Who's Dman - Issue 15A: Interview With Tsali (Taz)

Welcome once again to Who's Dman. Yet again, we've got another packed Issue. This week we're going to hear from the husbands (Dgeneral and Tsali). So sit back and relax, because here we go.

(editors note: This issue was broken into two parts. You are in part one of issue 15... which was the second half of the Husbands and Wives feature -- Duncan)

Tsali (aka Taz) is Sarina's husband, and leader of the former teams, The Braves, Taz's Adventurers, and Taz's Mythical Warriors.

	DUncle	When did you become involved with the Site Fights?
	Tsali	I have actually been involved with The Site Fights since The Darksbane Dragons came up August of last year. I was Sarina's back-up. I became invloved with The Site Fights full time in March of 1998.
	DUncle	What were you doing prior to the Site Fights?
	Tsali	I had ran two web competitions on my own. One was called Tsali's Bash Out and the other was called Wipe Out. Both were extrememly sucessful. However, I never had the time to review all the sites and all the other work that is involved. Just imagine having all the fairies, dpatrol's, Dman's, Nick's, and a team leader's jobs rolled into one!! I loved doing the work. But, I never had time to do it all.
	DUncle	How long was Sarina involved before you started with the Site Fights?
	Tsali	Well, Sarina had fought in The Site Fights a couple of months before she became a team leader for Darksbane Dragons. We both became involved with Darksbane Dragons in August. However, she was full time and I was a part time back-up.
	DUncle	How hard is it to pry Sarina's hands from the keyboard so you can spend time on your pages?
	Tsali	The way my work schedule goes, she usually works on her pages all week and Saturday and Sunday are mine for most of the day. She is a late sleeper and I am an early bird. So, I usually work on it while she is still in bed. So, there is not really a time I have to pry her hands from the keyboard. Now, if I needed it through the week, that would be a different story :)
	DUncle	Do you and Sarina share other interests besides The Site Fights?
	Tsali	We share a lot of interest in movies. We go grocery shopping. Lets see.....Well, we actually do not have time for many interest together. She is busy putting fire pellets in the dragons and I am busy working at my two jobs.
	DUncle	How did it affect you when Sarina started with the Site Fights?
	Tsali	I was proud of her. She had put a lot of hard work into Blackmoon Rising. I was glad when she was able to win the Dome.
	DUncle	What plans do you have for the Braves in the Future?
	Tsali	Well, our native American DChamp page is going to grow. I have been out searching the net for babies who need a good home and have found a quite a few more to adopt. I just recently re-vamped the pages to make them look more inviting. We have some other things in the works that is going to boost the team. I have vowed to be the biggest team and we will be soon. What are the other things? I can't tell. Then, it would not be a plan. LOL!!
	DUncle	How have your lives changed now that both of you are in the Site Fights with teams to run?
	Tsali	It has actually brought us closer together. Before, she was on The Site Fights all the time and I was working all the time. Now, we get to spend a little more time together even when discussing what we are going to do with our teams.
	DUncle	How hard is it to manage your time between your family and The Site Fights?
	Tsali	It would not be that hard if it wasn't for my regular job. Running the team as well as working leaves very little time for the family. Work should slow down in a couple of months and I will have more time for Sarina
	DUncle	In your mind, Who's Dman?
	Tsali	Dman is a hero. I'm one person who can say I know what he puts up with since I have run two competitions on my own.

Thank you so much Tsali. This makes me think, with all the HUGE mergers going on, (such as AT&T buying TCI), Will the Site Fights become the mega giant of the Web absorbing other competitions. But then I think that with what we've got going here, we don't need to......B^)...
