I have a simple solution to leaving clothing on kitchen table - I don't have free space on kitchen table (electric oven and electric stand on it, though I might move oven back to its resting place nearby, not today because I am going to use it in a moment, when I take a break for making a dinner).

I've got an even simpler solution: I don't have a kitchen table.

Long time no talk. Good to see something from you!

We had so much fun with the PMG in FaWTL and in chat. I had no idea that he wasn't well, and am very saddened at his loss. My thoughts go out to his family. Does anyone still have a file of the artwork that Hugo made for him?

Do you mean THIS? I remember when this was made and I am glad Lureene was included in it!

Great memories.

Yes indeed, I do!

It sounds trite to say, but I am saddened by his loss, and am blessed that I had the privilege of interacting with him. He has done so much for this community just by being a consistent presence, and I pray that his care and kind spirit continue forward.

I pray for his family and loved ones. Thank you, Gary, and I pray we get to meet again, some day - this time in person. God bless you.

e: Clarification.

It doesn't sound in the least trite to me, and I agree.

I probably wouldn't have so many aliases if it wasn't for him.

An absolute legend!

I can't believe that, for all the aliases I made, I never made one honoring him.

Greenman is a sad smurf.

Great stories! Thank you for sharing these, and Happy Lunar New Year!

This is GREAT news! I have hopes that I can plug some holes in my collection. Especially, I'm hoping for J1: Entombed with the Pharaohs.

"He lives so far out in the (west Texas) country, even the Episcopalians there handle snakes."

That is HILARIOUS. (Not true, but still hilarious. Piskie here.)

Only 63K+ posts since I was last here? How disappointing. Y'all have had over four years.

I like to see what grows in the garden years later and so am happy with this thread!

Also, thank you Dragon's Lair Comics and Fantasy!

Thanks again for your support of Free RPG Day, Paizo! I was able to go for the first time in years (with two little ones in tow) and Paizo and Goodman Games definitely led the pack this year!

IT LIVES!

Yes, this blog is still around. Arguably, it's more around than it has been for some time. However, there is a new look and a new location. Mike is still making monsters and I am still rambling about things. Most recently, Osiris' privates.

Hey, guys! I think the moss that grew on the walls of the forum since forever grew sentient!

Nah, you just went senile and forgot who I am in the meantime.

Um...who the Hell are all you people?

I am testing something ridiculously stupid.

We're rooting for you, Gary! Even those of us you haven't heard from in a long time!

WHAT?!

Liz is a truly special person and she will be missed here. (Even by those of us who aren't "there.")

Paris Crenshaw, you say? Elemental, you say?

Plant monster: GOOD.

Lentil soup: good.

Death of Eco: :-(

Monkey Business: Have a glass of Zaya.

Restarting mothballed KM campaign: good.

Jawohl, mein guter Freund.

Who moved me way over here?

Bumping for badgerly awesomeness!

I tried sharing this post on Halloween, but something apparently happened to it. The Badger celebrated his third anniversary statting monsters for Mythopoeic Rambling by offering these:

Frightful monsters for your PF game.

Thanks, Mike! I hope everyone enjoys them, and if you do, we'd both appreciate it if you spread the link around and help boost the signal.

But you might not have spooky monsters that the players don't know from PF products to throw in and mess with them. Oh, I know!

Hey hey! Ho ho! Dungeonpunk politicians have got to go!

A few chapters in and so far I'm loving it! Everything I've come to love about Radovan and Jeggare, but in Varisia. VARISIA!

Bah! Young people!

I think the Korvosa book was my favorite work by Mike.

I fear nothing, Aberzombie.

Except clowns, but let's not talk about that.

I was informed that FAWTL is up to #5. I'm impressed. I'll be back in 6 or 7. Keep up the great work everyone!!

Carry on. Carry on.

^_^

His last words to us. Back in 2011.

I heard that Erik Mona, through his superior negotiating skills, has gotten TOR to also bring back Planet Stories! Erik and Pierce will retain control over the series while TOR will bring greater distribution and deeper pockets for negotiating with authors, publishers retaining rights, and literary estates.

Maybe creating and spreading a rumor will make it happen.

All I want is a nice little place in the country to raise a family.

A Pisky Pale Ian.

The kind where whenever there's four or more gathered there's a fifth.

SHILLELAGH!!!

Between that and your avatar I imagine you to be an ancient fey deity/anthropomorphization of some kind of land feature, such as a mountain, a hill range or a long cut down forest.

Hey, that's pretty much how I imagine myself, too!

Don't punish Freehold's spiritual development into a Humanist.

Joss Whedon is also a Humanist.

Snort! He doesn't have to be a Presbyterian humanist!

"Presby, Presby dinna bend!
Sit ye down on man's chief end!"

It's funny you guys are talking about the Realms when I'm thinking about what I will use if the new group ends up playing Tyranny of Dragons like I guess we will. What pre-Troubles resources do you recommend? I'm not sure anything I own is pre-Troubles, except the grey books from the boxed set (which I do not own as a whole).

Not all women use the same playbook.

WA-AAAH?

This is awesome! Almost as awesome as blue skies interspersed with lots of rain! :D

I... I like the rain. A lot.

Come to Ireland! We have lots. xD

But... but... I'm Scottish*...

* By ancestry (as well as Native American). I'm also Scotch-Irish by ancestry, but I don't know if that counts!

We're also known as the kind of Irish that really piss people off.

ARRRRRRRR braaaaaaaaaaains....

I be two memes in one, matey.

I feel like this is the only nautical avvy I've got.

On a completely unrelated note, a small but very insistent part of me wishes that tricorn hats were still in fashion.

Arrrrrggggghhhhh!

How do I not have an avatar that wears a tricorn hat? I'm simply MAD about tricorn hats!

Forty aliases...child's play. On an unrelated note, I'm apparently going insane from trivial memory loss. Is that a thing?

Howdy, Tacticslion.

Dave, hope you're surviving Lent without me.

Freehold! Long time!

I'm glad to see old threads going strong.

Hey, how about this Tor thing?

1,775 new.

Did I miss anything?

Now THIS, as I recall, was the whole reason for Mark to get a job at Paizo in the first place. Thanks for the art Mark, and best wishes for a fantastic new year.

Okay, Wolfgang. I've raised my pledge a second time. But this is absolutely the last time!

Oh, man. This blog post really takes me back.

and I raise it one Euryale's Deck of Metamorphic Magic!

Dust off the ol' Rod of Seven Parts, folks, and rule mythopoesis.
