The New Renaissance This might seem like a redundant title, but in fact it is a new beginning for this  Web Site.   In fact it is a second new beginning for this site.  Though it is a slight step back towards its original roots, it is a new look and a change in focus.  There are three major sections to this  Web Site; Quests, How I See It, and Games.  They can be linked to from the menu above and from links provided below.  With each link is a brief description of what each section contains.  Admittedly the descriptions are just cryptic enough to whet you appetite for more,and hopefully I have been successful in enticing you to venture further. 1) Quests This section will continue to grow as new quests are taken on and when old quests have been completed, though that is not likely to happen very often.  In the beginning there are quests that are already under way, but in the future others may offer up quests they would like to see taken on. As a quest progresses there will be a platform for observers to offer opinion and suggestions, but be prepared to be caught up the the quest  if you choose to share your thoughts. The image to the right, which could be entitled “On The Street Where you Live”, is part of my first quest.  I have been searching for a great HOG.  For those of you who may be Midwest farmers I am not referring to the source of really great ribs of pork bellies, but instead I am referencing a casual game genre called hidden object games. The disreputable house in the background belongs to the blood sucking uncle of a blond Femme Fatale, and is the location of my first adventure HOG, news at eleven. 2) How I See It In a sense this is my blog and it will cover a number of topics not discussed in polite company, including politics, religion, and sex.  Sort of the three horsemen of the Apocalypse.  It promises to be either really mundane with no interest to anyone but me, or it should generate some lively discussions.  I figure with six decades under my belt, it is time I expressed my opinion.  Others will be allowed to participate, but as the editor I will use my right of veto for anything that I find offensive.  Mostly I find ignorance, bigotry, and blind obedience to be pretty offensive.  Of course there are some other reasons I may veto a response, but I will be honest as to the reason for my exclusion of a response, and I will above all else protect my self and my family.  This could prove to be a right lively spot on the Web Site. 3) Games Computer games, that is... Causal computer games.  As an old style game player, that means playing Star Trek on a teletype interface with the computer, then graduating to Kings Quest from Sierra, and now playing casual games, mostly HOG adventure games. There is a tie in to the first quest, which is finding a great HOG adventure game and then also creating one.  That is for the quest area though, not this one. In this section there are links to games created by RP, on-line games, if you haven’t them, and to Big Fish, my supplier of choice, though there are some other portals that I frequent when Big Fish doesn’t have what I want. Anyway you can find it all here,  Happy Gaming. Website made using only Xara Web Designer, and no other graphics or software tools.
