living in a house with four women for two years - he's far more deserving of a million dollars than the naked guy on CBS. The only unfortunate thing is that he gave up on his quest for the best cup of hot chocolate in Ann Arbor before solving the riddle. Laurel Rosenberg Laurel brought out every emotion I knew I was capable of, and several on top of that. As she said, we've been to hell and back, and back is better. Dan Winningham You ain't seen nothing like the mighty Dwinn. (Not mighty enough to conquer the El Gordo and quint with Egg and Bacon challenge, but still mighty.) Dan has an awesome sense of humor, a large variety of interests and doesn't believe in homosexual polar bears.
Those who would deny my existence. These people all have web pages, but don't include a link to me - Hence the brief descriptions.	Shiela Amey-Overton Shiela was a very important part of my getting through high school. We used to go bowling a lot. R. Dean Carter Star pitcher on our co-rec and men's softball teams. An Atlanta Braves fan from before John Smoltz. Mary Cates A former resident of the Confer House, Mary displays good taste in movies by liking Sneakers. Kevin Corr Nevik was both a member of the MMB and on confer, yet we didn't start hanging out until after confer died and our marching band eligibility had run out. Nev is pretty cool for a Wings fan. Michael Donovan Former teammate on the basketball team. Cleveland Indians fan. Todd Elkins Manages our Men's softball team. Used to do other stuff too, until he discovered EverCrack. Kevin Hogan He knew who Steve Lake is! He also shares my fondness of A&W hamburgers. Jon Khoo I went to high school with Jon. I was really jealous when his Northwestern football team made it to the Rose Bowl before Michigan did. Ian "Jones" McLaury Former star and current coach of the basketball team. Has a cool Magic 8-ball. Neil McNeight Neil is tall. He is also smart. Did I mention he is tall? Matt Quirk Produced some of the coolest artwork at the finger-painting party. Jacquelene Steele A better friend than I could describe in one sentence. Jim Yeh Great to talk politics with, unless you'll be offended when he confuses "moderate liberal" with "communist".
