Sigh... FaWTL passed away and already it's son is 1/5 through it's life.

*sniff* Kids grow up so fast nowadays.

I'm not sure where she's currently living, but I don't think she's out of the country, since she and her brother Flint maintain the rights to the Buck Rogers license.

Aye, I had ordered it through Amazon (along with The Ghost King to get free shipping), but they are so messed up at Amazon anymore, I'm getting The Ghost King almost TWO WEEKS after it hit the stores and they bumped the Bestiary to mid-November.

I remember the days when pre-ordering at Amazon meant that you'd more than likely get the book the day it was released to the stores (if not a day or two before).

Oh well, means I've cancelled the Bestiary portion of my order and signed up for the subscription. Heck, I was going to buy the PDF anyway, so Amazon's free shipping was only saving me about $5-$6.

Now, I'm just waiting for the shipping and unlock. I'll probably STILL get it before The Ghost King gets here.

So I've decided that if I don't have a job by December I'm going to takethe LSAT and apply to law school. I'm going try for either University of Utah, BYU, or UNLV. That way my family can stay here and I can tarvel back and forth on the weekends.

Sounds like a plan! A lawyer huh? Are you sure you want to go down that road? There isn't a path back! ;)

Well the I could afford a faster internet connection. :)

(And, I've officially 'given up' trying to catch-up to conversations in this thread if I haven't checked it for longer than two hours :P)

I was glad the yoga teachers got eliminated at the mat. They annoyed me.

I'm kinda partial to the Globetrotter team. I actually met Big Easy when the Globetrotters were here in town.

How in the ever loving hell is my freaking electric bill 245.00 for one freaking month? This is getting a bit insane, I am going to move out of this area just to get away from this electric company. Serioulsy, I live in a single wide mobile home, my ac is set at 78, and we don't run alot of lights and such. I wonder how expensive it is just to have generators. GRRRRRRRRRR!!! Crap, and its due this Friday, I only have half of that! And no, they won't give me another week. I am so sick of this freaking company!

You need more moderators and Cut the number of pages down to 10 per thread, then start new thread plz! Most of the comments are 1 liners and the threads go all over the place I know these forums are young and under funded but 551 pages on one topic is insanity!

You know, four months back. :D

Nice upgrade!

I noticed they no longer show every page of our thread, but just the last ten or so...

Me hates football....me hattteeesss iiiitttttt!!!!

I have an incredible amount of fun with the 'ex-jocks' in my fantasy league by explaining how they are role-playing when they do their fantasy league stuff (they actually get into character and post 'news' and 'interviews' with their players and themselves as coaches).

Romo looked good. Austin looked good. Crayton looked good. McNabb broke a rib. Washington sucks. Giants are solid though. Cowboys look good for at least a wild card...

The Bucs? Have they picked a QB yet?

;)

Now the Eagles' Defense... Yeah the rest of NFC East better watch out.

Thanks, James! That's what I thought, but I wasn't quite sure if the extraordinary abilities meant racial or class...

Question on the Skeleton/Zombie (and probably other templates like them).

It says that the base creature loses all class HD and most special abilities (except for any extraordinary special qualities that improve its melee or ranged attacks).

Does this mean that if (for example) a 15th level fighter is made into a Skeleton/Zombie, they would retain the fighter's Weapon Training abilities? Or a ranger's favored enemy/favored terrain?

So what are everyone's plans for this weekend?

Today we are taking the kids to a friends house for pizza, wings, salad, and a lil splashing around in the little pool. Haven't seen her all summer, shoudl be fun. An then tomorrow I plan on cleaning up a bit, finishing my final, and storming Fort Ranick. Then on Monday...nothing bt hanging out and gaming....should be awesome!!

Let's see, I'm the ONLY web person working at my company and we're re-launching our entire site on MONDAY. Guess what I'm doing this weekend. (Oh, and before you ask, I'm on lunch ;) )

You all just wait. Next week my company's site will be launched and I'll no longer be working 10 hour days.

THEN we'll get to 500 pages!

Hey, Solnes, the pictures are really cute. You even got me to actually check Facebook :) You know, for about thirty seconds. I don't have room for another time vacuum just now. ;)

Just sent my friend request to ya Solnes...

Cool moments:

1) Getting the Campaign Setting signed by most of the Paizo crew, plus Ed Greenwood, Keith Baker and Wayne Reynolds.

2) Showing up at 8:00 am Sunday to run my Paizo Society event, only to have Josh point out that I wasn't running til noon. "Go back to bed," he said. Off to the Battletech Pods I went...

3) Seminars where I learned stuff!

4) Catalyst game demo for Eclipse Phase, sharing my Shadowrun love with my friends and them enjoying it too, and learning about Cthulhutech from Matthew Grau himself.

5) Crystal Caste D'oh dice. And the lusting after the bone dice, the megalodon dice, the bermuda coral dic, the ... you get the picture.

I sure hope he likes interceptions!

Oh, and Erik, if you are going to the game, let me know. I'd be more than willing to see it with you all (even if I'm wearing my Eagles jersey...)

I've removed a post. There is no need to be crude.

It was the quoted monologue from Jay (of Jay & Silent Bob) in Dogma. Granted, the language is a bit adult, but that's Kevin Smith for ya (who, by the way is a HUGE fan of Mr. Hughes as well).

Again. But Marvel did it first. Or DC did. Or George Romero did.

haha damn I thought my idea was original. It is funny becausr two nights ago I was actually thinking about superman and thinking that negative eenergy would be the quickest and most efficient way of killing him barring of course cryptonite.

One problem, since Superman's retcon in the 90's, the official ruling is that Superman is basically a HUGE solar battery that sucks up solar energy, giving him is powers. The vamp was dusted as soon as Superman was bitten.

I know why I'm not posting as much... Preparation for GenCon (And Buckaroo Banzai was on IFC last night :) )

Running two slots (Scenario #23) for Paizo.
