By public demand, and after a delay of an embarrassing number of years, I've finally put my notorious essay, Ender and Hitler: Sympathy for the Superman, free on the fabulous internets.

A bibliography of my published books and stories.

Here's a simple card-counting FAQ to get you up to speed on the basics. Here's the true story of the notorious DD' blackjack team, told for the first time on the fabulous internets. No other team went from a starting investor's bankroll of zero to winning millions of dollars.


A Sadean take on Asimov's classic Three Laws of Robotics can be found in Roger Williams' NOW REVIEWED ON SLASHDOT!!! The Metamorphosis of Prime Intellect.

part one: london and paris, the high speed version

am i late for the film? detail with unknown art lover, tate britain

I'm about to go on one of the world's most whackadoo "if it's Tuesday, it must be Belgium" runs, MSY-ATL-LHR, open jaw with a Eurostar ticket to Paris Nord, CDG-AMS-YVR-DFW-MSY. Three nights in London, two in Paris, one in Vancouver, if all goes according to plan. Don't know how easy or how often I will be able to get online in the next week or 10 days, so if you have stumbled on my page looking for updates, you can always entertain yourself by following a few suggested links from my previous visits. I haven't died, and the daily updates will resume in a few, but I'm just sick of hauling a computer around the world after the Farewell Gambling Tour...Electronics are heavy!

Well, at least I think I'm about to go on this trip. Haven't heard "boo" from my driver so I'm stuck at step one, getting out the door, at the moment. Half an hour later: Scratch that, I have a driver on the way. Wheeeee.

Step two, printing out a boarding pass with my name spelled correctly on it, is proving more of a challenge than it should be as well.

Click the photo of the Tower to find page one of my 2004 London and Gloucestershire adventure:

Part two of the story can be found by clicking the Worcestershire Gate:

Shopping in Paris is more your speed, you sniff? Well, by all means, click on the picture from the antique super-mall near the Louvre to find my first Paris trip:

You'll get the whole story if you start by clicking the photo and then just keep clicking "next" until the tale is told.
