Got back from picking up some foodstuffs to replenish store before kiddo arrives. Had to go to Sams...wanted to go to Costco. Oh, well.
Things are back to normal. Power was restored yesterday pm. I am not catching up on the nearly 400 posts posts since my last.
Wish I could post this in the appropriate thread but 'hell no' -
Weird dichotomy. People that don't 'believe' in God, 'believe' Him to be all kinds of bad things and 'responsible' for all kinds of bad things if He (or She) exists, including present day trials, big and small. Also, anyone that believes is somehow responsible for the sins of the Father or any previous believers. People that believe in God, believe in the type of God that they are comfortable with. Good and bad for some. No doubting that a lot of bad has been done in God's name. But if you don't believe, isn't it just that Man is bad? If He doesn't exist, how can He be?
So is it really the existence of God that causes the arguments? Or the manner/articles of belief? Or the degree of the blinders people wear?
E7: We do have such a thread in the PIEshop.

What do you think of that so far?I had a fun night of gaming last night. So no complaints here, I also have to prepare to run the D&D Encounters program tonight at my FLGS.Hand cramps FaWTL! How goes it all?
D&D Encounters is like D&D light. Basically little to no chance for roleplaying 1 encounter of combat per night. I prefer my tuesday night gaming sessions by far.

A lot of our sessions don't even have combat, and we do a lot of RP online when we can (if people respond). What do you guys run on tuesday? It's 4e, right?

Currently yes, I am running it by player request. There was a good amount of player RP going on. I had to introduce 2 new players and the NPC Cleric said that he was taking off (mainly because he would have made things too easy). So the new players got introduced and the old players had to retreat from the battlefield because of daunting battles. I keep encouraging good RP, but we still had 2 huge encounters this session.
I have to add: the split infinitive is NOT grammatically incorrect. It is a stylistic preference, based on the fact that "splitting" an infinitive is impossible in Latin. But we're not writing Latin here, folks.

"We're splittin' infinitives as fast as we kin, Cap'n, ba tha overload will destroy the main Strunkian-Veiss style buffer b'fore too long!" {has another shot of Jameson}
Wish I had used a spoiler tag on that before I went to lunch.
But hell yeah. Thx for the sanity check.
Just melancholy today. Layoffs at work. :(

Agreed. I used to be a staunch proponent of latinate English, but have reconsidered. I am also slowly coming to the conclusion that the stricture against ending a sentence with a preposition is obsolete, given its common usage and the fact that it is readily understood by native speakers.
(As long as the preposition is not superfluous:
"I can't remember where this letter came from." Ok.
"I can't figure out where my book is at." Nails on a chalkboard.)
Rudy, the red-assed poster,
Had a serious axe to grind,
And if you let him say it,
You're likely to lose your mind.
See, what you guys started with your 12 days of Christmas? Aggh! My brain! It won't stop!

There is only so much of that I can handle on a given day. Less if they are from Jersey.
Dashing thru the threads,
With a meathook in my hands,
Love the shades of reds,
And the music of the bands.
Oh, the songs they play,
Make me want to dance,
And people I will slay,
They don't stand a chance?
With words they aim to hurt,
And my hook it is so sharp,
The blood it will a squirt,
They ought to be playing LARP.
tra la la.
Elvis has left the building!
[Daffy Duck] Woo hoo hoo hoo hoo![/Daffy Duck]
You know Moorluck and Solnes,
And Lynora, that vixen,
CJ and Taig,
The threads they are fixin'
Angels and drow,
Poodles and Jacks,
They all sure know how,
To take things to the max.
But do you recall...
The most famous poster of all?
la la la la la

AHAHAHA!

All of the other posters,
Used to laugh and call him names.
They never let poor Rudy
Be smnrf-free in his butthurt games.
Then one frosty Christmas eve,
Gary came to say:
Don't let Rudies be a drag,
I give you the gift of FLAG!
Then all the posters loved him,
As they shouted out with glee:
Gary the PostMonster General,
Now a new subforum's what we need!

Are Encounters run using Essentials?
Okay, umm, E7 maybe time for a SAN check? ;)
lol. the carols are pretty funny actually. Just really disturbing. :)
Shiny, +1 to what Mac said.
Sigh. And the kidlet drama continues. The only reason he isn't suspended is because the principal was gone today. He was biting the teaching assistant repeatedly. Given that there is only two days before Christmas break strongly considering just pulling him out myself and let him start break early.

Actually this one is yes. I have someone running a variant ranger as a scout.
Edit: They seperate into specific module for Encounters allows these variants.

From the feedback thread -
Jingle Bell,
Serious Forums Smell,
Make them Go Away.
Oh what fun,
To joke and pun
And play Pathfinder all the day.
Yes. They have no idea WTH it means, but they say it. ;)You actually utter my alias at your workplace? Really?C'mon, surely there are others that are worse offenders than myself. I mean, why am I synonymous with such puerile commentary that contains sexual innuendos?That last sentence is just you baiting Urizen, isn't it?Quick story about m&ms...
** spoiler omitted **
O_o
Your kidding right??
When the amigos say a dirty joke at work, I have them follow it up with "I just said an Urizen!!!!!"
Schweet! You've made a literary character from William Blake into a sexual innuendo meme! =)
That's what she said.We average 92 inches a year. You should just come here.Sounds painful.
She? I'm shocked! I thought I knew you.
EDIT: knowing the angel boy in the biblical sense for TOTP.
