Stardust is a good one.

Why are peppers good at archery?

Because they habanero.

I heard a joke about pizza the other day. I won’t share it here because it’s too cheesy.

This character is finally (mostly) finished. I'm technically all good to go, but we've only played one session so far with minimal mechanical engagement, so I still have a small window to tweak spells known and my teamwork feats. Could someone point me to a good format template for posting a build? I've never posted a full build to the threads before, so I'm not sure how to go about it.

Something like this?

Post at the top of page means you’re nekked. Don’t ask me why, ‘cause I don’t know.


I had insomnia last night. As a result of this, at work I was envisioning a combination of Pink Floyd’s The Wall and Twilight. A musical of course.
The One From The Registration Office was dating a sparkly vampire.
Spoiler: There were striding hammers.

Hopefully I can get some sleep tonight.


Arnold Schwarzenegger travels back in time to drive a DeLorean and learn to surf. The purpose being to capture a gang of bank robbers who wear the masks of past presidents.

Fort Ticonderoga fell quite swiftly in the Revolutionary War, if they are that far along. That place seemed to fall easily to whoever happened to attack it.


I like hot spicy, but that stuff looks too extreme for me.

I’m thinking there will be steam.

It goes, katana, great katana, and great, great katana. Which makes you Katana the Third. (Katana III.)

Here’s hoping Cal gets better soon.

The Army that Never Was: D-Day and the Great Deception by Taylor Downing. A fun history of Operation Overlord to convince the Nazis that the invasion of France would happen in Calais instead of Normandy.

I don’t know of any books to suggest on the topic, but the various deceptions used by the Allies in WWII are fascinating. I understand that a fake Cairo was created for the Germans to bomb during the African campaign. And of course, the body with the fake documents that was dropped off near Spain, to suggest that the invasion of Sicily was going to be on Crete instead.

After the Great Covid Toilet Paper Disaster, I’ve always kept one ahead on toilet paper super packs.
I was lucky back then. I had only used a couple of rolls out of the pack. If I had been on the low end of the pack there would have been toilet paper shortfalls.


Someday I’ll make it to the edge of the world. I’ll stand there for awhile in quiet contemplation, spit off the edge, and then just go home.

Imagine: Two tiny fountains.

I was out fixing a main break last night. Till after midnight. You know you’re having fun when your wet fingers stick to the metal tools because of freezing.

It’s an island. Just happens to be somewhat connected to Europe at the top.

I got to spend the 6th grade sex ed class in the store room, thanks to my parents. Also got to endure my classmates’ smugness about their superior knowledge.

My parents gave me the choice when the class was repeated in 10th grade. Naturally, I chose not to be stuffed in the store room and endure the ridicule of my peers.

It is -9 degrees Celcius, or 15.8 Fahrenburgers, for Americans. We consider this very cold indeed - things are all over ice and frozen slush since the snow on Sunday, and we are pretty fed up of it now.

We of Arizona also consider that to be cold. Ongoing drought at the moment though.

Just in time. If you hit the ground, you die.

And yet, if the cleric is meditating for spells with channel uses leftover because you used a wand of CLW, you are wasting gold.

On a side note: The campaign with all those negative channeling cultists was tough. The attrition was brutal.


I use a toothpaste that contains fluoride. Because of this, I don’t want my water to also be treated with fluoride. There is an MCL and a secondary MCL for fluoride.

Otherwise, the Christmas Carol point is well made and humorous.

Oh, that’s the funny part. I have around 1,500 hours of sick time. I just didn’t want to go to the doctor for a cold. Doctors can get sick too. Would have been best for me to just stay home till I was feeling better.

Flu vaccine, COVID vaccine, and tetanus booster: Check.
Still-up-to-date smallpox, MMR, pneumonia, and polio vaccines: Check.

I figure I'm going to get either rabies, Lyme disease, mpox, or Ebola. Time will tell.

I was told that the smallpox vaccine works on mpox as well.

I had a nasty bout of the “common cold “ post Thanksgiving. My company policy calls for a doctor’s note after 2 sick days. So I was back at work on the third day, even though I wasn’t really ready. I’m pretty sure it prolonged my symptoms.

So, I was at the sushi joint for lunch today. Sitting at the table next to us was a kid. 1st grader I’m guessing. He was dressed in a swamp thing suit. As we were leaving, I said to my co-worker: “It might be dangerous for a swamp thing to show up at a sushi restaurant. You could end up on the menu.”

I’m working on a book. It’s my new early retirement plan. It’s also for my own entertainment. If I don’t finish I’ll at least know why.

Okay, remember six years ago when we first moved back to Texas, I discovered one of WW's dojo buddies had been a bodyguard for Lech Wałęsa during the Solidarność movement? And how I'd irritated the snot out of him by fangirling until he brushed me off and refused to talk about it?

Apparently he's over his snit, as WW tells me he's invited us to a NYE party at his house.

How do I get him to tell stories without irritating him again?

Get him drunk?

On a serious note. If he wants to talk about that stuff he will. If not, best to leave it be.

[bragging] I paid off my 30 year home mortgage in 12 years.[/bragging]

Mostly a matter of lucky timing. Interest rates were fairly low and housing prices had not yet ballooned when I bought. Also a small house on a tiny lot.


We can neither confirm nor deny that it may or may not be cold enough.

That was one of my few complaints with 4th D&D. It seemed like human was one of the worst, if not the worst choices.

In other news the leaves are falling. I remember a time, not so long ago, when the trees were bare by now. Strange, strange times.
