1)I was engaged once before I met and married my wife.
2) During the 2004 Elections, my boss and I were traveling for business. in Tennessee. We crashed both the Republican and Democratic Parties in two different hotels by switching the buttons we were wearing. I was so drunk that I barely made it the next morning to lead the training classes.
3) I have a framed and signed photo of me and Lou Ferigno together.
4) For my job I stayed two weeks straight in New Orleans 2 months after Hurricane Katrina hit. It's an experience and a sight I will never forget, sadly.
5) My wife and I met online, she's from New York, I'm Texan. Here we are almost 7 years later.
6) I've made mentions to people before, but I was a Gamefaqs moderator for over 7 years. I don't know how I survived that place, but I ended up here.
7) Along with Item 6, I also used to write FAQs. I've got one of the largest Phantasy Star Online FAQs for the Dreamcast. I also co-wrote one of the biggest Gran Turismo 3 FAQs as well. If you find these, you'll find my original online name. (I became CronosBlade when I left GFaqs).
8) My favorite movies are mob movies. I can quote Casino and GoodFellas line for line.
9) Anyone remember when Blockbuster ran a video game contest? The contest was a timed run on Sonic 1 and two other games, with high scores advancing,I made it to the regional finals in San Antonio at Sea World before losing by 1 point in NBA Jam (when my player missed a layup with 4 seconds in the game).
Dude! Eyesight is super important, so I feel your pain. I blogged last week about somewhat almost losing mine in my left eye. =( And a dreaded moderator on GameFAQs eh? =P

about me
Just a guy who loves to talk video games a lot. I try to be funny and fail a lot, but I swear I'm worth having around.
I'm an older gamer (read:30) and I like to look back on all the good (and bad) that I played through in the before time.
I don't game as much thanks to my 2yr old daughter, but I do keep up on the latest things. As far as she's concerned, well she likes to hit the buttons a lot, which means she could win a few rounds of DOA.
Destructoid is an independently-run publication forged by our love of video games and the gaming community's need of accountable enthusiast press living the dream since March 16, 2006

Sorry about the eye. But you were determined not to swallow.
Gamefaqs? Oh man, what a harsh world that must have been.
I remember what New Orleans was like before Katrina. It's still one of my favorite places to visit though. Great list cronos!
"I have a framed and signed photo of me and Lou Ferigno together."
I hate you.
I'm still in the south, just an hour from New Orleans. All the pussies are gone, and it is sweet.

You are my hero for both 2 and 3.
Gamefaqs moderator for 7 years? There is a place in heaven reserved for you. You've endured hardships that few have imagined.
If you go to PAX, I'll try not to shoot my load in your good eye.
I can't promise what pew said, I'm sorry!
You're more than a man if you can survive Gamefaqs that long
Man gamefaqs is hardcore, that is way more detail than I could pick up from a game.
Faqs are an epic undertaking. I have never had the selflessness to make one.
"I've made mentions to people before, but I was a Gamefaqs moderator for over 7 years. I don't know how I survived that place, but I ended up here."
Please share your secrets with us on that.
Hey, sorry about the eye.. In my defense I DID go get you a towel.
