Having never had the stuff, I'd estimate simply because it's a funny word to say. Shawarma. Shawarma shawarma.


What's not to like about marinated lamb and beef smothered in cucumber sauce and served in a warm flatbread, naked guy?

I think they served that in Afghanistan some days. I rocked the hell out of it then.

It's just as often chicken...also more commonly served with hummus than tzatziki here, at least at the restaurants I frequent. Also, it's delicious. :)


Breathing would be nice. Summer colds suck.

A warm flatbread naked guy? I'll take two.

LOL The perils of typing via iBorg. Sometimes that missed comma is crucial.


With tzatziki.

Hmph. I had the best intentions of catching up on some overdue phone calls to various people, and just got a bunch of voicemails. I hate when that happens.

Morning, all. What did I miss?

Well, Scott and Max completed their epic journey across America, documenting life in quaint locations, only to return to their respective homes and find they had been declared kidnapped by aliens and all their friends convinced they were now brainwashed drones for an extraterrestrial menace. Meanwhile, Patrick and Jason were shocked when their attempted hostile takeover of a rival business was thwarted by their target's secret benefactor - Joss Whedon! And, across town, Kirk's wild night performing...No, wait! That's my soap opera!

I just got the mental image of a zombie the afternoon after a first date waiting nervously by the phone for hours. It's kind of sad and hysterical.


Gah. So tired. Grad party started at 2pm then the kids decided to have an after-party. I crashed at 1 but my wife stayed up 'til 3. Guess we can call it a success. :)

What little I have left. I usually let it grow out for 2 weeks, then shave it down to stubble.

Some things would be so much more simple if a certain person in the driver's seat next to me would just learn to go around obstacles.

Hmmmm, traffic seems to be trying to lull me into a false sense of security.

The boy was up at 0440 this morning. Ugh.

Ok, that's enough for now. Got some reading to do.

No way I'm catching up on that just now. I hope the weekend was good to everyone.

I had a wonderful time at our Pathfinder game Saturday:
My Paladin got to kill the king of the fire giants for the second time. Part of her backstory is that she'd killed this particular king during her mid-career (we started the campaign at 14th level), and now we're all journeying through the layers of Hell, and ran into this same king, who apparently after his death ascended to become one of the Dukes of Phlegethon. It was an awesome, awesome fight. It could have been a tpk very easily, but we managed to pull off some very good teamwork and come up with a couple of game-changing tactics at crucial moments. AND we circumvented what was supposed to be another combat encounter with diplomacy immediately following that fight, which was a great relief, because I don't think we'd have survived another fight with the resources we had left. Now, we're on to Stygia.

Also, bonus for the evening: no rape jokes from That Guy, which made the evening more pleasant than anticipated.

When the lovely people at the weather Service say that its going to be "intermittently stormy with heavy showers possible", I should take that to mean "collect two of every animal, for the Lord your God is attempting to flood the earth once more".

Like I missed the bus I was waiting for when it was just drizzling, so I had no choice but to ride the bike. About half way to work, it got truly bad. I ended up passing the bus I missed, which was waterlogged or something. I got to work only a minute late, my arrival heralded by less rain and the plethora of lightning strikes on the horizon. Go Sagittarius!

Silver Crusade

F*+*ing Mondays.

I could have driven to work, but I thought, "No, I'll take the train. There's less traffic and yadda yadda yadda." When I left the house, it was drizzling. When I arrived at work, there was a raging thunderstorm. I had to walk about 3/4 mile through the rain, mostly on sidewalks with an inch of standing water, tempting fate by holding an umbrella over my head while lightning comes down around me. My pants are drenched from the knee down and my socks go squish squish when I walk.

Then I spilled coffee on my shirt.

Heh. FHDM and I posted to b*+~~ about the NY weather at the same time. So you know it's for real.


So Ryan Dancey has come straight out and said "If you don't want any non-consensual PvP in Pathfinder Online this is not the game for you."

I still get the Thornkeep books and stuff so not writing it off as a loss, and now I don't have to decide between playing PFO versus hanging out on the NWN server a bunch of my old online-gaming friends are putting back online.

Luckily, PFO has never been the game for me.

I went searching for game stores on Long Island yesterday.

The first one was creepy. It was the only shop in business in a strip mall where everything else was closed down, and there was one car (presumably the proprietor). Not so promising.

The next one I went to was awesome. The Brothers Grim. They had a stock of out-of-print RPG accessories like I have never seen. It was an entire room of RPG books from pretty much every edition ever. I picked up some 2e Ravenloft stuff to add to my collection. I have a new favorite place on LI.


Yowch FH/CH. Hope one of you guys has a canoe on standby.

I put money into it, the least I could do would be to keep tabs on it to see if it would be at all worth playing.

I'm ardently anti-PvP though, win or lose engaging in any kind of battle against another player (that ends in actual PC death or loss, not a spar) has always left a bitter taste in my mouth, and the lack of a "no-PvP tag" of any sort - much less the declaration of "anyone who wants one is not our target audience" - is a dealbreaker for me.

I'll happily play in a world or game where PvP/group v. group/faction v. faction conflicts exist, because I know some people enjoy that kind of play and more power to them, if that's what they find fun let them have it, so long as there's an opt-out option for those of us who don't enjoy that style of play and just want to explore the world, kill monsters, and hang out with friends. But Goblinworks is pretty much saying that opt-out won't be implemented.

A little disappointing, as I'm certain the game will be very pretty and probably fun outside that, and free-to-play/try for the basics is very attractive. But again, leaves me with one less thing potentially cluttering up my already-occupied schedule of projects and pasttimes.

I have a feeling that Goblinworks dropped the ball on PFO. There are a lot more Non-PVP players than there are PVP. I know that I tend to loathe PVP. I played City of Heroes for over 5 years and I only went in the PVP zones when there was no choice. Granted, PVP brings in an element to play that non-PVP can never match, but the jerkwad element tends to come out to play way too often in PVP for my taste.

I'm okay with that, as that element is completely undesirable to me. I don't know what to blame it on, as it's not simply my dislike of losing because I get the "bluh" feeling from it even if I win.

My problem is that I am really not that good at PVP. Plus I tend to dislike jerks who try to ruin the game for everyone. Sadly, that is what I am now expecting with PFO.
