The “Athar” June 17, 2006

Posted by atharkhan in : Personal , trackback

Someone recently emailed me asking if I was named after “The Athar.”

“The Athar?” Is that the same as “The Donald?” Everyone knows “The Donald” but I had never even heard of “The Athar.” So, of course I googled the term and found this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Athar

Apparently, “The Athar” are characters from Dungeons & Dragons. Okay people, I may be into tech gadgets, a few comic books and computers but a gamer I am not. I was into video games for a brief period (around 1988 I think) and the ones I played were hardly elaborate. Of all the arcade games I played, I think “Bubble Bobble” was my favorite at the time which is a far cry from Dungeons and Dragons.
