All I want to do right now is kill my new DVR unit. Even after dealing with Time Warner's phone tech, it still won't let me use hardly any channels. It's now blocking out most, if not all, my standard cable networks in addition to all the digital networks other than one on-demand channel, the NBA channel and the higher end UNC-TV channels. :mad:

They're coming out on Sun AM to check it. At least Mom will be home as I'll be at work. I've gotta tell her more in detail of what's going on since I woke her from her nap to ask if she's off.... and she went back to sleep right afterwards.

So, my FLGS stopped carrying any RPG books beside the core three D&D books. I'm a sad panda now. The other store is halfway across town, and there's no way to get at it via the transit system.
Why would they do a stupid thing like that?

Well, if there aren't enough people willing to purchase them, then it's a wise move. Without knowing their motives or reasons, we can't judge them and simply call their decision stupid.

However, makes me like my LGS even more. They had so many different books it's not even funny. I think they even have a couple Ptolus books, unless they've sold out. They seem to go out of the way to buy virtually every book possible.

I was making a funny. I'm sure it was not a decision made lightly.

Actually, my response was similar to yours, just a little stronger in language. ;)

Then, thinking about it, I realized they probably DID have a reason.
 

Why never again?

I'm too polite AND too much of a kidder to simply curse someone out to get off the foot of my bed and get the FLARK out of my room and actually have it happen.

When I had that setup in Austin, a buddy of mine would visit from College Station, and I'd say something like "I have an early class..." and the response would be a grunt and the continued playing of Pool of Radiance.

How much did he play?

He finished the game on my Mac- I never did.

So, no more computers in my bedroom. Not of the desktop variety, at any rate.

Besides, there are far better kinds of furniture to have in a bedroom than a desk.
