OK, this webpage hasn't been updated since 1997... so what the heck are
you doing here??? Anyway, 8 years later, I thought it would be fun to update
all these links so you can see what my pothead friends have made of themselves!
Just goes to show, there's hope for all of us...
OK, so you're probably thinking, "That's not a lot of friends you've got
there, Fred..." so I should probably point out that this list is restricted to
those of my friends who have homepages. I figured it wouldn't be terribly
interesting for me to list a bunch of people whom none of you have ever heard
of unless you could actually see something about them. DISCLAIMER: These are
in no particular order, although every time I add someone new, I just put them
at the top. Also, I've finally added a new feature to my homepage! Check out
my photo album to see some of the people who didn't make
this list because they're computer illiterate! Enjoy, you internet voyeurs!
John "Li'l Chief" Turlais:
John has no homepage but whined about being neglected so here he is anyway.
Pro ballplayer, Harvard scholar, lady's man. What more is there to say? If
you want to know what the "Li'l Chief" means, ask him to tell you one of his
obviously false stories which he claims to be totally true.
Frank "William" Hsu:
Frank has been my roommate for almost as long as I've had a roommate.
That was until this year, however. Now I hardly ever see him.
He's a natural with high-tech stuff, although you wouldn't be able to tell that
by his homepage. He's working on it, though. I like to think of the web as his
"final frontier."
Josh "It's pronounced Wee!" Uy:
I have to say that Josh's webpage has come quite a ways since it began! In
fact, I'd almost say... it's pretty GOOD! *gasp!* Not as good as mine,
though. Still, it does get points for being the home of the
Unofficial
Gene Kim Homepage.
Eugene "Eugenius" Kim: Gene's homepage hasn't changed
in about fifteen years. In fact, it used to be better than Josh's, but he
has failed to keep up with the times. The only thing
redeeming about it is that he has some funny pictures. See if you can find
the one of Josh as a sumo wrestler!
Seema "The Warrior Princess" Baranwal:
Enter the Temple of Seema! (She's not high on herself or anything.)
Mark E. "Mark" Jacoby: Mark is the weirdest person I know
and has no computer knowledge whatsoever so I had to make a homepage for him.
Please e-mail him because he's very lonely!
David "Psycho" Hanauer©: Dave is a weirdo and local
celebrity. Ever since he copyrighted his last name, he's been getting these
huge royalty checks in the mail every week!
Danika "Donald"
LeDuc:
Whoa, Danika finally got a homepage! OK, so it's not much, but at least she
exists. Electronically speaking, that is.
Thomas "English Muffins" Young: This is the guy that I
had to share a room with for eight months, and I am happy to say that he never
broke any of my stuff, although he did kick a hole through the wall which he
neglected to mention before he left. Thanks, buddy.
Chris "The Man" Lin: This is another guy I had to
live with although I didn't share a room with him. All in all, Chris was a
good guy, but he talked way too much. For those of you who don't know him, this
blurb drips with sarcasm.
Brian "The Man" Roelofs: Brian aspires to be a web
wizard like myself (j/k), so send him some encouragement, ok?
Darcy "The Man" Niven: Brian's ITD goddess. Really.
He said so.
Sireen "Ready for the Beddy" Reddy: Sireen aspires to
be as HTML-literate as Brian, so you know he's in bad shape.
Ming "Na Wen" Chen: This man is the master of
HTML. (At least that what he told me.) I aspire to achieve his
level of knowledge. Yep, we here at the University of Michigan do a lot of
aspiring...
Josh "It's pronounced Wee!" Ehrenfried: Last I talked to him, he was heading off somewhere to start his real
job. To be honest, I didn't see him much after I stopped working at ITD, but
he was always at the bar when I was there!
Juris "Schwarzenegger" Shibayama: When Juris and I parted ways at our high school graduation, he was a
pretty big guy already, but at least he looked like a normal human being. Now
he looks like one of those guys in those muscle suits, only it's real. Look
at his webpage. He's got pictures...
Henry "Chick Magnet"
Chong: One of my best friends who has finally escaped the social black hole
the rest of us refer to as MIT. Now he's at the social black hole that the
rest of us refer to as Berkeley. Way to move up in the world, Henry!
Ethan "Hot Pants"
Honda: Even though he doesn't mention me, Henry, or Ben on his webpage,
you'll have to take my word for it that we're all high school buddies. If his
homepage makes him sound like a geek, don't let it fool you! He is one!
Ben "Mega Meat" Mui: I lived
with Ben, Henry, and Ethan for two years back in high school. Our exploits
make for a pretty interesting story, let me tell you. Anyway, at some point,
we coined the nickname "Mega Meat" for Ben. (Same time we came up with "Chick
Magnet" and "Hot Pants".) I don't think Ben ever understood the irony of his
nom de plume, though.
Mitchell "Little Brother #2" Wu:
Yep, he's actually my brother, but I don't have a section for those. Browse his little corner of cyberspace
and I'll give you three guesses as to what his hobby is.
Greg "Little Brother #1" Wu: And this is my other brother
who only recently created his webpage. A little bitter are we, Greg? He used
to have some interesting things to say about the high school we went to, but I
think he's been censored.
