I, too, received the goodie! Thank you, anonymous! It put a sparkle in my smile!

Must look up this LED d20, so I can be the cool kid when I return to the gaming table. Yes, ladies and gents, and I use the term loosely, since my head problems notched down on Nov 5 I am going to try the crowded Tues night table once more. 8-10 players is still a tad too much, but I can handle the noise better, and I miss playing! And the new year brings with it new vacation time. I may take the 1st Wednesday off just in case I get too tired GAMING! Did I mention gaming? Again?!

Here's to a year of natural 20s! For the players, not the DMs. OK, once in a while for them. *shudder*

There's a man here. He dresses a little weird and is obsessed with giving me drinks, but he keeps my spirits up. I think he understands my problems. I don't know where this axe came from, but it feels good in my hands. I think I'm going out for a walk in the cold and snow.

Sounds like you started your second (or evening) job a bit earlier today.

Thanks! Found your earlier link a little late, but this looks fun. I wonder if the local FLGS has them or if it's just a web item?

I opted for the pdf of the Bestiary 2. One can never have too many monsters. The gift credit cut the price in half, thanks to our anonymous friend. :) Thanks again!

I'll be willing to test that theory with anyone who's willing to purchase my impending replacement. =)

At least you can bring in your bike. I hear there are vicious front-end loaders roaming the icy streets and mauling cars.

They're sending in someone who will actually try to embody the "Urizen" without all the paradoxes.

Edit: He's like a M:tA character gone overboard with paradox. ;)

Edit2: I wonder if his "Ahania" will ever post on Paizo.


I'm apparently not "Ahania" enough for him. F@#&*r!

Incidentally, did I ever tell you the story of the female TSA agent going through my carry on bag after Woody dropped me off at the airport as I was headed back to Columbus from Myrtle Beach? It involved items ... from Solnes' store. XD

I admit it, Puffy. I'm damn impressed. Very few are aware where the alias comes from. A fraction of them are even familiar with who(m) Ahania is. *golf clap*

In laws are good for that. I get to start driving home on Friday, so I get to dodge drunks and weather. At least I get to see friends in Albuquerque on the way home, and play Kingmaker on Sunday afternoon.

Celestial Armor. I was never impressed with shadow, and by the time you can afford SR it's never high enough.

In laws are good for that. I get to start driving home on Friday, so I get to dodge drunks and weather. At least I get to see friends in Albuquerque on the way home, and play Kingmaker on Sunday afternoon.

example of my life the past week:
One of my son's chores is to take the dirty dishes off the dinner table and put them on the counter near the sink. My mother-in-law was doing something on the counter near where he usually stacks the plates. He puts them down next to her and she screams at him -- "THINK, Jonathan!" Now he's a little scared and confused because he has absolutely no idea what he did wrong. She berates him and makes him feel stupid and it takes my wife to calmly tell him that she thinks that the dirty dishes should be put somewhere that is not near her. My wonderful mother-in-law says "Well I thought he was smarter than that." My wife asks her (as nice as she can at this point) not to be mean to him and that it has nothing to do with intelligence, it's just what he's used to doing and he can't read her mind. She then says that he wasn't hurt by what she said. To which my wonderful 9-year-old son says, "um, actually I was hurt."

And then she walks out. No apology. Nothing.

How can people go through life that long and still not have a clue?

As a building engineer, I feel obliged to point out that space heaters are the biggest single culprit when people start complaining about tripped breakers. They're also a huge fire hazard.

Remember, only YOU can prevent cube farm fires...

I like natural 20's. Muahahaha...

I even like when players roll them. It gives them a quaint sense of acomplishment. Which I can then crush mercilessly.

My new doc has gotten it down to 2 things.

There is something mis-firing in my brain (making it INEDIBLE Zombie! Watching you.....) and it reacts violently to me being overstressed and tired. Which my work/life makes me. I have to put myself in a NyQuil coma to sleep otherwise I'm up all night. Sucks.

EDIT: Horrible, sad news for ToTP!!!!!!!!!!!! Wait......
