I must say that people are insane.

I just have less and less faith in the human race.

I don't know... It doesn't look like it was the edible dyes themselves in the honey, but the waste byproducts from dye production. I wouldn't eat it.

Merry Christmas. I still have msot of you on my Christmas Card list, but because of how hectic it has been around here, much as last year they will be out late. So if you get a card from me late, well I am sure many know why. Sorry, doing the best I can right now.

Once again I hope you all have a wonderfull holiday season.

It maybe months before I can hope to be on regular again or putting in more than one poorly typed post.

Well the primary trainer who was not even in the room with us most of the day had a major fit and exploded on everyone today. Seems we are a few hours behind and she is having a fit trying to teach some of us. One of the guys in the class had a fit earlier in the day over the wording of one of the quiz questions. Yes they sucked, btu dude act your age. Yes ma'am you're in charge but don't call someone out in the middle of the class. Especially since your allegations were false and your being more than a little mental.

Well at least it is more money than the last job. :/

What the frak is going on there?

One person left in tears. IDK man I just think personality clashes. The trainer kept talking about how nice she normally is, but man I did not see that ever, not even the first day.

Okay, it's time to call a supervisor. I normally don't encourage ratting people out, but that's not acceptable.

One of the leads was in the room with her when she went batty. I am going to got to my boss and explain things.

I’m sorry that you feel that way, Realmwalker. Maybe it’s the Asperger’s talking, but I don’t think it is. I feel that I’ve been both critically honest and reasonably diplomatic.

Oh hell no...

You can not play the Asperger's card to post as you have on the boards and expect to get away with it. My son is 16 and has more respect and temperament than you have shown on any single post or review I have yet to see. He has full blown Aspergers and knows enough of life and values to edit himself before posting. I feel that you are just using that as an excuse and a crutch. I take it as a personal affront to see people attempting to use that syndrome as an excuse when I see my teen age son take the time to make the effort every day not to be like that.

If you feel that a product is not worth looking at fine say so, but use some tact. When you reply to people on threads please try to edit yourself before hitting submit. You will find most people will be much more polite in return.

Sweet! What kind of job?

Tech support for a tax software company. So 1) I will be mainly talking to professionals 2) no sales 3) business hours for the most part 4) my own space, not just a cubicle but a large comfy, quite, professional area to do my work in.

Plus it pays better than what I am making now, and to top it off they decided that I had enough experience combined with a good interview to be worth their hiring cap for pay. So I was offered more than what I was initially told the pay would be.

I actually had an employee ask for time off tomorrow so that they could go on an interview.

While I'd like to attribute this to uber-honesty I have to remind myself that this same person called off sick a couple of weeks ago and then posted on FB that they were having a great time at the waterpark. (Ratted out by a coworker with printout of said post)

*facepalm*

Has anyone coined the phrase, Cyber-Stupid?

Couillon - This is pronounced Coo-Yawn with the accent on the 2nd syllable Yawn. The "n" is almost silent. Don't put any drawl on the second syllable. It should be a quick sharp 2nd syllable and nasally sounding. This Cajun word means stupid, idiot or fool. "A village idiot who has lost his village."

C'est sa Couillon - Cajun phrase calling someone a fool "It is a fool". A common act is to thump your niece or nephew with your finger while saying "C'est sa couillion".

To get an idea of the volume of data, that's the same as having 14,000 50 Gigabyte Blu-Ray movie discs worth of data in an area smaller than your pinky tip.

That boggles the mind! I still can barely wrap my head around the idea of having 1TB in my harddrive, let alone 700 times that in the tippiest tip of my teeniest finger!

Every clever thing we do with technology is mocked by it's natural counterpart. Nature laughs at our data storage, as well as at our puny weapons compared to the forces she can throw at us.

Um yeah about that

I don't get it. Nothing was controversial in that vid. Yet some posters are acting like Chuck has gone bat s&+* insane.

So they quoted Reagan,
"President Reagan went on to say that 'You and I have a rendezvous with destiny. We will preserve for our children this last best hope of man on earth, or we will sentence them to take the first step into a thousand years of darkness. If we fail, at least let our children and our children's children say of us we justified our brief moment here. We did all that could be done.'"
so what?

What a loss. I admit the first book is fairly childish but then again so is the Hobbit. As the characters grow (and the audience) so does the story mature. While it never reaches Lord of the Rings story levels it is not a bad series. Some of the movies were fairly good as well. Much better in fact than a lot of Hollywood films.

Keep in mind these are average encounters. There is nothing wrong with having a EL 1 encounter that becomes nothing but either a speed bump or one in which it is too tough for the party and they have to retreat.

Good game design does not always mean "appropriate levels" for encounters. This can also alleviate the dreaded 15 min adventuring day. Since the PC's will never know the encounter levels.

Keep in mind as well, just because a module is designed a particular way, it does not mean you can't expand upon or modify it for your home games.

Did you know?

A wind speed of 231 MPH was recorded in 1934 atop Mt. Washington, the tallest mountain in New Hampshire (or New England for that matter). Once the world record, this speed still holds as the second-highest wind speed ever recorded on the planet Earth (somewhere in Australia beat the record in 1996)

Wind speed

Fastest ever recorded: 484±32 km/h (301±20 mph) 3-second gust; Observed by a DOW (Doppler On Wheels) radar unit in a tornado near Oklahoma City, Oklahoma on 3 May 1999.

Fastest recorded with an anemometer: 113.2 m/s or 407 km/h (253 mph) 3-second gust; one of five extreme gusts during a series of 5-min time periods; Barrow Island (Western Australia), 10 April 1996, during Cyclone Olivia.

Fastest recorded with an anemometer outside of a tropical cyclone: 372 km/h (231 mph) sustained 1-minute average; Mount Washington, New Hampshire, 12 April 1934.

Fastest daily average: 174 km/h (108 mph); Port Martin (Adélie Land), Antarctica, 24-hour period from 21 March 1951 to 22 March 1951.
