Ah, malware how I hate thee! I never get any on my computer. But with my old job, my customers frequently brought in that junk. I spent considerable time cleaning that junk out. Of course they'd be reinfected shortly, however. On a similar note, you'd be surprised how much stuff antivirus...

Neat. My favorite is the story of the soldier. The soldier received shrapnel in combat and had to get fixed up. He was mostly upset because he didn't want to miss his weekly D&D session. I wish I could find the article.

It's now 34 F / 1 C. I have a feeling it's warmer there.:p I told you Jack Frost was teasing me.

Yes. And yes. I understand a second printing of the Pathfinder RPG comes out in November. You'll have to wait that long until it becomes available on Amazon. Lastly, as many said, PDFs are great, but they don't replace the tactile feel of flipping through pages*. * Or interesting color...

Ah Canada - are you sure that's not completely frozen over yet? :D I kid, I kid. Utah is pretty cold, but nothing like Minnesota or other states along the border. We do frequently have freezing/thawing, however. That destroy roads among other things.

That is interesting about the landlord game. If a Monopoly Game was released today--and no one had any knowledge of previous Monopoly games--would it be as popular?

You guys suck. I nearly spent 50 bones to buy this. :p Still looks cool... *eyes it in the window*

*whistles* That sounds mighty sweet. Last few years of warmer than normal temperatures meant a very snowy winter. I am still recovering from the snow of 2007-08. We almost beat our decade long drought.

It's that time of year. Ah yes, it's all Fall. The leaves are all yellow-orange and falling off the trees. However, it feels warm, too warm to be Fall. The temperature lately has been 60s. I am used to previous Winters* where the temperature quickly snaps from warm mid 70's to 50 and below cold...

Needs a reverse side for non D&D games :)

Wow. You guys make this sound really cool. How much time to convert from 3.0/3.5? I have lots of 3.x books I have never used from Eberron to Necromancer Games scenarios.

5 year old laptop isn't that old. I have my Toshiba Satellite purchased in 05; more than 4 years old. I know you can buy the high gain antennas for the Linksys brand router for home. The second option for outside the home is USB wi-fi adapters, they are much smaller than they used to be.

Facebook application oh... For those clueless, like me, they are two Facebook applications. I don't use Facebook so neither.

I sympathize. I have been there before -- being trapped on the side of the road; not fun. If car does require mechanical help, you may be able to persuade a mechanic to do work on the side. All the mechanics I know are really knowledgeable and hard-workers, but feel underpaid. The...

My favorite is how during any car crash, no matter how severe, it explodes and/or starts on fire. The Simpsons have parodied that idiom on several episodes. On the USA show "Monk" they frequently have to resort to deus ex machina on the show. When captured by the bad-guy, it'd be easier for...

Re-reading "Call of Cthulhu d20" and "Game of Thrones". I need to find some books on Rome, specifically the invasion of Britain. Any thoughts here? In non-fiction I finished the audio book version of "How the Mighty Fall". Very good book. If you are a business manager or business student, I...

Death to all weird video players I tried to watch an episode online. That was a good waste of 10 minutes. The plugin installed in Firefox and played the sample video, then nothing.

Brewed a fresh pot of Columbian at work this morning. I frequently go out for coffee, but there's something about making your own.

Here's what it looks like if you are curious: I use that at work occasionally when I'm too lazy to make a full pot. Trust me it is still gross.

Delta Green is a pretty good choice for a 1949 game, I think. Depending on your interest and desire you could get your PCs involved in the leadup to the Korean war. Potential spies from USSR are always fun, too. I own Lovecraft d20 and I have played BRP. Both are different games, I think, and...
