    Weird Dreams

    Some really neat dreams here. I can't remember mine top-of-my-head. The worst dreams are the ones where something terrible is happening to me and I can't move or react. Obviously this probably due to the real-world sleep paralysis in REM sleep. Still leaves me a bit shaken when I wake up.

    [Webcomic] Lovecraft is Missing

    I went there and I was like, "Now what?" For those dense like me, there's a Next button hiding in plain sight. Edit: you stink. Now I obsessively look for updates, even though it has been only 4 days.

    Forked Thread: Ps3 or Xbox 360 for Fallout 3 and other games

    Well, I went a little crazy. I was looking online links to PS3 information. I found a ebay seller with a used PS3 for $300. I bid and got it. I hope everything turns out okay.

    Hive For The Holidays!

    Interesting. What part is dystopic? spoilers ? The leader rat kept reminding me of Anton Ego (Peter O'Toole) from Ratatouille. It's not him, though, I looked online. Sorry, I left some in the hive, but Reveille ate it all. As for teaching, I am a techie, not a teacher. The good teachers work...

    Tell me about Ptolus

    Hi Hobo; always a pleasure. In my amateur studying Anglo-Saxons gods <= Norse gods, sorta. The Anglo-Saxon myth lack Loki, for instance. Here is one of my reference (hardly scholarly, but works great for D&D): Anglo-Saxon Gods and Goddesses

    Hive For The Holidays!

    Hi there hive, long-time lurker, occasional poster. I made a decent stew tonight with sausage, potatoes, and tomatoes; very simple, but very filling. After dinner I saw Despereaux. I enjoyed it, but clearly a kid's movie. Tomorrow is work again. I have been off work for 2 weeks; working for...

    Tell me about Ptolus

    I am all set to start a new campaign (probably a hybrid 3.5 game). I had a concept of taking Roman Britain meets Cthulhu, plus technology and culture fast-forwarded to D&D style norms and equipment. I was thinking about how much time and energy I wanted to put in. A year ago I purchased the...

    As Thanee said it's a lot of work and even more money to get started. That said there are plenty of places that let you be a reseller for an existing hosting companies. Could be less risk, but the rewards are not as great.

    Advice needed - buying a new PC

    Yes, people want low prices and service; unfortunately those two things don't go together :( I am glad your father kept to his word. Integrity is so hard to find... As an aside I probably wouldn't have done the same.
