    Hey, I did not step up far any more responsability (I'm allergic to it). It was Mark putting my head on the chopping block. That is Mark for you, always trying to get you killed, I don't blame him, it is bound to happen to you after so many years DMing.

    I say let the Buzz Man run as many as his sweet heart would like, he is doing a great job. You will find that you will quickly run out of volunteers for this. I am not overly interested in running it, but would if push came to shove and I bet that goes for most people. Buzz for re-election in...

    Gaming Tables

    Most of these large tables go down into basements. Make sure you make your basement as warm and cozy as you can with your budget. Concrete walls and floors feel dingy after a while. Good lighting and a large carpet remanent can go a long way

    Gaming Tables

    First of all, if you are going to be sitting down and playing any games at your table, a lip is very very uncomfortable on peoples forearms. If you are standing and using it like a war table, then lip will work fine. You could build portable dice trays and line them with felt. Give one to...

    Hiroshima

    I don't think this is political but if so just lock it down I just finished reading a book that tells the stories of bombing of Hiroshima from the perspective of those that survived. The book is Hiroshima by John Hersey and is a pretty darned good read. My question is for any japanese...

    That is too cool. Well, I will just have to spend more money at Gamesplus to show my gratitude. I do have to say that Gamesplus has gotton $500+ of business from me since the first game day. I never knew about the store as I don't live too close, but now I spend at game days and 4-5 other...

    D&D has threatened my job!

    Speaking as an X teacher, I would say you are crossing into very dangerous territory, but not suicidal. Be very careful, get written permission form the parents, on the permission form explain briefly what the game is about. It would be best to meet with all of the parents in person and have...

    I believe in the Hobbit tradition of giving others presents on your Birthday. With that wonderful tradition in mind and knowing gameday will never fall on my B-day, I again request a six pack of a cold beer. No Budweiser please. If you insist, I can bring the cooler with ice. Mark, are you...

    Anakin Pic from Episode VI

    Yeah, I want Han shooting first. Because as mentioned elsewhere, it help identify who he is and sets a more dramatic growth for the character. I think it says a lot about Lucas that he changed it so they shoot the same time. I believe he heard our loud and constant complaining and decided to...

    THX1138: The George Lucas Director's Cut goes into theaters this weekend

    I never read about the movie. Everytime I read the title I assumed it was some stupid documentary on his THX surround configuration. he must really like those three letters THX. Do they stand for something I am unaware of?

    Big Setback for Hasbro?

    I have only worked for much smaller manufacturers and knew they did not have insurance for this type of thing, but I figured larger companies may.

    Big Setback for Hasbro?

    I believe this stuff can be covered or partially covered by insurance. But I will bet my next paycheck that we will not see a gnomish water rocket of destruction on the next Revised PHB published equipment list. :p

    Bitty Schram (Sherona) leaves Monk

    Look guys the change does not need to be bad. We could start a write in campaign to replace her with a really hot youg chick who wears really really low cut shirts and short skirts. How could that be bad? I mean even women like to look at attractive women :D
