You find yourself floating in a strange place, seemingly the inside of a computer...

"Oh, hello there."

The voice is emanating from a computer terminal.

"Sorry about all this... you didn't think I'd really show myself, did you? I'm a sight to make eyes sore, if you get my meaning..."

"Anyway, in real life, I'm Paul Arezina, an 18-year-old student at St. Vincent College in Latrobe, PA. I'm interested in... well, all the things on display in the Aerie. Although I didn't create most of the worlds here, the characters who you speak with are largely my own invention. Yeah, copyright infringement, whatever... I'm not making any money off of this, so I rather doubt anybody would bother to sue me... Of course, with my luck..." The voice trails off.

"I suppose you're wondering what benefit there is to be gained from talking with the author of a page. Well... let's just say that certain things are rather hard to discuss in character... like the sites out there I myself enjoy but which don't really fit into any of my areas of interest. As though Mannheim Steamroller could exist in any world but this one. So, anyway... what would you like to do? Yeah, you, the one with the mouse." You feel a strange tingle...

"There. The guardian daemon should be updated... Now, would you like to:

• View the legal disclaimers for this site?
• Maybe have a look at the Webrings I'm a part of?
• Check out my own list of favorite places to go on the Web?
• Or leave me some comments? I'm always looking for ways to make this place better.

"Of course, if you've got a browser that supports frames, I could slide a new guidebar into place for you. Or you could always return to the Aerie."

The guardian daemon points the way to other locales...
