As I patch together a response, it's worth noting that my wife Peggy tends to kick me whenever I make a pun. I've become wary of Peg's leg.

A good article. My only complaint was "D&D devotees include action hero Vin Diesel, who wrote the book's forward."

(Empahsis mine)

It is foreword, and a professional journalist should know that (as should her editor and even the copy-person).

I once wrote the source text for a bunch of technical manuals. They were proofed by me, two other techs, and two documentation writers. We print 300 of the books, and we're boxing them to send out to the clients, and my brother, who I hired to help with the grunt work, holds up a book and says 'Hey, dumbass, you forgot the 'e' in Foreward'

Nice article. Good to know I'm not a basement-dwelling, misfit geek anymore.

They misspelled Wil Wheaton's name too. They might want to hire an editor...

Attached is my silent response to all this punning; try to take it at face value.

Think that's bad? Piratecat has no arms.
