Robert Asprin has passed away
When a friend of mine started a BBS sometime in 1990, I connected and created an account. I needed a user name and, being the nerd/geek that I was (and still am), a copy of Robert Asprin's "Phule's Company" was sitting next to the computer monitor.
And so..."phule" it was and, for the most part, "phule" it's been ever since. It's difficult to comprehend that I've been using the handle for 18 years. (Though, as many know, I've been a fool for 33...)
Robert Asprin passed away, rather unexpectedly as I understand it, on Thursday. May he rest in peace.
