Great Typos

"The ride to South Market was moistly uneventful."
DragonCon, Part 0

Made it to the hotel. Took a bit longer than expected due to rain, traffic, etc, but we got in about 7ish. The trip down was mostly uneventful, unless you count the driving down windy mountain roads in blinding rain bit.…
I should blog about Wedding 2.0....

...and I will, but for now, I want you to look at this.Weep for future. Weep for us all.
Rarest Spawn EVAR...

A PUG of roleplayers in an MMORPG. Nonetheless, we ran into some last night. Sadly, some jerkwad had killed the questgiver and he had a two hour respawn, but I'm really close to getting my Shiny Brass Halberd. Beth, of c…
Not quite Rule 34...

If there isn't an RPG to go with this image, by all the Gods, there should be! (View full size and read caption in lower right...)
Rule 34 Of The Internet....And Stardust Review

"If you can imagine it, there is porn of it." (Link IS Worksafe)Went to see Stardust for the second time last night -- first time was at ConGlomeration. It is a wonderful film with poor box office, so, if you like light …
Today's Theme: Pain

Well, really, it's been the theme since...uhm..Tuesday, when I somehow wrenched something in my upper back and have been wincing regularly ever since. Other than that, the week's been going pretty well. I have managed to…
Flash Gordon Review

Sci-Fi Channel Remake Bombs; Film At 11One thing I was mildly looking forward to was the Sci-Fi channels remake of Flash Gordon. I mean, it's pretty obvious I have something of a love for the genre (Iron Lords of Jupiter…
ConGlomeration Report

Well, I'm glad we didn't have too drive far to it.I've rarely seen a con run so unprofessionally. I know, most cons -- other than biggies like DragonCon and GenCon -- are amateur affairs, but 'professional' doesn't just …
Con Season Begins...

I will be going to one con a week for the next three weeks. Yow. Conglomeration, then GenCon, then DragonCon, and, somehow, I have to fit a wedding in there as well. September is official "Curl In A Fetal Ball" month for…
Things Heard In Our Household

"No one is getting dinner until I'm done scattering animal entrails!"Context.
Things Moving Along

Apparently, I'm a non-bloggy phase. Life is pretty much moving forward as I'd like it to (knock wood). Playing a lot of EQ2, now that Beth is here to play with me -- MMORPGing alone is no fun. The game has changed a lot,…
Take the Magic: The Gathering 'What Color Are You?' Quiz.
Less Than Meets The Eye?

OK, the guy at Shortpacked is pretty stoked over this, and he's as big a fanboy as they come, but for me....uhm...well, I do not like the Teen Titans ripoff animation style, the little girl-thing has GOT to go, and how c…
Well, That's A Relief

Having finally gotten the finances settled enough that we could afford it, we took Dusk to the vet yesterday, something we really should have done before we let her mix with the other kitties. She has a severe uterine in…
