My user name translates to **Wazgork the Despoiler** in Orc. I like that. Entering my real name I discover that in Middle earth I was an “ **Irritating Kin-Slayer** ”. I can live with that

It has been brought to my attention that the link to the “hot orcish cheerleaders” who are will ing to talk to you for 10 GP per minute----doesn’t work. :o So sorry. [As an apology, here is a free link to a semi-hot Orcish Cheerleader.](http://www.geocities.com/Area51/Dungeon/9979/orcchr.htm) She won’t talk to _you_ (much like all other girls, if you play D&D), but _you_ can talk to _her_, & then _pretend_ that she is willing to talk to you (much like all other girls, if you play D&D). ---
