Well, I dragged my butt too long and now I’m backlogged with three (relatively) new books for D&D from WoTC and Paizo. Where are the others? Good question. It appears that the other publishers have really petered out lately. I … Continue reading

It was more like frozen drizzle but it still yields the same result in Central Texas, frozen roads and bridges followed by people wrecking their cars everywhere. It’s also a chance to rejoice and get the rare Snow Day! No … Continue reading
Week Nine of NHL 2005-6
Well, the Boston-San Jose trade invovling Joe Thornton was quite a shocker but in others wasn’t. Both teams are struggling and something had to give, I just didn’t think the Bruins would give up their star player (I’m drawing a … Continue reading
