    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    Every once in a while, I'll have some random thought that just comes out of nowhere and scares the hell out of me, and I have to stop and go, "WTF?"... :oops: My brain is twisty and full of spiders.

    Happy Mother's Day

    I played a drug dealer named Mother in the play "A Hatful of Rain" back in college - the cast bought me a Mother's Day card.

    Your most "visceral" experience at a movie theater.

    I accidentally, got kneed in the stones once doing the Eddie/Columbie scene in Rocky... That felt pretty visceral, lol. :p

    Today I learned +

    I got to see a liger once at the Ren Faire. That thing was frackin' huuuuge... I'll be really impressed, though, when somebody discovers actual jackalopes out in the wild.

    Old Lady Gamer

    I used to tell people that I gamed with, "I have dice older than you..." Now I tell them that I have dice older than their parents...

    Fighting the Gray Tide (Miniature Painting)

    Technically, building dioramas was a hobby of mine even before I got into painting minis as a teenager. (I was one of those kids who built elaborate set-ups for their Matchbox cars anytime there was a dirt pile available...) If I had the room and the time, I'd probably be like one of those model...

    What Are Your Non-Gaming Hobbies/Interests?

    I recreationally plot the murders of friends and coworkers... :p I was a member of the RKO Army, the Rhode Island Rocky Horror Picture Show cast for eight years, and used to perform at the national conventions. I have the lips and movie logo tattooed on my right shoulderblade. I've attended...

    watching time pass via tv show

    Well, I suppose watching Noah Wylie slowly aging on ten seasons of ER counts, even if you have to look really closely to notice it...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    I was bitten by a raging barista once... For years afterward, during the full moon, I'd be compelled to intentionally screw everyone's name up and "accidentally" pour coffee on them... On an alternate note, there's a few local baristas I'm perfectly willing to be bitten by. :love:

    Computer games and the save checkpoint system

    Yars Revenge on the Atari 2600 - I played the same game for over eight hours (maxed-out at 99 lives for seven of them and rolled over the score more than eight times) and my friend Sal ate my dinner because this new-fangled "pause" thing was still eight or ten years away back then... :p Would...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    The entire extent of my Vampire gaming was one LARP session, and yet I somehow ended up with almost two feet worth of shelf-space of Vampire and Werewolf books when a "friend" who was into the game asked me if they could leave them at my house for a couple days and then fell off the face of the...

    I kinda feel sorry for the next guy - liberal, conservative, whatever, he's gonna get judged and hammered on every single thing he does. Following Francis is gonna be like following Kennedy.

    I'd forgotten Patrick Stewart was in that... Matilda May was sooo hot in that film.
