    Darth Vader like you've never seen him before

    HA! Funny stuff. I recognized "Sneakers" and "Field of Dreams." Any other James Earl Jones movies in there?

    And the College Football season begins!!!

    That was a good game! We watched some of it while we were out at dinner. When we got home, my wife wanted to check on the score (she's a bigger college football fan that I am!), but I was just going to read and go to bed since I thought Tennessee was done. But they had come back and both...

    Dunst "reveals" Spider-man 3 villains

    Yeah, with two villains and Dunst's quote at the end about "packing a lot in there", it could be a little confusing and/or messy. Although I have faith in Raimi. He is directing the third one, right?

    Life changes

    Well, if you want to write checks for my home repairs instead of doing it yourself, that's cool too. :D I'm the same way with cars; I won't even change my own oil. The hassle is not worth the money saved, for me at least, since I always end up taking way too long to perform the routine tasks...

    Life changes

    If you're looking for something to do, my wife and I just bought a house. We could certainly use some help remondeling, landscaping, painting, etc. :D Seriously, I think I understand how you're feeling Eric. In many ways, we are what we do. WHether you considered yourself a "lifestyle"...

    What's wrong with me?

    Update: Just got back from the doctor. The doctor's name was. . . wait for it. . . Dr. Sick. No kidding. I wanted to say something, but I still felt like crap and I am sure he has heard the jokes and questions a million times before. He was really nice. After the examination, he said it...

    English Majors and Poets...

    Much of The Waste Land is very suitable for in-game use. I've poached parts of it before, and unless your players are lit majors or poets, they probably won't know. Yeats is good as well.

    What's wrong with me?

    I do take one of these, almost everyday. Since I have started feeling wierd, I've upped my dosage of Vitamin C. I've talked to some of my colleagues about it, and several of them have said it's probably allergies. Many of them are or have gotten sick around this time of year do to something...

    What's wrong with me?

    Thanks for the concern, Rel and others. I was planning on getting a physical when I turn 30 in February. Maybe I'll just move that appointment up a little. It's okay to nag a bit. It makes me feel good to know folks (some of whom I've never met IRL) are concerned.

    What's wrong with me?

    I know that no one here is a doctor and, even if someone is, internet medical advice is dodgy at best. I just wanted to share my pain. If this feeling persists, I will go to a real doctor, particualrly because of what reveal is saying about the heart. There's lots of family history of heart...

    He didn't say necking with each other, you dirty-minded librarian.

    What's wrong with me?

    I DO NOT HAVE MONO! Seriously, if I did, that would be bad, given that it's my first semester at my first real professor type job. I can't be sick for weeks. I think the Coke is making things worse. Now, I have this tightness in my chest. This happened yesterday as well, after dinner...

    What's wrong with me?

    Well, I don't drink coffee. But I do drink Coke. I'll go get one now and see what happens. If my heart explodes I'm blaming Rel. It could be allergies, as well. I remember a few years ago I felt this way, went to the doctor, and she told me my allergies had done something to my lungs so I...

    Best Love Songs (and "your" songs)

    No! "Into the Mystic" is the best and anyone who says different is a fool! :p Kidding. They're both great. I think it's the saxaphone in "Into the Mystic" that does it for me.

    I met Neil Gaiman! (sorta)

    I got to go to a Neil Gaiman discussion and signing last night at Joseph-Beth booksellers in Charlotte. Neil did a reading from Anansi Boys, answered some questions, and signed books. I got my copy of Anansi Boys signed. He was funny and personable and a good reader. He talked about...

    What's wrong with me?

    For the past two days, I have felt like I have a cold -- generally worn out, listless, tired. Except that I have none of the other cold symptoms. I'm not stuffy or anything. I just want to sleep, even though I got 9+ hours of sleep last night and 8 the night before. Today is not a good day...
