    [hivemind] Look on my works ye mighty and despair

    Hey, my wife's an Aggie and I got my MA there. We both agree that that town is good for about two years, then you have exhausted everything remotely interesting about it and begin to drink heavily. I went through three phases: "This town sucks" to "Well, it's not so bad" to "Yeah, well, it's...

    [hivemind] Look on my works ye mighty and despair

    There are lots of reasons to stay in Texas. What-A-Burger is a pretty good one. I lived in College Station for three years. College Station, by the way, is not a good reason to stay in Texas. (Although Freebirds World Burrito in College Station IS a very good reason. Best. Burritos...

    Piratecat at GenCon: EN World pickup games, sign up now!

    I'd certainly be interested in meeting and playing with the iconic Piratecat (and Clay, the uber-potter). I am sure I have some of those slots free, as I am only signed up for four events. I'll also speak for Cthulhu's Librarian -- we are riding to GenCon together and I know he'd be in...

    [hivemind] Look on my works ye mighty and despair

    Makes sense. I like What-A-Burger cokes as well and I'm a huge fan of the BOB (Breakfast on a Bun). No What-A-Burgers in Virginia, however. Good luck on your test, DC.

    [hivemind] Look on my works ye mighty and despair

    Hey, EternalKnight. I followed the links in your sig and downloaded DM Buddy. It looks great! I'll just have to figure out how to optimize the combat tracker for my game. Even if I don't, it's worth it for the index of feats, skills, weapons, etc. Like I said, I am probably just weird.

    [hivemind] Look on my works ye mighty and despair

    I hear you. My wife and I just moved last weekend. We now live in a sea of boxes. We eat dinner on the living room floor. At least we got our bed assembled. I like the McMuffins, but am seriously addicted to McDonalds' Coke. Maybe I am a freak, but Coke tastes better out of a McDonalds...

    [hivemind] Look on my works ye mighty and despair

    I got a McMuffin at McDonalds. There is one just across the street from my office, which has been the bane of my eating habits. 18 months of water restrictions? Yikes! I'll also send a "howdy" to Kitana. I lived in Texas for three years; my wife's from Irving.

    [hivemind] Look on my works ye mighty and despair

    We had serious drought here (Virginia, USA) last summer, with water restrictions and everything. That got taken care of by lots of snow this winter and the fact that it rained EVERY DAY in May. Seriously. 29 out of 31 days with some precipitation. No, really, I am going to get breakfast now.

    Hi. I am new to the Hive. I'm am devoting my last few days at work to ENWorld, and the Hive seemed like a good place to be. What's happening in Australia? Still need to go get breakfast. . .

    "The Gunslinger" re-issue

    Glad to be of help! You know, I'd always thought the "Dark Tower" mythos would make a cool setting for an RPG.

    Lord Soth was on Comedy Central

    Too bad I missed it. I love Insomniac. Did anyone see the one where he was in Chicago? He went to some hotel that was hosting a sci-fi convention at 3 in the morning "looking for the party." He would wander into hotel rooms, asking if this was where the party was at. He wanders into some...

    [hivemind] Look on my works ye mighty and despair

    It's morning here on the East Coast of the US; I just got to work. Today and monday are my last days here. I am only here for a few hours before I go to my other job - at a comic and game store, where the pay is bad, the owner is weird, but the perks (reading games and comics) are pretty good...

    Wow. Did I kill the hive? Is it a newbie curse?:(

    Adventures at the Mall

    How about a "Radio Shack" (tm) type store that actually sells super-science equipment to those 'in the know'? Aliens could shop there to get replacement parts for their UFO, secret agents could be staking it out to see who goes in, or the PC's (if they are in the know) could need something from...

    "The Gunslinger" re-issue

    Stephen King's The Gunslinger was recently reissued with additional and revised material. Anyone get this yet? I am curious as to what was added and revised. I am a big Dark Tower fan and liked the original book a lot. I liked the "leanness" of it -- the style felt like an Eastwood western...

    Name those B-Movie-esque TV Shows!

    Yep. I am old. Not as old as Morrus, but old. Anyone ordered those DVD's?

    Re: Re: Joining the Hive Cool. I'll have to go back and check that out, once our books are unpacked (which at the rate we are going could be, well, September). My wife and I just moved.

    [hivemind] Look on my works ye mighty and despair

    Joining the Hive I have succumbed to the Hive. Hello, Hive! I have three days left at my job. I have no work to do whatsoever. I just have to sit here in front of the computer for several hours each day, so I figured, "why they heck not" and dove into the Hive. It's been awhile since I...
