Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

[TiQuinn]

Yes, let’s scrutinize the financial statements of a company that does not explicitly break out D&D sales and profit yet again, and make concrete claims about the state of the industry.

OK, I'm home, but one question remains unanswered.

Why did I go home?

Wife and I have reached the stage of walking into a room, and wondering why we were going there, what we were doing. Its great.

I've been there for most of my life.

OTOH I can remember where I left some minor thing that I'll never likely need again, 20 years later. This has been proven when someone has decided they actually need said thing, on multiple occasions.

Not only no, but hell no.

The radon test is back; just 0.4 pCi/L (no mitigation needed for anything less than 4.0 pCi/L). We're getting estimates from electricians and carpenters, and putting together the concessions list for the various repairs and maintenance that need to be done.

I've also mustered the 20% down payment, which felt a lot like what I imagine passing a kidney stone would feel like. (Especially after spending thousands of dollars on the earnest money and inspection costs.) But everything is on track, and it looks like we'll close in 3 weeks.

Buying a house is such a pain.

Understandable. I think I threw up after signing my first purchase agreement . It’s a commitment.

Once again, trying to cut back on Caffeine. Its the worst.

I was able to recall the page numbers and issue of Dragon magazine where I'd seen an article that intrigued me ("Who Gets the First Swing? Attack Priority System Offers More Realism Without More Work", Dragon #73, starting on, I want to say, a page in the 20s) almost four decades after I'd read it, without having seen it in the intervening time. Heck, I haven't run AD&D in at least thirty years.

But for Real Life stuff, I resemble this cartoon by Asher Perlman.

Count me as another who can do stupid memory tricks, but can have surprising gaps.

I’m horrible with remembering the names of people I’ve met, for instance. I have been embarrassingly close to screwing up the names of several of my gaming friends’ wives, even after 20 years.

And these people have seen me tell them what page of a RPG book to look at for a particular rule- taking into account the game’s edition or reprints- or identify 30+ year old songs used in commercials. So they might not take misidentification errors too well.

I have a really good memory, except it is somewhat of a curse.

People come down on me alllllllllllllllllll the time, but if you want to see what the Evil Alignment actually looks like, its not the guy who likes his Barbarians under dressed.

Anyway, I did a bunch of work on my Psion today, and I'm quite happy with how its turning out.
