Has anyone watched Stranger Things on Netflix? I'm hearing good things about it, so I'm thinking about checking it out.

A few years ago I got a knock on my door a bit after midnight.
Get up. there's another knock while i'm on the way to the door.

I answer the door with my bowie knife (first thing i grabbed on the way to the door) held down and to the side a bit.

The person knocking is a deer.

I kinda look left and right around the deer for the hidden camera, and it walks off. In the snowbank on my walk, by the bird feeder is another deer that's stuck. So i grab my shoes, the shovel, dig it out, and they both wander off.

Ok, i get that these deer have been living with people for multiple generations since we enroached on what little woods they had left and aren't afraid of people.

They may have hung out around my house and know that we're particularly non threatening humans...

But how many times have they seen food delivered to realize that if you bang on that spot of the house, a human comes out of it?

I was a park ranger at the pool in a state park (effectively a janitor, occasional bouncer, and on a really bad day, life guard)

In pre season, sitting on a rock wall outside having lunch. I set it on the wall, sit next to it, put my hand down for the cheese.. nothing there.

I look turn around, look down and there's a racoon holding the bread, reaching their hand up for the cheese too.

We scramble away from each other, peer at each other in pretty much identical fasion. I can see she's female and pretty obviously nursing, so Bread. Cheese. Little mustard, cut it in half and hand half over.

Artwork an animation is above average. Mecha designs are...not to my taste, but that doesn't mean they are bad. Still watching.

Also, check out Heavy Object when you get the chance. Something tells me you would love that series.

It is.


Finally getting over a killer headache I had all day. Couldn't stand to wear headphones or even glasses, it hurt so much. Haven't had a headache like that in ages.


I have had a lot of those lately. :P

My wife says I should be more concerned.

She's usually right. I should listen to her. ;P

it's okayish. Interesting references to pacific rim. It is trying to do a bit too much for my tastes though.

~shrugs~ Well, it was worth a shot. I was busy today, so I did not get to episode 3 yet. I did enjoy it enough to go further with it, especially since it is only 13 episodes.

Geez. It's 1 a.m. and both dogs are asleep on my bedroom floor. One is howling in his sleep, the other is running and yipping in hers.

What a zoo.

GOOD MORNING TREEFORTNAM!!!


After my 16-hour-odyssey of watching delusional drug addicts pace in circles in secure rooms (Don't do hard drugs people, seriously..) I am finally recharged. About 7 pm last night I had the worst headache and I crashed for nine hours straight (about 11/2x my normal amount). I then figured out that with the unexpected holdover at work I had totally forgotten to take my daily vitamin regime. I'm glad my crushing headache and extreme lethargy was just this.

Now off to give my poor pups a walk in the soupy air and then Krav Maga

*blink*

Don't dawdle! We need our grumpy wizard around to help us defeat Sauron!

Note: I accidentally spelled 'Sauron' wrong. How cool is it that the touch autocorrect function had it in its memory banks? :D

It also did 'Cthulhu' right out of the box, and I've got most of the Golarion gods saved into it.

sends Alton Brown to pull your fire alarm and leave you a quiche


The first one was in the middle of an awful thunderstorm and they thought it was somebody smoking in the top floor hallway (so as not to go out into the storm). Now they think the deluge that day may have gotten into the alarm system wiring because the same alarm is tripping and there's no cigarette smoke. Besides, people can go on the outer stairway to smoke in the open air but sheltered from rain, so there's no reason to smoke inside.

Cigarettes don't trigger normal fire alarms, do they? Well, I guess they do in airplane lavatories, but those may be alarmed for smoking.

All I know is IT EARLY AND BRAYN AM NOT AWAKE.

RPG Superstar 2012

It depends on how sensitive the alarm is. I know our home smoke alarms go off with just a whiff of smoke.


We have unplugged ours. We can't cook with it on. And no, we aren't bad cooks, its just that sensitive.


My parents old ones were so sensitive that cooking from DOWNSTAIRS would set it off, and even a bit of hairspray would trigger it.

It got to where we just left cans on top to deactivate them, (there was a pressure sensitive button on top to silence it, but it wouldn't reset it, just silence it as long as you held it) since that was much easier than taking out the batteries. ;P

Smoke alarms are a pain.

A useful, life-saving pain to be certain, but a pain nonetheless.


Has anyone else seen the preview for "A Monster Calls" starring Liam Neeson as the Monster? It looks pretty good from the preview.

Silver Crusade

They're making a movie?

Oooooo...

I have the book on my Amazon list but never got around to ordering it >_<

A week ago we had a hospital-wide fire alarm at 2am. This was the full shrieking alarms, flashing lights and the switchboard operator calling "CODE RED!!"

We ran up to the source, and...

Someone had decided to vape in the hall bathroom. Likely assuming vape smoke wouldn't trip the alarm. Oops. And since no one on the floor was ambulatory, it was a staffer.

So, lesson learned, don't assume you're safe smoking inside with a Vaping pen.

I've heard you can tamper with the smoke detectors in airplane lavatories and that is acceptable.

What?

I am glad that my favorite hotel bar near Penn Station has reopened. Hotel bars are the best. Especially when you go into the train station and it is a sardine-packed abyss of NOPE.
