    I started learning by editing gorillas.bas. Eventually created an copy of my elementary school’s IBM system at a very basic level, from memory! Another kid my same age and I knew all the admin passwords and we would have hacker wars to lock each other out. We were 11. We also played a lot of a game called Chopper that was on the server. It was fucking awesome and i just tried to find it to link and I can’t seem to.

    Went on to build areas and program mobs/rooms/items with whatever the hell that language was for a low population MUD. I put in thousands of hours. As far as I know all that work is lost.

    Anyway I could have been smart! Instead I discovered that girls are pretty and now I do labor for work.

    Oh what could have been. Just kidding, no regrets.
