Well... if you mean "moron," it's based on "morgon," and should be spelled "morron" - the double-r is to show that the o is supposed to be pronounced short, as in the English "shot" rather than "shoot."

Sounds the same.

G'morning, CH. How's progress on the move?

My day started off with the scent of bacon.

Oh, it's lovely to awaken,
To the scent of frying bacon,
And hear it sizzling in its iron pan.
Although there were no muffins,
It was breakfast made by Puffin,
And it beats out any meal made by man.

oubliette what a great word. no death penalty, just an oubliette.

surströmming sounds just vile.

You know, given that I've grown up on, essentially, a farm, and in the cold it's really hard for me to smell, I won't say I'd never try it. The Wikipedia article makes surstrommingsklamma sound good.

The origin story made me laugh.

Well, it's coming. My partner has cold feet, which is driving me to distraction. He has an anxiety disorder, so his enthusiasm is inversely proportional to his stress level at any given time.

On the upside, I was sure my father was going to shoot it down and he did not (not that I need his permission - I'm 30 - I was just pleasantly surprised he was so supportive).

We are mostly packed, and I've gotten a lot of interest back from employment agencies in LA. It seems like that sort of thing would come together more quickly than holding out for a direct hire. We donated a bunch of stuff to Goodwill (it's nice to declutter a little bit), and sold some other stuff that would be too difficult to bring.

If it's going to happen, it needs to happen immediately. It is looking like it will, but I don't count my chickens before they're hatched.

Mornin' all. I too must decapitate my lawn. It refuses to pay me the homage that is my due. Other than that my staycation has begun and life is good.

Lawn decapitation is an ongoing process at our house. It's sorta like that Dr. Seuss story. When one part of the lawn is done (we use a human-powered mower, so it takes a while), the next part needs to be mown. Some parts are getting long enough that we'll have to scythe first.

Well, Mitchell and Shelly thought it best to stop their research into an anti-hemmorrhoid formula after receiving several letters from Pfizer threatening severe repercussions. Meanwhile, Reginald was shocked to learn that he had been left out of his grandfather's will, and even more shocked to learn that the reason was because his grandfather had learned about Reginald's brief stint as an exotic dancer in South America.

Well, once again, my players made a mockery of my well-laid plans:

I went to extreme lengths to devise a semi-dormant volcano with a clan of white dragon-worshipping variant duergar living inside. I mapped it all out, figured out how they'd use magic to create food and keep poisonous gases outside of their living areas, how they'd domesticate polar bears for guard duty, drew a map twice, etc., etc.

What'd the players do? Waited outside the mountain and lured duergar to them and blew 'em up with fireballs! [Abbreviated version] They didn't even step foot inside my painstakingly-drawn map. I hate PCs!

At least my players are such newbs that they were totally flummoxed by the duergar. "Wait a minute, first they're dwarves, now they're giants? WTF!" Hee hee!

Total kill count by the end of the night:

20 5th-level fighters
1 10th-level wizard
2 polar bears
1 dire polar bear
5 escaping slaves cut down by the raging orcs 'cos they're evil (no xp for them, though!)

Player's side:

Halfling rogue reduced to -2 hp, half-orc cleric and orc barbarian totally effed up, teleporting half-elf sorcerer gets by w/o a scratch. Not a bad night.

CURLY (singing):
Pore Jud is daid, pore Jud Fry is daid;
All gather 'round his coffin now and cry.
He had a heart of gold and he wasn't very old,
Oh, why did such a fella have to die.

Pore Jud is daid, pore Jud Fry is daid;
He's lookin' oh, so peaceful and serene
(JUD: and serene).
He's all laid out to rest with his hands across his chest;
His fingernails have never been so clean.

CURLY (spoken):
Why then the preacher'd get up and he'd say:
"Folks, we're gathered together here today to moan and groan over brother Jud Fry who hung himself up by a rope in the
smokehouse."
(Then there'd be weepin' and wailin', from some of those women.)
Then he'd say:
"Jud was the most misunderstood man in the territory. People used to think he was a mean, ugly fella; used to think he was a
dirty skunk and orn'ry pig stealer."

CURLY (singing):
But the folks who really knowed him, know that beneath the two dirty shirts that he always wore,
There beat a heart as big as all out doors
(JUD: as big as all out doors).
Jud Fry loved his fellow man (JUD: he loved his fellow man).

CURLY (spoken):
He loved the birds of the forest,
He loved the beasts in the field,
He loved the mice and vermin and he treated the rats like equal (which was right).
He loved everybody and everything, he loved the little children only . . . only he never let on, so nobody ever knowed it.

CURLY (singing):
Pore Jud is daid, pore Jud Fry is daid;
His friends'll weep and wail for miles around (JUD: [i]miles around[i]).
The daisies in the dell will give out a different smell
Because poor Jud is under neath the ground.

JUD (singing):
Pore Jud is daid, a candle lights his haid.
He's layin' in a coffin made of wood
(CURLY: wood),
And folks are feelin' sad 'cause they used to treat him bad,
But now they know their friend is gone for good
(CURLY: good).

BOTH (singing):
Pore Jud is daid, a condle lights his haid.

CURLY (singing):
He's lookin' oh, s'purdy and s'nice.
He looks like he's asleep, it's a shame that he won't keep,
But it's summer and we're runnin' out of ice.

BOTH (singing):
Pore . . . Jud
Pore . . . Jud

Class, please note that in this prime example of evil, not only is the hero, Curly, trying to talk his enemy, Jud, into committing suicide, but he's making fun of him in the process. Jud, with his low wisdom, fails his Sense Motive and believes Curly's advice to be sincere.

So Jud is evil, since he's not the hero?

Jud's pretty evil, but I think Curly's actions in this instance are also downright evil as well.

Literal interpretation of the Riddle of the Sphinx: A bear wakes up in the morning. On his way to work, a random chainsaw murderer chops off his two front legs, so he's forced to walk on his hind legs. He goes to the hospital, but he was only able to carry one of his arms in his mouth. So they attach it back to him, and he limps home on three legs.
