I'm 34, so I know Leif at least is older than I am. But even if you hadn't read the books, are you telling me nobody has seen the Disney version of The Jungle Book? We are talking 1967, after all, so age shouldn't have much to do with it.

1967 - The year of my birth, as well as that of Leif, Scotley and JA.

I used to watch the Disney version when they showed it on TV every year, as well as Rikki-Tikki-Tavi (which was also one of the Jungle Books).
 


I knew you looked young, but damn! 25?

Yup, Only graduated from school a couple years ago, although luckily I do look a bit older than that (helps at work).

I used to watch Jungle Book all the time. I loved the music in that one. Very cool stuff.
 

My daughter is now very much into both the Jungle Book and Rikki-Tikki-Tavi, pretty much confirming them as timeless classics I guess.

She also like she music from the Jungle Books - particularly 'I Wanna Be Like You.' She's more fond of the Smash Mouth remake than of the original, but she likes them both.
 


Kipling was one of my favorite authors as a kid. I can't count the number of times I read the Jungle Books (all of them, not just the Mowgli stories) in Jr High/High School.
Oh, c'mon, it was perfectly clear reference for, I don't know...YOUNGER PEOPLE? :)

:P

Sorry, couldn't resist with all references to old people here ... I don't really know how old any of you so don't get mad...I read those book too, mowgli, but it was about 15 years since I read last one...and I'm 32 years.


That said:
Does anyone needs 4th ed newbie in a game?...I'm reading much about it, but didn't have a chance trying it. On paper it seems very simplified, but with added precision to movement and effects...but now you can't say I'm playing fighter because it's simple, I don't need to track all those spells and spell effects :( And there is no barbarian (at least in PHB)

I'm willing to try starpact warlock...

When I was a wee lad (3-5,maybe) I used to go to sleep almost every night with Disney's Jungle Book record playing, and Shere-Khan whispering his lullaby to me. I understand that I was also taken to see the Disney movie, but I don't remember going, I just remember reading the book that came with the record from it. I didn't realize it was an actual, serious book for years, but I never read it.

Neutotic: I'm afraid that I'm about at my limit for characters in my 4E game, so I can't offer you an active slot now. I can let you submit a character as an alternate if you wish. :) Follow these links to the game, and note that the first post of the rogues' gallery has an exhaustive (I hope) list of all the race/class options available in the PH, PHII, and 4EAdvanced Player's Guide.

Funny enough, almost all of Disney's animated shows have been based on actual serious books or stories. At least the older ones.

I'm 1977. Rikki-Tikki-Tavi is one of the best!

born in *ahem*1963 and i remember this book about a kid named tikitiki-tembo-no-sah-rembo-chari-bari-roochi-tip-tari-tembo or something like that. my 2nd and 3rd grade teachers read it to the class is what I remember. I was also the only one who was able to repeat the name.

Bare (bear?) necessities was my fav, although that song is good fun too.
My favorite song. by the way, what was the name of the snake?
