Well, this is a bit nuts. I used to play D&D. Not AD&D, the actual, original game, D&D. Created in part by The Great Gax, who is no longer with us. There's a site which will pose 140 or so questions, then come up with you, personally, as an AD&D character - sans name.
My results are below the fold.
I found this on reddit - The Front Page of the Internet, and it's well worth reading. You can read the article for yourself as you like (Writing Techniques by Jim Butcher (Bestselling Fantasy Author of the Dresden Files)) but I've listed the individual missives below, in order.

Better pin her to your side
Now if you got a good woman
You better pin her to your side, yeah
'Cause if she flag my train Buddy
I'm bound to let her ride

If you were standing next to me, you'd know I was listening to music from my iPod - which is nothing short of a minor miracle.
On October 2nd, 2004, my brother bought me a (then) top of the line iPod - an iPod Photo, which featured a 60 Gig drive. I promptly loaded my entire collection of CDs on it and had space left over, which I've been slowly filling ever since.

| My iPod, Repaired and Working |
The trouble is that the battery has been slowly but steadily going south ever since. Three years ago I took it to the local (Rotten) Apple store and asked about getting a new battery.
Sorry, no. Okay, not all that sorry, but still no. Apple manufactured these devices so they couldn't be fixed. So no, but we can sell you new one which should work.
No thanks.
I tried other places with no luck. No one wanted to touch it. Apple, you see, didn't want it repaired.
One month ago it stopped working. But I kept looking for a repair place.
On Monday, December 28, 2020, I discovered Kurt Decker at Decker Electronics. I took my iPod over to him, and he gave it a cursory look, then told me it would probably take about a week. True to his word, I picked up my REPAIRED and fully functional iPod on Sunday, January 8, 2021.
Nothing succeeds like success.
Kurt Decker is a hands-on sort, and will work on just about anything. If you're in or around Columbus, and need a TV, phone, or whatever repaired, this is the man to call.
