Monday or Wednesday is fine with me.

*blinks* Somebody's making crocheted laptop cases and plush game consoles. And somebody else is actually paying for them. *blinks more*

Creating Adventure Games on Your Computer. From 1983. Neat. :)

Larry--Want a Greek army to go with that Trojan horse?

Dustin--I think the party could take some half-dragons down. Depending on their CR/alignment/intelligence, we might even think to negotiate with them. Nah, we seldom get good results from negotiation. :)

Dustin...My computer has a virus called trojan or something.Anyways I have monday off maybe we can go make our deadlands characters if Leon will be at erics.Wedensday i get off at 8 i think so maybe then too if monday wont work.

Dustin & Shatzer - I'm going to be placing an order for the motherboards tomorrow. I need to verify the order with you two before doing it to make sure everything is kosher.

Dustin - You said you wanted a new motherboard and processor- but you also said you wanted 8X AGP. Neither of our "spare" mobos support 8X. The Abit IS7 we're looking at getting does. I need to know if you want one of these, too?

As a follow-up to Dustin's much earlier post--Orlando Bloom discusses his last day in costume. “They cut together a little gag reel. It was, like, four minutes of all these different Leggy moments from the whole shoot and outtakes and stuff. It was hilarious! It had all this ’80s music. You know that song ‘Hungry Eyes’? ‘One look at you and I touch the sky’ ? They had this homoerotic thing where they had a shot of Viggo pulling out his sword and looking at me, and me looking at him and drawing my bow. It was brilliant, man.”

I wonder if the video will make it onto the Net (or at least Kazaa)... *muses*

Ya i wanna make a deadlands chracter.i dont know when ill be able to make it in before thursday,i dont know till i get my work schedule..i think dusty needs to make one also,maybe we can both come in sometimeand do that before thursday.Dusty get back to me when your available to go.

OK, anyone who actually wants to show up tommorow evening to create their deadlands character, i'll be there around 5 or so. If you need a character and can't make it Thursday (I hear there's some little holiday interfering) , let me know if there's a good time for you to do it before next thursday. Or we could always do it then, but if so, please show up as early as you can.

Nah, he should play a kender. :)

He should play a dwarf

Dusty!!!!! you freakin fart attack from sansabar!!!! i cannot make it today!!!!!you better get this before you stop over!!!!!

Ass + monkey = Dustin


:-P

hey dustin...i cant make it tomm... hope you get this in time

Dustin- Depends? Will I have to drive him home...?

Hmm... Optional racial levels for PHB races is an interesting idea (take a look at Monte Cook's web page and pdf); it reminds me of 1st ed's problems, but might help balance out some of the low ECL races of FR and Savage Species. Opinions?

Jeremy--You may find this thread about paladin alignments useful.

Jeremy-- Do u mind if I bring Larry along tommorow?

*begin amused sarcasm*
But why not pass out rare artifacts like leftover Halloween candy? :D Twould be fun because everyone always needs more rare artifacts. Besides, then Dustin wouldn't have to worry about writing intricate plot hooks; he could just elaborate on the major societal problems caused when the party possessed said artifacts (both the things society would do to the party, and the things the party would do to society). Can you tell yet that monitoring a lab for 10 straight hours is the best thing ever?
*end amused sarcasm*

Dustin - I did. For me to poop on!

Speaking of which... Dustin shows up at my apartment last night. He wanted his jacket back, and was concerned that I might actually have pooped on it...

Poor boy...

Caroline - Actually, there is no treasure for you to know about. *None* of this, (or any money that could possibly be made by these items) will be reaching the party, (including myself) in any way- at least for right now.

I did not just walk out of the Grey Tower and say to the party "Oh, I almost forgot. I found this stuff a few dungeons back. Anyone know what it is?... " and start passing rare artifacts around like leftover Halloween candy...

Dustin--Yes, I'm aware that only two characters know about it in-game. I still wonder ooc how Jeremy's character justified it. Stealing from the party's dead enemies makes sense, but those weren't direct party enemies and it was looting graves. Wayne's char can justify looting very easily, so no questions there. I also doubt that my char will be told about the real source of this treasure, hence the ooc question.

Jeremy--And how did your char justify taking this treasure again?

Caroline-- In game, only Wayne and Jeremy know of the loot, that sound like justification enough.

Dustin--Larry actually has the jacket. He might give it to you if you apologize, but it's up to him.
Now you could find out what "or else" means, but do you really want to know? *malicious look*

Oh, and my char is vaguely considering taking a level or two of the Holy Liberator prestige class from DoF (just to make your life more complicated). Let me know whether that's allowed sometime before she hits 16th lvl (feat reqt). She'd really like to take Archmage from FR, but she'd need two feats for that. At some point, she'll also go back to the library so that the party's divine casters can read the Book of Exalted Deeds and she can get more spells.

Leon--Thanks for the additional information, but the section on the Inquisition was really a endnote to the motivation for the Crusades, the topic at hand. Crusade-like phenomena, with or without the direct support of religion, has occurred throughout known history anyhow.

Nice post on the crusades. One might also point out that while the Crusades to the Holy Land are the most familiar, various campaigns against heretics in France and pagans and heretics in the Baltic region are also sometimes reffered to as such and were primarily undertaken by religious orders of knighthood such as the Templars. These crusades form the final bridge between Crusade and Inquisition.

right? Or else




And another thing Caroline, Or els what?

For what do we negotiate the jacket for, if all u want is the cards, their yours, Can I stop by Sunday and pick it up?

Dustin - I did. For me to poop on!

Caroline - Damn. Thanks!

Dustin--The jacket's being held for ransom.

*looks* Treasure. Neat. *casts Detect Magic*
*blinkblink* *casts Identify* *looks more in awe*
*takes rings and staff* Anyone going to argue? *innocent look* Oh, all right... *puts Ring of Dragon Command back* Selling my other two rings will help cover my share.

Jeremy--And how did your char justify taking this treasure again? You're welcome for the info on the Crusades. I'm a future librarian; finding, collating, and explaining information is what I do.

You know It is his Bow he has in his hand, but it still looks funny.

Did anyone grab my jacket after I left on Thursday?

Loot found in the tomes:
+3 flaming vorpal greatsword
+2 Heatrseeker longbow
+1 flaming, shocking, keen, smiting Semitar, grants ability to smite (good or evil) 3 times per day.
Ring of wizardry + 10
Ring of dragon comand, red
Staff of the magi

Jeremy, Dustin--A bit more background on the Crusaders' motivations. In a lot of ways, they're similar to the classical sieges/battles of the Iliad, the Odyssey, the Aeneid...

After a peace movement in tenth-century Europe gradually discouraged wars among Christians, they had to send the aggressive people somewhere. With his proclamation of the Crusades, Pope Urban II linked the idea of a military expedition with a pilgrimage. From Urban's point of view, all Crusaders would earn eternal salvation when Jerusalem was returned to Christianity after centuries in Muslim hands. But Crusades and Crusaders are modern words for these concepts. When a Crusader put on the cross, he became a pilgrim; they even called eachother pilgrims. After all, they were going to holy sites; they were just bringing along twenty thousand well-armed friends.

There were no exceptional atrocities in the Crusades, given the standards of the age. That's just the way things went when regions and cities were conquered in those days. It's not that atrocities didn't occur, it's just they were frequently exaggerated.

Because it was so prevalent, violence was seen as morally neutral during this time. Whether violence was good or bad depended on the intentions, motivations, and ends sought of the person who committed or had commanded the violence. This interesting notion of violence was combined with notions of love and family. The Crusades were preached as a way to love God, the Father, and a way to love Christian Brothers. The violence necessary for the Crusading act, an act that cleaned one of all sins and displayed love to God, was seen as a form of piety and worship.

Various papal promises during the Crusades included eternal life to crusaders and parents of crusaders, and plenary indulgence (exchanged for penance or time in purgatory) to anyone assisted the Crusades, whether by going himself, sending someone in his place, or aiding in the construction of ships which would carry the Crusaders.

Many of the noble Crusaders looked forward to getting an estate somewhere in the Holy Land. Many of the peasants escaped their harsh lives by making a pilgrimage to Jerusalem and retaking it as a millennial kingdom. Most Crusaders didn't conceptualize the difference between going on a pilgrimage and gaining worldly blessings. Why wouldn't God bless them with worldly benefits as well?

Many who joined a Crusade were granted exemption from debt, taxation, and interest payments. However, the Crusades were also really expensive for nobles and govermebts; some noble families spent two or three times their annual income to send family members there. During many of the Crusades (there were at least four), those who did not join were required to pay extra taxes. Criminals joined the Crusades in order to escape punishment for their crimes; some criminals even used this indulgence as an excuse to sin with impunity. Many others went merely for the love of adventure.

The motivation for the massacres is really tied to the sense of "us" and "them." Since Christians were going off to reconquer the Holy Land from Islam, seen as the enemy of Christianity, it was a very easy but terrible step to take that any enemy of Christianity was in the way, and should be destroyed.

The first mass killing of the Jews was carried out by the so-called People's Crusades, which attached itself to the army of knights and followed along behind it. Jewish settlements were utterly destroyed by these peasant hordes, who believed that all Jews had to die before the Second Coming. Official Church doctrine said that all Jews must be converted to Christianity before the Second Coming. But one easy way to settle this matter was to kill the Jews, so there would be no unconverted Jews left. And that's what just they did.

Violence done in the Crusades was seen as justified because the violence: 1) was done out of a righteous vendetta against enemies who had wrongfully dishonored, abused and stolen from the family of Christianity; 2) was done as an expression of love, which was the highest duty of a Christian; and 3) was committed under the command leadership of a just God.

Most Turks didn't take the Crusaders seriously because they didn't believe that so many soldiers could have marched that far without supply lines or command structure. It was a miracle that any Crusaders got there, let alone 1 in 20 (of course, they pillaged everything along the way). In a sense, their "miraculous journey" enhanced their religious conception of God's leadership, guidance, and protection. When the armies of the Fourth Crusade finally arrived at Jerusalem, they immediately performed a religious procession around the whole city as a penitential rite to confirm the pilgrimage; then they assaulted the city, knowing God was on their side. After that first attack failed, they constructed many, many seige machines; a month later, they broke through the city walls.

No one really knows how many people were slaughtered when Jerusalem fell. Western sources describe some tens of thousands: the blood from the slaughtered reached up to the knees of their horses; Muslim sources disagree, saying only three thousand were killed. Over the course of the Crusades, the mobs also killed many Christians (even entire cities) because they simply couldn't distinguish a Christian from a Muslim from a Jew by dress or behavior. No matter how many were killed, the miracle of the conquest of the city in 1099, returning it to Christian possession, reaffirmed that the earthly Jerusalem was the heavenly apocalyptic city.

In the fanaticism of the Crusades, we see the beginning of the Inquisition, under which anyone considered a heretic was tortured and killed by the Roman Catholic Church. From warfare against the distant non-believer, it was not a far step to war against the heretics at home. The Inquisition with all its horror could never have taken such deep root without the Crusades' awakening of religious passions.

John: Yeah, that works just fine.

Dustin--So you're going to buy Jeremy a pack of cards and give him change, and apologize to Larry for almost stranding him at Country Kitchen, right? Or else.

Leon--Hey I'll stop by Monday night, say around 5:30 - 6:00. Does that work for you?

Yeah, I got there late, I figured I must have missed you. Sorry.

Looking at my schedule, I'll be kinda busy this weekend but I will be at the shop around 5 on Sunday. Monday I'll probably be there all afternoon/evening.

Let me know which works for you.

Leon--I dropped by the comic store on Thursday. I had to leave a little after 6, so I must of just missed you. If you want to post a time that I can meet you I'll make sure and bring the Deadlands Books. Let me know.

Jeremy & Dustin--I sent the email to Strongbad yesterday. Heh heh heh heh......

Neat! Henshin Hall of Fame (Japanese Rubber Monsters from the 1970s) and a G4 Cubequarium

Caroline--Discoball? I like it!

Dan--Hey you live! So how is it going? What have you been up to?

Anyone still have any of my books? If so I'll be in the area Thanksgiving weds to Sunday.

I always liked Astalavista.com, but Google has this nice caching feature... Now if only Google clustered search results into keyword folders.

Hey, blacklights, Pacman, lava lamp... might as well add a discoball for shiny!

I finally beat metroid prime!

I just read this on USA Todays entertainment section.

"...In a sign of the growing importance of DVD sales to Hollywood, 20th Century Fox is considering a plan to resume production of Family Guy, a sometimes crude animated comedy that the Fox network took off the air more than 18 months ago. As many as 35 new episodes could return in January 2005, marking the first time that a canceled series has been revived based on strong DVD demand and ratings in syndication..."


Oh hell yeah!

Dustin--Yahoo sucks big time. Long live Google.

Dustin--Yes, but I'll be out of my room (i.e. no access to spell list) from approximately now until 9 or 11. I'll get the list to you around then.

Dustin--Good morning assmonkey :-P

Okay that Trigun show was pretty strange. Kind of fun, but strange.

Jeremy--So do you want me to make a viso layout of the living room of your appartment. Then we can take measurements and get ready to move your mame system. Hell Yeah! Dude also how cool would a black light in the overhead be? I mean crank the blacklight up and play some pac man. Oh baby that would be something sweet!

Caroline-- do u yahoo?

Excel work for you? That'll give the nonPHB sourcebooks.

DCs are 19 for 0-level non-Evocation spells and 23 for 0-level Evocation spells. Can cast up to 6th level currently. For reference, the party's base saves at 11th lvl are ~3/7 + stat + magic items (~5-18).

Everyone else is divine, so unless they're using odd sourcebooks, they have the same spell lists (cleric, paladin, druid) and you should only need their save DCs.

I have two classes and a paper today, so I probably won't be able to get you the list until tonight. *goes back to working on paper*

All spell casters--I need for you to email me an updated spell list, and a list of your spell save dc's. Email is dmellott2001@(delete)yahoo.com

Jeremy: yeah, I still need a new drive. Thanks.

Leon - Got some CD-RW drives in finally. Digital Research 52x. It'll set you back $25 if you're still interested. Interest would require some sort of response.

Jeremy--Really? What didn't sell? I thought it would be that stupid bank, but you said someone actually bid on it. I'll have another load ready for you (it takes a while to sort out all my crap!).

Thanksgiving, no... I won't be there either.

Shatzer- Just about everything sold. If you're serious about moving your stuff, I can help you fill up the back of your pickup to drop a load off. Yes, I mean that...

Oh yeah that is Thanksgiving isn't it. Will anyone actually be there?

Leon--I'll almost certainly be missing your first game (Thanksgiving and all), but hey I have a real char concept now.

Dustin--*evil grin* You're going to regret saying that...

I could run my game, but it has occured to me that only three players have actually created characters yet. I'd like to get that done other than during the time when I should be killing them. So let's do yours this week and mine next week.

So now I need to know two things, who is playing Deadlands (on alternate Thursdays) and when can they meet me to create a character?

Dustin--Assmonkey? Okay so be it that is your name.

Jeremy-- Assmonkey would like a drive also.

Leon-- are we playing my game this Thursday or Deadlands, I have my game prepaired either way.

Jeremy--Shatzman needs a drive if you have extra!

Leon - Got some CD-RW drives in finally. Digital Research 52x. It'll set you back $25 if you're still interested.

Caroline - Nothing extrodinary on your memory, as of yet. Best I've been able to find on 512s is the uber-generic OEM's from Pricewatch at around $40 a stick.

As does this one, especially with extra footage on the big screen.

"If we'd had more money, we would have used real horses instead of coconuts, and that would have destroyed it. We were saved from our own mediocrity by lack of money...how wonderful these reissues are...it's great that [the Python phenomenon] stays alive...but we're all still moving forward. We're not dead yet." --Terry Gilliam

I need a room like this one. Yeah. Maybe I can afford it next century.

Dustin--Can we hit the Cow Level around 20th level?

This Movie phuckin rocks.

actually, I found the magazine but I'd still like a digital copy as backup

leons1701(cut this part out)@hotmail.com

Leon--If you want that Pelor file, either tell Dustin to email me your email address, or post your email on the blog.

Dustin--How long did before they get power? A couple of places here in town are supposed to be down for another couple of days. Did you have fun last night?

Damn it got cold!

It is Tornado related, I need to help my Sister and brother in law clean out their freezer and fridge, and take it to my parents house. ummmmmm freeeee steak!

Dustin--Is it tornado related?

All--I'm probably going to be a little late tonight to the game. I shouldn't be too long though.

Caroline--There is damage all around campus, but the campus itself is okay. There is or was a park to the north of me, it is pretty much toast. Everything else seems fine to me.

Shatz- No, the kid was a nitwit. I just wasn't in the mood to ask how a monkey like him gets a job in the software department, and I don't even get a callback...

I heard that a tornado hit downtown Wooster. Power out in parts of town and trees blown over... Is everyone ok??

Is game happening on Thanksgiving? If it is, I'm probably missing it.

I think he got them from Dirty Dicks

Dustin--So since you told him to kill it does that mean you gave him crabs? :)

John-- don't scare him, He probly had nightmares about getting crabs. *Oh no Its gonna get me*

Dustin--Well Jeremy may disagree, but the kid was a nitwit. Wanna play some more Soul Calibre? poke poke poke....

Jeremy--Boo look at me I'm a scary hermit crab! :-P *snicker* That is what you get for listening to Dustin.

All-- I've got great news, Unreal tournament 2004 releases this coming winter for computer, and it looks freakin awsome.

John-- Cudoes on the way u put down neverwinter knights with that kid at bestbuy.

All-- my email provider is currently switching servers. If anyone needs to get ahold of me, my current email address is dmellott2001atyahoodotcom

Vampires. Spaceships. Tanks. A good time was had by all!

Dustin: Sorry, i can't make it today. Maybe we can talk before the game thursday.

Dustin--Hey dude I tried to email you but the old email address doesn't work. How about you email me your new address :)

Dustin--Speaking of funny, next level gives my char a feat, which will be Energy Admixture (Fire). Admixtured Shocking Arrow is an effective 6th lvl spell. Normal arrow damage and 2d8+20 elemental damage (half fire, half acid or electric). Before you grumble much at me, she can only produce 1 or 2 of those a day, unless the party's completely out-of-combat. Somehow I think the party would rather have Mass Haste during combat than a single superarrow.

Uall gotta see this it is funny. That will be ten minut.

Leon-- Can I meat u at Ericks around 5:00 today, We need to talk.

John-- To answer your Question, School isn't going so good. I managed to get a c - in math, which means that i loose my funding. yeah.

Good morning

Now, I never said whether the movies were increasing or decreasing their quality (or lack thereof) to meet MST3K levels.

Leon--Sorry, I can't reliably play on those days. Could play Mondays for this semester and break, and possibly Fridays for break and next semester, but neither one works well. Tuesday is completely out. Ah well, let me know how the game goes. *vicarious spectator*

LOL you guys really need to post a list of what you watch to the blog or something.'

From what I've heard, most of these movies would need to RISE to MST quality.


As far as Deadlands goes, which night interests people?

Best nights for me are Monday or Friday, Tuesday would be possible but not the best.

If we play weekdays, Ryan may join. More players, good.

And As ,oops, Dustin may even grace us with his presence.

John--Your taste in movies is, as always, impeccable. Or did I mean unparalleled? Hmm... Hit MST3k quality yet? "Blue Devils" are getting near that point.

Jeremy--Eh, I was just kidding. Um, maybe you should sleep some before posting. :-P

Caroline--I think we are food orderable. You havent' heard about the movie I made Jeremy watch last week, heh heh heh. Lets just say zombies, lesbian vampires with Star Wars Blasters, and El Diablo de Azul (Mexican masked wrestler). I never ever should of been allowed to shop on the net :-)

Yeah... I would definitely look into FF if I had
1. A decently new computer
2. More free time (or just less homework and less procrastination).

Does it compare well with Evercrack (aside from the massive boost in sys reqts)?

pretty colors?

Food orderable, or should eat beforehand?

Actually, I decided it would be a good thing to take a few days off FF. It's an addictive, soul-sucking whore of a game. Five stars. =) That, and if I didn't actually get more than a few hours sleep, I'd have slept through Tuesday...

Caroline, yeah, movies. Doors open at six. No clue what we are watching just yet, but of course you can come...

"In addition I think that he may be falling for a little white mage, screen name naughty kitty ;-)"

Hey! You be nice! (And you've got it all wrong. She's a thief, who IS a naughty kitty. Mithra. They're a race of cat-people, an' all...)

Er...

I said nothing. I'm still online right? Woohoo! Level 14!

Yes, but can he still read then? Since I may or may not see you tomorrow, what's on the movie list?

And of course the real question is whether Dustin shows up. Right, Dustin?

Caroline--You should email him. He may check his email when his eyes get too blurry to play FF online.

*snickers* Pixel Friends go well with the weekly Thursday make-believe. So how is he watching movies? or are you watching movies somewhere else?

Anyhow, let me know if/when to come see movies. Or else I'll sit around and do homework of all things. *sniffle*

Sorry Jeremy has fallen into that black hole known as Final Fantasy online. He has new little pixel friends that keep him company. In addition I think that he may be falling for a little white mage, screen name naughty kitty ;-)

Don't you all miss me? Bwahahahahahahahahahahaha...

Hmm... Tuesday. Tuesday is Veteran's Day, so classes are cancelled. Can I tag along to watch movies?

Jeremy?

Dustin--You didn't answer my question. How is your new job going? How about school? You know I never get to see you anymore (yipee *er* I mean bummer).

Assmonkey--You can earn your name back by showing up Tuesday on time! Pssssssssssst :-P

Blame John. I only called you that once. *innocent look*

good point. No more assmonkey!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dustin--As DM, you can do whatever you want. As players, we can ignore your game. :)

Dustin--Actually I was wondering how your new job was going.

Caroline--How is school going?

Dan--You still out there?

Assmonkey--You shouldn't be so mean. I was never that mean.................. bwahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha....... Okay even I couldn't keep a straight face :)

Caroline--And I could kill all the characters.
do u im

John--Neat.

Jeremy--Got those CDs for you; will bring them on Thurs.

Dustin--We could come up with other names for you, y'know.

Caroline--I'll stop by this Thursday with the stuff.

Leon--I see that you are having issues with your Deadlands game. Do you still want the stuff? If so does Thursday work for you?

Assmonkey--So you don't wan't anyone calling you Assmonkey? I suppose, Assmonkey, that means that I'll have to "pick" up the slack. This, friend Assmonkey, is a challange that I'm willing to take. Until later, Assmonkey, have a good day. :-P

The Kender Encyclopedia. No need to say more :D

Are we playing it tonight, I need to know if I need to show up early

I've been thinking about moving it anyhow, this makes it official. Any suggestions people?

Wednesday is out, any other day should work.

Oh BTW, Ryan said he might join if it was a weekday, adding another player, a good thing.

Leon--It seems like people don't want to (or can't) play on Saturdays. If people will come play on a different day, run your game on that day instead. *makes face at her limited schedule* Although the system did look neat... Ah well.

Leon, I'm going to have to indefinately pull out of your game. Saturday Evening just isn't working. Which is upsetting, since it looked like an awesome system...

The next person who calls me assmonkey, besides John, Will be deducted 20,000 xp, anyone els have somthing to add?

Assmonkey--Any news on that semester schedule of yours? For planning tonight, we do have another paladin after all. Oh, and making the hallways 10 ft wide (instead of 5 ft wide) would get all the chars involved/placed in greater danger.

Jeremy--I guess you just won't be getting a pick of the magic items, only a share of the money. *snickers* Or John could drop by your place earlier or come to Eric's.

John--I have the money when you have the books. I'll definitely be in town today and next Th. Saturdays depends on how many players Leon can get.

Heh heh heh Dustin has a new Blogger handle........ :-P

Assmonkey - I got a cold/flu. Spent most of the night in the bathroom. I won't be making it to the game tonight. Hope you all have fun.......

Assmonkey--Doesn't it suck when life interrupts you plans?

Jeremy-- This is Assmonkey, I wrote the next part of the storyline expecting you to be ontime. If you don't show up, It might cause a small problem with the rest of the group.

Fine.

Assmonkey- I'll be showing up to your game a few hours late tomorrow. Probably 8PMish- Depends on whenever John shows up to drop off his stuff.

Redundancy is not Your forte, everyone already knows that I am an assmonkey.

Repeat out-loud for the class:

"Yeah, I can babysit. I just need to make a quick phone call to let some people know I won't be showing up tonight, so they don't think I'm an assmonkey."

Yes John, I know what a phone is, once I got volunteered, I would of have to of let the kids stay by themselves to call.

Dustin--Know what a phone is? We waited for you, assmonkey!

Caroline--Biozombie is one of the new breed of Asian Zombie movies, very kewl stuff. And I should know, I'm a zombie lord....... boogie boogie boogie...

Wow Larry does post, that is amazing.
Jeremy--Sorry bout last night, Got volunteered to babysit.

dusty has my old character sheet in his truck somewhere

For more efficient (or at least systematic) looting...
Brian--Please post what your char had.
Larry--Please post what your char had (if you're on the blog *forgetful*).
Jeremy--Please post what Dave's char had. Any news about that RAM?
What's Bio-zombies about anyhow?

Now that it is wednesday, I would like the gloves of dex for my character. I am not sure about any thing else at the moment. CYA guys thursday.

Jeremy--Best movie ever!

Shatz- Yeah, I'm still interested in the BESM books. (Along with any of the e-bay stuff, if that's still happening.) If we're doing the movie thing tonight, I'd like to keep it a bit short. One movie. Maybe grab something to eat, then show Dustin Bio-Zombies? (Or not. But bring Bio-zombies anyway. I need to make a new copy of it.) I'll have your money if you want to bring 'em to the movie t'night.

Dustin- Bring my Escaflowne back, damnit.

Nah, we had lots of killing, just PCs killing NPCs instead of vice versa.

No. the seocnd time around he kept the death down to a min.

Looks like another bloodbath, did Dustin kill you all again?

Caroline--Have you decided when it would work best for you to get the White Wolf books? Again let me know, I'll work around you.

A shortage or excess of anything has negative effects. Somehow football manages to cause riots no matter who wins. And that's not even counting the injuries caused during the game, or the ridiculous salaries given to the top players...

Porn doesn't have a large audience (discounting pornographic spam) at any one time or cause riots. If it causes problems with marriages, then the marriage had other problems anyways. Children should not be viewing or involved in porn, but the borderline between childhood, adolescence, and adulthood is rather fuzzy.

Well, porn does have negative effects, but then, so does watching football, and nobody (well, nobody important anyhow) is in any rush to ban football. Hmm, porn and football. hey OSU is losing, maybe I should start up KaZaa.

Not that I support child porn, but the govmt has shown yet again that it has no concept of people's "leisure activities" and the true reason for tech innovation.
Protection from Pornography Week (Oct 26-Nov 1)
First they came for the bukkake websites, and I did not speak out because I was not a bukkake website. George W. Bush says:

Pornography can have debilitating effects on communities, marriages, families, and children. During Protection From Pornography Week, we commit to take steps to confront the dangers of pornography.
