Ooh, shout-out for the old West End Games version of Star Wars! Lot of fond memories of that one. Of course, our GM ran a somewhat goofy game... our group's first broken-down spaceship he described as

Maybe, but I bet their new careers could be measured in hours if not minutes. Medieval/fantasy 'influencers' spending all their time taking selfies with their hand-held magic crystal balls are just too

Agreed. And I'd rather hunt giants than work in government... 😉

RE: Nerd By Northwest #286 – “Good Guys? Or ‘Slightly Less Bad’ Guys?”
I haven't seen the actual expansion for D&D 5e, but I'm familiar with the series and the theme (gotta love Penny Arcade). My guild concept is a little more like a penny-pinching, bureaucratic corporation

I've heard tales of D&D gaming groups that do NOT slaughter every monster they see, sell their enemies into slavery, or create chaos & disruption wherever they go. But like Bigfoot or an honest

To use another movie quote.... One might say this about Ash's father: "He has chosen... wisely." 😁

Ding-Ding!!! I haven't watched it for a while, but I remember a time when some of the 2nd-tier cable channels played that movie over and over and over. Which is why that line was burned into my brain,

True. But there's still a chance to be the first to name the movie reference for the paragraph starting with "pop quiz"! It's an American movie, but was popular enough at the time that most of

RE: The Best Long Gun For Survival, Part 1
Some years ago I signed up for a weekend event with Project Appleseed. I don't know if they're still around anymore, but I found it rather enjoyable and it did help my rifle game some...

RE: Kickman 21x22
I'm guessing that "attention" is the source of his power. Throughout the story arc he seems overly-focused on having all eyes on him and being the focus of everything, like a deity that is only

In terms of the Covid tyranny laws and gov't dictates in place, probably about average. Technically, you're supposed to scan a QR code before going into certain businesses, wear a mask, and so on. But

Let's just say I spent enough time in crappy apartments in Anchorage to see many of the most... interesting... relationship events amongst my neighbors... 😉

The only downside to going home is the relatives & friends INSISTING on discussing politics. Given I'm not part of either US political "side" and have zero interest in either side, I prefer

Naw, Florida is just a wee bit too far away from the Pacific Northwest. Though I gotta say it's tempting, as Florida sounds like one of the places where I can go to a restaurant or show without a jab or

Really? I love having the place to my own. If I didn't happen to love my family, their butts would be living somewhere else!!! 😉

We would be, if only I ever gave half a crap about that silly inter-school rivalry in the first place. Seriously, I never even went to an actual U of A basketball game, which was the big thing back then.

RE: Nerd By Northwest #283 – “Bachelor Pad”
I guess another thing that worked in my favor is that I wasn't a frequent binge-drinker. The guys that were tended to be the worst. Which makes sense... not only have you got all those extra beer cans/bottles
