You probably already know this, being from Belgium and all, but I certainly hope you don't plan to drink copious amounts of American beer. I compare that to drinking copious amounts of toilet water. Nope, no place compares to Belgium for beer, as you well know. Me and the missus took a little anniversary trip to Brugge a while back, and man, that's my favorite town in the world now. I would absolutely LOVE to retire there some day, and just wander around the city center, feasting on fries, chocolate truffles, and beer, beer, beer. (I'd die within a year, probably, with a diet like that, but I'd die happy!)


Yeah, dinking budweiser is like having sex in a canoe, as they say in belgium.

Anyways, if you ever come back to belgium, let me know, I know a few bars where they have every kind of beer brewed in belgium. The list covers the entire wall....

Lazlow, please see below for a question:
[sblock]Is there an easy way to get the following, 19 Wisdom is WAY out of reach for me, but it is what the character is trying to get in the long run...

BLINDSIGHT,5-FT.RADIUS [GENERAL]
Prerequisites: Base attack bonus +4, Blind-Fight, Wisdom 19.

Benefit: Using senses such as acute hearing and sensitivity to vibrations, you detect the location of opponents who are no more than 5 feet away from you. Invisibility and darkness are irrelevant, though it you discern incorporeal beings.

Would one of them happen to be the 't Brugs Beertje? That place was great! As equally impressive as the beer list was the staff's knowledge. I told this one bartender that I wasn't quite sure what I wanted, so he asked me a bunch of questions, like dark or light, sweet or bitter, malty or hoppy, etc., and I'll be damned if what he gave me didn't taste EXACTLY like what he said it would. It was a Tripel Karmeliet, my new favorite, thanks to him, which, sadly, I can't get here. :(

Lazlow, please see below for a question:

Answer:

[sblock=Wystan only, please]Well, the easiest way I can think of right now would be to use an action point (I think we may have forgotten that we were using those!) to emulate a feat, i.e., spend an action point to use a feat you don't have. Oh, but you gotta qualify for it, and you don't have the 19 Wisdom. Well, hrmm... The only other way I can think of is to get a magic item that grants you that feat. ;) ;) Which might be forthcoming soon. ;) ;) [/sblock]

If you were a true beer lover you'd simply emigrate, wich would also give you the chance to DM a tabletop game for one of the civilised world's greatest roleplayers ever (I am too modest to tell you that that's me, but I figure you would have realised that from the moment you read my first post, so I won't point it out to you). Did I mention Belgium is neighbouring The Netherlands, where they have those nice sweet places called coffee shops? And that the cops in Belgium don't give a rat's arse what you smoke as long as you don't do it in public?

So when exactly are you moving over here? :D

Stop, stop, you're making me cry... :(

Been to the Netherlands a couple times now, both for business and pleasure, and we really enjoyed it too. Not much of a coffee drinker, though (ahem). But overall I think we enjoyed Belgium a little more. Me for the beer, Mrs. Laz for the chocolate. If it were up to me, I'd move tomorrow! ;)
