"We had no sex education. We had a lesson on reproduction in the frog - not a very helpful role model - followed by a lesson on periods (when we were 14, so already too late) followed by a lesson on venereal disease. Apparently we were meant to deduce some connection but I certainly never did and was left with a lifelong unease around frogs."

hi everyone,
done some gardening, sabine is on a bicycle tour with my mum.

Good lord, Accept! They opened up one of the first concerts I ever went to as a young metal head \m/00\m/. Rock on!
*blink*
Good afternoon or evening or lazy Sunday morning to our Australian brethren =D
Busy Satirday here, had to do a bunch and doing some garden prep as I am sure Aeglos did today. Now segueing to lawn chopping. Let's hope that mover kicks over!
One week I will be DMing a homebrew game. I am hoping it goes over well. I have got to work on the particulars tonight. Oy, the math! I envy you fun with numbers folks. I am so a literature person.
Well, a monkey's work is never done
*blink*

I only know of Accept because of BASTARD!!! They must be good if they appeared in the manga/anime.

No, they're good in spite of the fact that they were referenced in a manga/anime.

Oh no, I didn't mean it that way, it came out wrong. I more meant to say they must be good if they crossed the pond to Japan. Lots of rather discerning metalheads and innumerable cover bands there.
Prepping for Darklight Sisterhood Sunday.
No longer prepping for Darklight Sisterhood Sunday- player is ill!!
Man, everyone must be busy tonight.

Gotcha. Although as I recall, Japan LOVES 80's style rock.metal bands.
Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens...
Trying to avoid the tornadoes actually.
Keep your head down. We got lucky, but they all seemed to funnel through your area. Funnel? Get it?
Keep safe all you FaWTLnauts, FaWTLeers, and FaWTLonians who facing bad weather.

The warnings told us that the Tornado was heading from the south west heading north east and would miss us in the north. Turns out it did miss us, but to the south and slightly east. a bit close for comfort. Seeing so many fire and rescue squads rush by is also a bit unnerving. The area south and east of us has been declared a disaster region. At least mobile home park, was in the area. I say was, because from what I gather it does not exist anymore. That being said I have heard of no one sustaining any big injuries. Just hundreds of millions of dollars in damage including parts of the air port which were hit by strait line winds of 89 MPH and Spirit Aerosystems which had some chemical leakage and had to be shut down.
I was trying to sleep but my blood pressure is up too high and another round of severe thunderstorms is now moving into the area. Unlikely to produce tornadoes though.

The line of storms is going from Odessa Texas up to Minneapolis Minnesota. Lucky me is just right in the middle. 1,223 miles, 1968 km long. Man it is so hard to think so big. 1.2 X the distance the Proclaimers would walk, just to be the man that walks a thousand miles just to fall down at your door.
Big storm. I hope it is a calmer night for everyone else.

I don't know if it is still that way but in the 90's Japan loooooooved german metals, bands that played here in front of 200 people and where completly unknown in Amerika filled5000er Arenas in Japan.
Accept where great, and I am very very happy that they are on top again, their last record sold well and the hall was packed (and it was a big one).
@Patrick:
Accept where my second concert back when I was16 (first was Saxon + Motörhead)
I am very pleased that my tour shirt from 1993 still did fit :-)

The Proclaimers were cool and you are showing your age :-)
Where I grew up was the end of the line for cyclones that hit the east coast of Australia, 99.9% of the time when the cyclones when they hit they had been downgraded to a tropical storm. The cold current and Cape Byron would push them out to sea. We used to go to the light house and watch the storms.... They were spectacular. My friends that surfed loved cyclone season, the waves would get a an extra 2-3 feet on them.
Any way CJ stay safe.

These guys were the first concert I went to - The Choirboys: Run to Paradise .

I've met a few Australians through the second job, and they have all raved about Australian Chinese food, maybe one day I'll compare.You're not close enough to Brooklyn/NYC/Queens for it to be genuine.I see your ‘genuine’ Chinese food from Brooklyn/NYC/Queens and raise you the Chinese food you can get in Sydney (Cantonese cuisine at least, I have no point of reference for other varieties of Chinese cuisine available in NYC).
It'd be cool if you did come down our way man.

So big news in the Moorluck household. I decided to get off my butt and finish my degree. Which means taking this huge SAT like test. I think I'll do ok with the reading and writing portions, but the math will be a pain. So I will be studying my ass off!!!
I feel a lil silly, but I have gone all the way back to fractions, from there I'll move to decimals and then to algebra. *shrugs*
Good luck Solnes!

Did you know that NYC has the largest ethnic Chinese population outside of China? Take that, Sydney and San Francisco!You're not close enough to Brooklyn/NYC/Queens for it to be genuine.I see your ‘genuine’ Chinese food from Brooklyn/NYC/Queens and raise you the Chinese food you can get in Sydney (Cantonese cuisine at least, I have no point of reference for other varieties of Chinese cuisine available in NYC).
I knew there was a big Chinese population (I have a Chinese sort-of-relative who lives in nyc, I didn't know it was the biggest. Learn something new every day.

Good morning FAWTLY LAND!!!! Happy Sunday!
We all had a great day yesterday. I DM'd Kingmaker for three of my players, while my wife and kid were hanging with the hosts wife and kids. Later in the evening, the wives went off to eat/drink, while myself, the host, and one other player watched the kids and did a little more kingdom development.
All in all, it was a great day!
Stayed up all night watching Creepshow 2 and uhh...reading articles on the internet. Not sure why.
About to go make breakfast..FHDM's Famous Blueberry Pancakes, cheesy scrambled eggs and baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaacon.
The countdown to Kingmaker has begun. Today we get chicken also. Hot Damn!
I do hope one day to pop in on everyone playing Jess Door Kingmaker. I will probably parachute in or something. Look for the Haterade(tm) parachute, that will probably be me.
The house now smells like hickory bacon.
HICKORY BACON!!!
We had a creepy night with no clouds, no moon, and vigorous warm, humid breezes, but nothing happened. Hope your weather calmed down and you got some sleep, CJ.
Indeed, some bad weather may be heading this way. I hope you are okay, CJ.
Wow. Noone around yesterday..noone around today either.
At least we FINALLY got the cable box problem at my place taken care of. We have lost all of our shows on our old dvr box, but we got a new HD dvr box and are starting to tape things even as we speak. The greatest losses were the Legion of Super Heroes cartoons for me as well as season 1 of young justice; for my wife it was her episodes of Modern Family and Mike and Molly. We both mourn the loss of our Krod Mandoon and Archer season 3.

That is a real pity FHDM, I have been thinking recently of backing up some of the stuff on my dvr to dvd or something ... probably won’t get around to it though.
If I lived nearby I would lend you my Buffy, Angel and Firefly DVD sets so that you had something to watch while you rebuild your collection. ;-P

Yeah, the hard drive had been going for a little while. I'm pretty sure we'll see everything but Legion of Super Heroes on Netflix soon enough.
I'd truly enjoy the Buffy, Angel and Firefly DVD's, though. Send them my way. I'd really like to watch them.
