This is not quite true. We were paddling a Grumman canoe, similar to the models here which do have something they refer to as a keel; basically a metal strip that runs the length of the canoe, from bow to stern. And that particular canoe had a bent "keel", which caused it to be very difficult...

Longest I ever went was around 50 hours. This was at a training camp for an "elite" scout group that ran a camp in northern Saskatchewan, which culminates with night maneuvers, a series of training scenarios involving various wilderness/survival skills. This is following a full week of serious...

Believe me, I was not discounting Arizona at all. I recall reading that their defense was playing well and, clearly, they shut the Saints down good (although Brooks managed to throw for 240 some yards). But I was hoping for a good performance, a hint of consistency, you know, something...

Swim what now? ;) It's nice to see that we in OO's Grim Tales game were not the only ones to have aquatic adventures of ineptitude. Though we were mostly flailing about in mostly vain attempts to rescue damsels in distress and acquire pond daggers. Heh. :)

Ahhh, this week was a relief...the Saints got right back into form losing big to the previously 0-3 Cardinals. Not to disparage the Cardinals any, but I'd hoped they would put up a better performance. Brooks put up good numbers, though. Still some football left to be played, so I shouldn't...

I'm out for this Saturday as Nico is arriving from Boston in the afternoon. But, as usual, I have no qualms with y'all playing without me.

Wheee! I had a blast! Thanks to everyone that ran games and all the organizers, especially Old One, Delayed Reaction Man, and everyone else who had a hand that I don't know about! Thanks to Old One and Rasyr for running two very entertaining games! I had a great time. I enjoyed meeting...

A lot of it, I think, depends on both personal preferences and the particular desires of any given group. I started with 2E, but quickly also got into Call of Cthulhu, Battletech/Mechwarrior, as well as Shadowrun. My group in HS floated between all of those games without ever really committing...

Huzzah! I wondered if that would ever happen...it was lonely there for awhile. :p

I'm flattered. Coming from an author/participant in some of my favorite story hours, this is high praise indeed. I don't think Kaereth changes too much over time, but I have become increasingly comfortable with the character, which helps. And thus far no one's managed to get their hands on a...

Schlock Mercenary--because Captain Tagon's avatar reminded me :p Not really RPG related, but if you're into military-sc-fi it is excellent and among my favorites. Alpha Shade --Steampunk type story, with beautiful, beautiful art. It's still relatively new and I'm kinda behind, but I like it...

DRM, I've emailed you. Thanks for your kind offer! Thank you, too Xath for your help. :)

Vielen Dank. :) Sounds pretty straightforward. Hopefully, the early hour won't decimate my otherwise well-honed ability to follow directions. :p

It is the simple things, isn't it? :) Great update! Looking forward to the chaos yet to come. :lol:

Metro Directions? Hey y'all, I believe I'll be Metroing in, so I'll need some directions from the College Park stop to the Student Center building. The metro directions aren't particularly helpful as I'm not too clear on where the shuttle bus stops etc. Anyway, specific directions would be...

Concur. It's a difficult decision that sucks to have to make, but there's no reason for anyone to get dramatic. Though Archon is allowed to brood...that's comic relief at this point. :p Better to expend the energy on defeating the primary enemy at hand.

I have more than a few friends that look forward to that day! :) And for those who have yet to be convinced, allow me to attach this link: NHL Fan's Guide to College Hockey [/end evangelism] ;)

Whoo! The Saints managed a comeback win!! I didn't think we could do it. Sounds like the team still has plenty of kinks to work out, so I won't get hopeful yet. That can happen in Week 17. :p

My argument, exactly. :)

And if you're in Boston and need the fix, there are four top quality division-I hockey teams all T accessible. If you're looking for atmosphere, I suggest checking out Conte Forum or Walter Brown Arena (or next Spring Harry Agganis Arena) for a BC-BU game. Next February there's a little annual...
