My real name is Roy Northern and I'm from Southeast Missouri(same town as rudel-). As the handle suggests,

I am a huge deathmetalfan, although just about anything hardcore will do it for me. If you can't mosh to it, it ain't worth listening to.

As for the real life stuff, I am 33-year old high school history teacher(World History and Government) so WWII flight sims and historically-based computer games in general are right up my alley. Basically, I am just an all-around gamer as I will play just about anything that can hold my attention for at least 5 minutes or so.I also have a wife, Susan, and a new son (about 5 months as I post this) named Ty Alexander. As such, I don't fly as much as I would sometimes like,but I usually can knock down as many of them as they do of me, and occasionallymore, so all is good.

Oh, P.S., huge hockey fan too and play a little roller-hockey here and there.Obviously a big Blues fan, so of course my team always loses.
