The Editor
Bill Donohue did a 13-year stint as Managing Editor for Game Players, UGP and PSM magazines. He created Gazuga and The Cleansing. He composed the ultimate Super Bomberman 2 anthem - (He Ain’t Got) “No Boot.” My dog, Maya, is getting smarter. Now she comes up and nudges me exactly at 4 AM, 8 AM and 1 PM for food. I reckon she’ll be driving the truck to the Grub & Jug pretty soon...
