Did you have any other encounters like "Hey Magic Hat! Hit or Fold!" ?

"It's Like Geek Summer Camp for Adults."
Our second day was spent at sea, which would normally mean it's time to sleep in... but we had a Q&A panel at 9:30am (6:30am, according my my jet lagged brain) so I was up nice and early (damn early... too early... according to my brain) to make it there on time. I'd guess that about 1/4 of the ...
Wil, I think there are a number of us who would enjoy hearing you perform "Hunter". I'd love to hear that or "I Am the Modren Man."
See you on the boat!

I have a very important question for everyone attending JoCo Cruise Crazy 2.
Saturday, I'm heading down to America's Wang to get on a boat, because JoCoCruseCrazy 2: Cruise Crazier is setting sail on Sunday. I hope that it lives up to this video that one of the cruisers (who named themselves Sea Monkeys) created: I know, right? Check out the video he made last year, bas...
The only three entities that I take into account when buying a game beyond my personal friends are Mike, Jerry, and Yahtzee.

on video game reviews and the power and influence of marketing
I came across this post at No High Scores yesterday. It's about how mega publishers are starting to limit access to the media in terms of review copies, overall access, as well as in potential ad money. There are a lot of great things about working in the games industry. You know what the bes...
We were gathered in the school cafeteria watching on tvs scattered through to entire room. As others mentioned, the pure horror of watching the tragedy live was something none of us would ever forget. I recall everyone being sent back to their homerooms and the rest is a blur.
As a consequence the local paper, for the first time ever, ran a color front page. A week or two later, helped along by a classmates father who was employed by the paper, someone from the paper came to our class. They talked to us about that day and explained how the print press responded to the tragedy.
It was interesting to see all of the angles involved with a Stop the Presses event. We used the events that January as a great learning experience. But like you, Wil, I still tense at every launch. Some of them...I haven't been able to watch. And each time I see or hear a successful launch I rejoice.

some of us are looking at the stars
On January 28, 1986, I was home from school with the flu. I remember that, no matter what I did, I couldn't get warm, so I was sitting in a hot bath when my mom knocked on the bathroom door. "There was an accident with the space shuttle," she said, in the same voice she used when she told me th...
You aren't the only one having focus issues relating to authoring a short, Wil. I only have two of the three (my DMG is the next one with the spooky warlock and the huge doors). Thanks for the imagery.
Also...Friday's are looking bleak now with no DnD Podcast. What is the word on your Radio Free Burrito idea?

making plans for nigel
My brain keeps giving me 404s when I try to get focused long enough to write this short scary story (well, I think it's scary. It has a monster in it) in time for Halloween. So I'm doing other things to try and trick it into rebooting the server, like cleaning up my house, playing with my dog, a...
"Memories of the Futurecast doesn't have anything clever to add this week" Lies! The entire episode occurs one week in the future, that is clever. (Thanks again for making these, Wil). Book is ordered. Looking forward to it.

Memories of the Futurecast: Episode Six
Holy crap! It's time for Memories of the Futurecast. Memories of the Future, Volume One, covers the first 13 episodes of TNG, so each week, I'm choosing something from one episode, and performing an excerpt for you. It will mostly be from the synopses, which is where I think the real humor of...
Awesome news, Wil. Will there be a Futurecast this week as well?

Everybody walk the dinosaur. Well, except for you. You're not working out.
I have no idea what the title of this post has to do with the content of this post. In fact, I think there's no relation at all, other than the fact that I wrote them both. But when your brain compels you to quote Was (not Was), it's best to just do what it says, and slip in a Simpsons reference...
