If people do not like what I have to say, you gave them the great and wonderful gift of the Ignore Button. I would love to say that the New Doctor Who show is the best thing that has happened to Television, and that Moffat's reign is the best thing that happened to Doctor Who. I really and truly...

I wait for Netflix for everything except Last Week Tonight, which I get because a friend gave me his dad's HBO code. I will be abandoning Doctor Who. Until Moffat leaves. Season 8 made me sad inside in a way I cannot describe--worse than... just about anything I've ever felt while watching a TV...

There was an idea for a series about two young time lords going rogue and exploring the universe of time and space together. One would grow up to be the Doctor, and the other The Master, but which was which would be uncertain, and it would look like one, then shift to the other. (Kinda like how...

A day when a lot of people see how much worse Moffat can make Doctor Who? Having hit rock bottom, Moffat keeps digging, dragging the show down with him. I feel sorry for Smith and Capaldi, because they got shafted with crap scripts that ruin their Doctors for me.

Yep. Looks like the set has been "retired". Some schmuck is selling the instructions on Amazon for $100. Just the instructions... So, unless there's a big change, I'm thinking too late. Nephews may have to settle for mindstorms...

Alrighty then. First off, "A Light in the Belfry", a 2nd edition TSR Ravenloft module published in 1995. It was an early experiment in using CDs as quasi interactive story-telling tools. As such, it was... problematic. TSR was trying to do too much, and many of the books for each setting were...

I just finished running the Play-By-Post party through Light in the Belfry (old 2nd Ed Ravenloft mod). Is anyone interested in seeing what I did to it? I'll post the info, but only if someone wants it (and hopefully can learn (like what not to do) from it).

As was I.

So, this is probably not the best place to ask, but I still kinda like it here. I wanted to buy 2 lego deathstar sets for my nephews, but it looks like the set might have been discontinued in the last couple months. Amazon is selling them for $590--almost twice the original price. Not my first...

I think it's the Scottish Rampant Lion. Good work on the texturing. Does Rhino use UV maps or something else? Is there a bump-map, or is the texture all image?

Firefly was new and innovative. FOX didn't like that, and sabotaged the show before it even started airing before cancelling it outright. I'm guessing Joss pissed off someone within the industry political structure.

There is a release of Clone Wars Seasons 1-6. If nothing else, you can buy a download from Amazon. To me, "Duel of the Fates" was like a hammer to the face--unsubtle attempt to impress me with a music cue because the action was devoid of emotion (kinda like an M Night Shama... whatever movie...

Self-defense and coming to the aid of another are fine, but there is a limit to the level of reaction. You are not allowed to use more force than necessary. You do not, for example, get to use a gun because someone raised a fist to you. Furthermore, once you have diffused the situation, you are...

People have all kinds of skills. Sure, he was military for weapons training and physique (and to support our troops: yay). More background or explanation might have been good. The divorce bit was an explanation for why the mother was so stressed out and over-emotional at the beginning, and why...

ninja: another mis-used word. I explained tactics of using a door frame to reduce numbers. I tried to imply that anyone who had the time and training to learn to use a sword would not be involved in home invasion: they'd either have too much money to be interested, or they'd have people to do...

While I admire your passion, the political discourse (or rather, what passes for political discourse in the US) takes the position that "naturally abortion should be allowed under ___ circumstances", and twists it to mean that it should be allowed ONLY under ___ circumstances. How many...

Really? Please show what scientific studies back up your claim. If it is possible, then it has already been done. 2: US citizens are routinely denied their constitutional protections. Examples, sadly, will lead directly to an off-topic rant. Short version: read or watch "Dirty Wars" by Scahill.

Sorry for stealing your thunder. Good thing I haven't studied law outside of Boston Legal, Perry Mason, and Law&Order.

But it isn't. So it is.

It's the woman's decision. Period. Hate to sound like a bumper sticker, but if you won't trust her with a choice, why trust her with a child? (Oh, I know, there's the option of putting the kid up for adoption...) Too many times, attempts to restrict or limit abortion are used as tools to...
