    Prehistoric Animals

    I've been looking for a good source of real-world names for mythical critters for ages now. Got any links? Any good books out there on the subject?

    We passed the John Cooper challenge!

    I don't know why, but I expected this thread to have something to do with eating a lot of fibre. :\

    Die rolling deja vu

    For a while, earlier this year, I had a 5th level Wizard with a 10 Constitution and 8 hp. :) It seems everyone else is lucky with their hp rolls when they gain levels. My nephew's Cleric (12 Con) had 41 hp at 5th level. And another player's Barbarian (18 Con)...I don't even remember, but the...

    I'll await a cash settlement. :)

    ENWorld vs. Real World

    I have local relatives who own computers. And there's a place I can go to access the 'net at night for free. Plus the libraries around here allow you to use their computers to access the 'net and visit some messageboards (if you're nice to the librarians). If it wasn't for socialised...

    Am I the only concision freak?

    My notes get typed up on the computer, so: First I expand my notes, then I pare them down for printing purposes. But I save all versions. A few of my most important notes are saved ten or twelve times in nearly identical files!

    happy birthday to me...

    Happy birthday, and welcome to middle age. :p (You're not seriously planning on living past 60, are ya?)

    ENWorld vs. Real World

    Just about ditto, except for the taxes part. I am an unemployed/unemployable homeless person because I have not so far accepted any governmental help (except for some free medication to keep me from going completely nuts). If I hadn't broken off the interviews, I could've been an air traffic...

    When Gamers Become Farmers

    Big house!! We used to have 80 acres of mostly farmland that we used as for our summer cabin. The land taxes were paid for by letting real farmers harvest the hay from our front and back fields. Sounds like you've got much better plans for the land, though. ;)

    The weirdest spam I think I've ever read.

    Huh. So, if those two companies got together and combined their pills into one, would I get half the amount of spam I currently receive? W3RD. I just noticed, I haven't seen any of those in a couple of weeks. D'ya think they think I'm dead?

    Tis the season for repeat movies

    Bernard and the Genie. I've got it on VHS. Every year I say I'm going to watch it, but every year I forget. :(

    Prehistoric Animals

    Really? What did they rename?

    Prehistoric Animals

    I always think of prehistoric flightless birds. Love the AD&D axebeak. On a side note, it would be great if someone came up with non-scientific names for these critters ("Terror Bird" isn't bad). It never seemed right to me that adventurers ambushed in the middle of the night would leap from...

    How do you pronounce "Drow"?

    That's how I understand it too. So does my Merriam-Webster dictionary (1974 ed.). My Webster's New Twentieth Century Dictionary (1958 ed.) would seem to agree.

    The weirdest spam I think I've ever read.

    Yarg. I've been getting spam about Bob Dude and Cialis lately. I don't know what those things mean, but they keep popping up in my junk mail.

    Why _DON'T_ You Buy Dragon Magazine?

    I let my subscription lapse because the magazine no longer applies to me. I play AD&D.
