What's sad is that you can find an Aspect of Bahamut for $16.99. Just doesn't have the same appeal.

I know it's sad, but I'm just trying to help, if there's one thingI know it's the illicit market for miniatures.

I have no doubt that you do illicit things with your miniatures. ;-)
Unfortunately, with next week being a year on unemployment, I have to be particular about spending habits. I've been fortunate to maintain a Paizo subscription, but I've sacrificed a lot of other things to do so.
Another thing that has me grousing is that Manowar is playing only one appearance in North America and it's in Cleveland ... in March ... on a Saturday. A no-brainer for me because it's only two hours away, but when announced that tickets went on sale today ... for $81.50 ... I had to pass. If it were half the amount, I'd done it. But that's too much for my blood.
Besides, I'd get serious dirty looks from the missus. Especially when she finally got a job offer to come out of contract and become employed full-time. Since she had gone back to school to pick up a certification for web design to complement her B.A. in graphics design ... she's finally making the pay scale jump of $20k more than what she was making 2.5 years ago. She's going to be making $15k more than what I was making before I was let go.
Got to pick my battles. In the meantime, maybe I should stand at a freeway intersection showcasing my vocal range. Stranger things have happened here in Columbus. Heh.

Freakiest winter ever, January 7th and still no snow on the ground here in St' John's. Normally we are piled under the stuff by now, Hell usually by December 5th we're piled under the stuff.
shakes fist
We had more today. Luckily, this was just an inch or so and very powdery. Plus, the sun has now come out to start melting it away.
Sadly though, I think we're supposed to get more tomorrow. So, naturally, my wife wants to go out and about doing kidlet prep stuff.

Tell her we did a bunch of kidlet prep one Saturday, and my wife's water broke the next day(4 weeks early), just a warning.:)

Then go "out and about doing kidlet prep stuff". Your days of going "out and about" are seriously numbered.
Anything specific you guys are lacking?

I have a sales guy arguing with me. He got a client to agree to pay $1000 for a product they already have. He wants his commission, dammit!. Really? They really want me to do that? Ugh.
1)I don't understand the particulars of the situation, or what you've even decided,
and
2)I'm no angel, no better than you,
but
I do know this: those types, ifthey do have souls, they are indeed fragile things, as delicate as a snowflake.
I'd wonder if he's seeing just what you'll go for, because if you roll over, he'll be back with another seedy proposition, because NOW you're in collusion....
Greed's like that. It's never fully sated.
Don't feed the bears, man.
I'm shocked. My complaint worked its way high up enough with management that they forced the sales manager to back down. I don't have to rip anybody off! (And I don't have to worry about bad blood either - he's in another part of the country.) Score 1 for business ethics (although the score is probably still way behind the score for corporate greed, but I'll take the little victories.)

We expect 3-4 inches this Sunday and Monday. It has been 65 almost all week and should drop to about 15 tomorrow evening.

Toothache, only time it doesn't hurt is when I'm sleeping.... ironically it prevents me from sleeping. Gonna go shoot myself in the tooth now, with any luck I'll miss and hit what passes for my brain. :/
You too? We must have been hit with the same poison.

Take some ground cloves and add just enough water to make a paste, then put it on the area that hurts. Which you will no longer feel. Way better than that stupid orajel crap that doesn't even work at all. I hope you get some sleep soon.I had something that I put on it that helped.....

Unless Solnes brought it home from work? ;)

We have a winner!
Hmm. Numbing the area dulls the sensation of it being 'tasted' and 'tasting' it results in a numb tongue. So the cherry flavor is a trap. Admiral Ackbar would be proud.
