I have lots of TeX software, "The TeXbook", Leslie Lamport's book and some
related goodies.  What I don't have is a handy TeX guru.  Everything is 
difficult, and not everything makes sense.  It would be a great help if there
was some guide available to starting out with TeX and METAFONT on your own.
Is there one?  Any pointers?
