    Your Own Private Island

    Political discussions are frowned upon, here, so I will simply say that this is a mental exercise and private research for my own amusement. Bah! My Kool-Aid will be dispensed in one of these: Seasteads are a currently a pipedream; a nice pipedream but still a pipedream. Private islands...

    Why is realism "lame"?

    yeah, it's a personal favorite. I found it in an article entitled "Dopamine System in Highly Creative People Similar to That Seen in Schizophrenics". Which also seems to fit. ;)

    Why is realism "lame"?

    One's willing suspension of disbelief seem to be a bit more developed, when one is a gamer, also. "A shrunken head, talking octopus, and a merman with the lower torso of a jellyfish swim into a bar." Yeah, I can see that. ;) But then again when I shine a flashlight in the backyard and see a...

    [Trailer] Warm Bodies

    I saw the trailer on BLASTR, the other week. I was intrigued so I downloaded the book and read it (virtual) cover to cover. Mind you, I thought the movie "Fido" was brilliant. I am looking forward to this one as well.

    Your Own Private Island

    When I was in high school, I remember reading an article in the newspaper (dead-tree edition), regarding abandoned houses for sale on the Outer Banks of NC. They needed a great deal of repair and had no utilities. “That would be cool”, I thought. When I was in college, I traveled to Belize...

    What If Your World Only Had 10 Monsters?

    Given that I do not run humanocentric campaigns and tend to include undersea elements and hags in most of my plots, it might be interesting to narrow it down to the following choices. Most of the choices would be available for players, as well. Human: NPC use only 1. Sea elf: a touch of the...

    How is Baba Yaga pronounced?

    I think that's the pronunciation they used on Lost Girl, when I had the misfortune of channel-surfing and watching a few minutes of it, the other day. I cannot like that show to save my life.

    The Amazing Spider-Man (SPOILERS BEWARE!)

    I saw the movie last night. To be honest, I think I preferred Spider-Man (2002) over The Amazing Spider-Man (2012). The older movie seemed less disjointed, to me. The newer movie was intentionally darker and emo, which is fine for some, but I think the Batman reboot has spoiled an entire...

    The Amazing Spider-Man (SPOILERS BEWARE!)

    Music can make or break a movie. To this day, "Batman Returns" is my favorite Batman movie, due in part to Elfman's wondrous soundtrack.
