That's why I keep a box of red shirts near by. You never know when you'll need to promote someone to cannon fodder.

Ah, it is interesting to be a player in a PBP. I hope this goes well. It is a shame that everyone is on when I am usually sleeping.

One thing I dislike about my job. Calling and waking people up at 2am. I wouldn't want to be in their place.

As a side note, could anyone tell me why I thought it was a good idea to play D&D till 1am on a week night?

I would not worry about it. Blackrat and Walking Dad are both on when I am usuallly sleeping. And of course you are on when I am sleeping not only because of different timezones, but also because you have a night job. I am probably the only one who will be posting during the day. I just posted my response in the IC thread.

Cape Town - Last week, I got the Charlie Jade DVD boxed set. Awesome.

I need more time (and more willpower?) to create a modern/near-future campaign combining Charlie-Jade, Command & Conquer Tiberium Sun, Heroes, Dark Matter and that Einstein-as-Martial-Artist comic.

If you run it online I would be interested, could be fun to do on Google Wave.

Unlikely I find the time for it. I already play and run in an online game, and I also have a regular group. Though it would be cool.

Mustrum word has it you're coming to the US of A. The word also is you plan to visit those communists in California and not the good people of Georgia.

Don't large parts of middle-America categorize the world in terms of "Us", "Commies" & "Some Europeans who might be nice, possibly, if they agree with us"?

In other news, I lost at Blood Bowl again on Monday.

Yes, that is true. I am going to the PDC 2009 in Los Angeles and be in LA from the 14th to the 20th of November. Second time in LA, third time in the US.

My job certainly has its perks.

Communists? He said he's going to LA not San Fransisco. The correct term you should have used was "Illegals."

Yes

No. We divide the rest of Europe into "British", "French", and "Nazi." We assume that if you are not British or French then you are a Commie or a Nazi. The other parts of the world are divided into "Terrorist", "Mexico", and "Towel-head" and "Asianese."

Sweeeeet! Hopefully the Swine Flu scare is still going on so you can see how stupid people are over reacting to it's US death toll of 1000 people.

In South America that's evenly divided between "Mexico*", "Commie" and "Nazi." I'm not really sure what we consider Africa.. It most likely would be placed in the "Terrorist" category because most of the news we hear about Africa deals with Somali Pirates and genocidal warfare. Australia would be labeled as "British."



* The phrase 'Mexico' is a stand in term for any Latin American country because many Americans all assume that all of Central and South America (except for those areas colonized by the Commies and Nazis) are basically like Mexico.
