I'm not sure where, but I think I once read that dragonhide armor also grants energy resistance depending on what type of dragon. Sorry I can't come up with a reference.

Okay, I missed most of tonight's game (East, Game 5). What the heck happened to the Celtics at the end? I got the impression that it was close until the fourth quarter when NJ got a 20-1 run or something like that. The Celtics have a way of getting themselves into holes and then fighting...

I really really hope your predictions hold true Kajamba, but the Lakers can't wait for a one game do-or-die playoff. They have to buckle down NOW! However, I do agree that whoever wins in the West will probably win the whole thing. Then again, I thought the Lakers would beat the Kings in 5...

Okay, I know this is mostly a hockey crowd and the last NBA Playoff thread didn't generate too many reponses, but has anybody seen the last few playoff games? They've been great! As a Laker fan, Game 4 was awesome. And even though LA lost Game 5, it was still fun to watch. The Eastern...

That makes a lot of sense. Thanks for the info.

Regarding slayers other than Buffy, since our heroine died last season, shouldn't another have risen to take her place. That's how we got Kendra and then Faith. Have they explained this and I just missed it? Regarding Spike's soul, I hope he won't just be an Angel wannabe. I also hope he...

I guess we'll have to agree to disagree. I really liked that Xander got to be useful and save the day. Yeah, you saw it coming from a mile away, but it was still done well. Also, the fact that the big bad was defeated by love and not by Buffy just beating the crap out of it was fine by me...

I recommend David Eddings' Belgariad and Malloriad series. It takes 5 books to tell each story, but they're great stories.

Sorry, I'm pretty sure she's beyond resurrection. 1) Killing her so soon after her and Willow getting back together is too perfect; and 2) Amber Benson was on the show for three seasons and was never in the opening credits (until last episode). I'm more interested in what Willow is going to...

Tonight's episode actually isn't the first time someone's pulled a gun on the slayer. The first time that I can remember was in the first season when Darla was shooting at her with a gun in each hand (before being staked by Angel). Another time an assassin hired by Spike came to Sunnydale High...

The modernizations in the movie were fine by me. It's simply that "radioactive" was the buzzword when Spidey was first created and "genetic manipulation" and "nanotechnology" are popular buzzwords today. You notice they kept in the professional wrestling aspect of his origin the same because...

Although I could be wrong, I believe Macendale was a character called <sigh> 'Jack O'Lantern' who also stole ideas/weapons from GG. The only hobgoblin I knew was a guy named Ned Leeds who was the husband of Betty Brant (known only to Spidey historians). BTW, I just saw the movie and thought...

All very good and accurate answers. One of my favorite sites is buffyguide.com . It not only has good plot summaries but also some memorable lines from the show. Unfortunately, they are way behind in updating the site. Still, it's a good place to get caught up on seasons 1-4 and about half...

If I could use the ITCK rules, either seer because they get all the summoning spells (except Gate) and the wish spells or shaper because they get all the cool damaging spells. Otherwise I'd probably go with a savant.

IMHO the Lakers ended on a mediocre note mainly because they were not putting 100% into each game (I'd say even less than 90%). Either because they are getting lazy and jaded with their success or because they know they have a great team and getting into the playoffs was a lock. Now that they...

Regarding Fred tearing into Wesley, It was kind of surprising to hear it from Fred but she was dead-on right. Wesley should have gone to his friends with the problem before going to Angel's worst enemy. That bit about telling him the truth about the prophecy just reinforces that fact. I'm...

For lowering cholesterol, I suggest changing your diet as well as getting more exercise. For me, that's always the hardest part. As far as working out in your basement, somebody already suggested getting a jump rope for the cardio workout along with the weight bench. Just remember to start...

Just so I'm completely clear on the subject, I believe the damage bonus from being a mighty bow also stacks with the enchantment bonuses. So if a character had a +5 mighty composite longbow, +5 arrows, and an 18 STR, his total bonus would be +10 to hit and +14 damage. Correct?

For fantasy-type comic books, I also recommend you check out Crossgen Comics. Sojourn is a great fantasy title as is Scion. For sci-fi, there main title is Sigil. They've also started a new one called The Path which is in an "Oriental Adventures" setting. I also agree that Midnight Nation...

For me, it's a toss-up between the monk and rogue. Both have a nice variety of powers/skills and are fun to play. Since I just got out of martial arts class I have to vote monk.
