  • Hey PAX East 12 Folks!

    If you’re reading this because you got my StreetPass and decided that you wanted to see what was up with that strange URL, thanks for coming! Just wanted to let you know that I’m still in the process of getting this site going and getting content added to it, so what you see now isn’t all that’s going to be here.
