I just put the lights on the tree and am listening to my favorite Christmas CD -- the "Charlie Brown Christmas" soundtrack. Jazz versions of "O Christmas Tree," "Christmas Time is Here," and, of course, "Linus and Lucy" make this my favorite Christmas music album. What's yours? And, if anyone...

This actually sounds pretty cool, especially since Busiek is writing it. I will put my Aqua-hate away.

Kurt is leaving Conan to take over Aquaman? The greatest barbarian in the world to the guy who talks to fish? That sucks. Kurt's Conan is my favorite comic book now and it will be sad to see him go. I'm glad we get a few issues of Mignola. I'm not familiar with Truman's work, but I'll check...

"I'll take 'The Rapists' for 200, Alex" "It's 'therapists', you idiot." I enjoy the Jepoardy sketches because we get to see the rare, restrained Will Farrell, who is still funny.

"Brigitta!!!!" Teddy charges into the blue archway after Brigitta. Damn woman.

Just a quick follow up and an amusing story: I was able to contact some of the students who game on campus. It turns out they run a fairly extensive RPGA/Living Arcanis series of games in the commons of one of the large dorms on campus. They were running a game at 3:00 today, so I stopped by...

Thanks for sharing. (I need a screaming in revulsion and fear smiley).

.. There may be some Log Roping going on.

Thanks, Stormcrow42. I've stopped by Underground a time or two, but all I saw were card gamers. I'll check back again, though I feel a little wierd about walking up to a game already in progress and saying "What's up?" There is also a new store in Tega Cay called Above Board Games that could...

Right up until the really bad CGI shot of the Shelby Cobra jumping over the cars while on the bridge. And, um, to bring the thread back "on topic" -- I bet Rel has seen Gone in 60 Seconds with a pretty girl.

Looks good to me, although it sounds like the horses are getting left behind (which Teddy thinks is a good idea). Sorry, Brindle.

Really, even though it's on TNT every other day? That's where I first heard of "The Stranger," really. . .

Thanks, Stormborn. The university culture is one I am still trying to figure out and has important bearing on the situation. For a long time, my university was primarily a commuter school, so little outside of class interaction between student and teacher was probably the norm. That has begun...

Wow. A Gone in 60 Seconds reference. Impressive.

Thanks, Castellan. I will check out the Greenville meetup group. I tried the Charlotte one and it was a big bust. I went to two "meetups" and was the only one there. I dig Greenville, btw. I did my undergrad at Furman.

There is no gaming club that I know of; I already checked on that. So, you think gaming off campus (at my or a student's house/apartment) would be better than at an on campus spot? I was thinking the opposite.

I'm a new professor at a smaller university and have had a difficult time finding a gaming group since I've moved. I've recently discovered some of my students game and there is the possibility of gaming with these and other students at my university. I'm just wondering about any potential...

I've recently (re)discovered Risus, which is set up to be able to mimic this sort of storytelling. In Risus, the winner of the combat always decides what happens to the loser, which provides for the villian's escape (if he wins), or the madman's monologue, or any other scenario. Because...

Teddy will do as he is instructed, loading a crate up with rocks and hauling it back to camp. If the bluff works, maybe we should take the opportunity to search the Doctor's tent for anything useful. Teddy's search is crappy, so someone should accompany him. Teddy brought his stuff with him...

You said "member."
