No offense to celibate D&D geeks intended. I am a recovering D&D geek... no comment on the celibacy status.
Loviatar, a goddess from Finnish myth, was in the AD&D Deities & Demigods manual - in fact, in her picture in the first edition she bared her breasts! This is something of an "in" joke for ex-D&D dufi like yours truly. Back in the early-80's, Loviatar's picture no doubt gave many an adolescent 'gameboy' his first glimpse of... a woman. So what if she was a cheezy drawing... she was hot!
The fact that she was the goddess of pain made it all the more titillating. I would try and scrounge an image, but I lost my manual years ago...
Be careful, man! Everyone knows you can't utter names of the dark lords without running the risk of summoning them and meeting a untimely Lovecraftian end. Phew, I was sweating for days in a self-constructed tent of bible pages last time I said Orcus... oh wait... I've done it again! What was that noise? There - in the shadows - no! Dread darkness! The colors! Ahhhgghhg...

Once you've had wickedly nubile Finnish goddess of pain Loviatar (1st Edition Deities & Demigods p. 55), who can be ever be satisfied by mere mortal women again?
... some unseen force is controlling all actions in the world, determining fate by the roll of a die - an all-knowing, all-powerful being who enjoys pizza and pepsi...
My experience mirrors yours - the same is true for many of my friends and colleagues.
Laid off by Nortel in 2001. Eight months of unemployment. Blew a chunk of my savings to get by. Found employment at much lower pay in 2002. Job-hopped to better digs in 2003. Another 3% and I'll be back to my 2001 level (discounting inflation). I've lost a lot of cash, though. My savings rate has been nil. Hand to mouth.
I was paid well in 2001 - not as much as some of my peers at high-flying startups, but I was comfortable.
High tech has always been volatile though, I guess I can't be too bitter about it. I do think that Bush, even if he didn't have full responsibility for precipitating the recession - well, he sure helped the rain to come down long and hard once it started.
I've been thinking of working towards a license in a trade as a fallback for times like we've just gone through.
That's nothing! I used an EUV source for writing the holograms and switched from red to blue for encoding. I recorded this morning if you'd like to look it over again.

I think not!

I got fantastic pay increases in both 2002 and 2003, but I'm still making less than I was in 2001.
One big pay decrease in 2001.
Woe is me.
a must have for dealing with those dogdy Dimensional Stabilizers
Now if you'll please excuse me, I have to get back to my study of high-energy tachyon pulses.
It's also the nine year anniversary of the recording of the smash indie hit, GYGAX!
