Slayer was fun, played that one quite a bit. Hell was another interesting game, never did finish it though, since had just borrowed the system from a friend. There was this other RPG for the 3DO, Guardian War, which I enjoyed. Dragon's Lair was incredibly frustrating, but eventually beat the...

The link worked for me, not sure if the link was changed recently or not. The mushrooms look pretty neat.

Here in Winnipeg you get bugged by panhandlers looking for money or cigarettes. I do have a few amusing/disturbing bus stories though: My least favourite time on the bus was the time that I sat on a wet seat while heading to work. It had a fabric covering, so I didn't see that it was wet at...

I've had similar things happen in the past as well, where one computer could connect to another, but the second computer could not connect to the first computer. I just kept playing around with the workgroup, and I was able to get them both to connect.

What I don't understand is why Harry was the one leading the training of the OotP students, when Hermione has always been the best at magic, and the most knowledgeable about it. It just seemed to go against the previous movies in that regard, but I guess Harry has to be the hero. I also...

Wasn't there a lawsuit filed about cruise control, where someone set the cruise control for their RV, and then went in the back to have a nap? I like the drug ads on tv, where the side effects sound twice as bad as the actual disease. It does make me wonder though when they say "should not be...

I know that here when the phone number was changed because of getting repeated strange calls, there was no charge for the number change at least. Not the most satisfying solution, but better than getting annying calls at 2 in the morning. You could always tell the callers the truth, that she...

Gothic 1 + 2 are pretty good. The controls are a little awkward, but the actual fighting is fun. I just got #3, but haven't tried it yet. Probably going to try this weekend, after I clear some stuff off of the comp. The Might and Magic games were fun too. Especially V+, since I hated the...

Somehow this Orville reminded me of the Chucky doll from the Childsplay movies. Not really sure what it was about it, but it is disturbing.

I saw the movie a while ago now, and found it entertaining enough. I wouldn't say it's the best movie I've seen, but there are definitely worse movies out there. I remember that it had quite a bit of advertising done for it on tv. I did like it when they made fun of him in Southpark in the...

I've only had my LCD monitor for about 6 hours, but I'm enjoying it so far. Can't believe the weight difference when lugging my old monitor downstairs. Gotta love Boxing Day sales :)

I played a frenzied berzerker in one campaign, and he came to become one of my favorite characters. A DC20 will save isn't too high, if you are able to get a wisdom boost, or save booster. Think I only ever attacked a party member once, and managed to get criticals with both attacks :D These...

And the guy's pleading innocent? I'm sure in some vague, twisted way, you could justify killing your wife, but trying to kill your defenseless child? At least he tried to get help for him, if that means anything. Makes you wonder about people sometimes, how they can do such horrible things to...

He Man, Looney Toons, Scooby Doo, Conan the Adventurer, and Pirates of Dark Water were my favorite cartoons when I was younger, along with the D&D cartoon. Simpsons, Futurama, Family Guy, and Justice League are some of my current favorites. I can't believe no one mentioned South Park. Granted...

I find that Adam Sandler movies bother me. I keep expecting them to be funny, but I find that I get too irritated with his character to enjoy the movie. Happy Gilmore wasn't bad, but I wasn't able to sit through Billy Madison. J-Lo was pretty good in "The Cell" but other than that, I haven't...
