Have a good day off tomorrow, CMJ!

Just a general observation, that's all. Good guys don't always get the girl.

Geez, CMJ, you are such a MN geek I wanna hug you. I was thinking about peter's "setup fatigue" thread in the AATE forum, about whether or not readers were suffering that problem with the Last Chronicles. Well, I like SRD's story setups. The whole of Book One of Mordant's Need is a giganti...

Blackhawk, your attitude is commendable. I'm trying to read the Last Chronicles for the simple joy of it, too, which is why I haven't participated much in the Runes and FR forums. And I only joined the AATE forum to put in my 2 cents on the opening chapter before things got too crazy in here. Everyo...

If it's a guy, then it's Harry Connick Jr.

If it's a celebrity female, then I'd like to hang out with Devon Aoki, who played Miho in Sin City.

My hat's off to you, sindatur!

(I don't wear hats, but just pretend I do.)

I think it's a little Pantheon wink-wink they're having, sin.

lorin, you put up with all that craziness for nine years? Good heavens. I can't wrap my mind around it. Sending you good vibes, hugs and even a virtual cup o' coffee and Tim Horton's donuts if that'll help. Got nothin' else to say. Your story just floors me. :faint: I'm not sure either! It's a word ...

That was a crazy movie. (In a good way.)

Hope this research leads to breakthroughs in treating diseases like Alzheimer's, like the prof said.

I never tried Tron 2.0. A sad statement all by itself, but it shows how far I've fallen out of the PC gaming mindset. Before The Matrix, there was Tron. Actually, before the Matrix, there was Johnny Mnemonic. Think on that and be dismayed! Tried watching Johnny Mnemonic when it aired, but switched t...

Have to give Dukkha kudos for weirdest/most outrageous use of a Chronicles scenario for a blues song.

Uh, Stone, is there such a thing as too much silliness in the Win Wayfriend's Money game?

Thanks for the article, Fire Daughter. I really had no idea the HIV epidemic was affecting women to such a degree, but there's kind of a sad logic to it once I think about it - the situation in Africa.

I just don't like waking up in the dark all of a sudden, after having gotten used to brighter mornings for the last couple of months. It throws me off. Was groggy going to work yesterday morning. This is what happens when our lives are ruled by the clock.

I guess Hurtloam Hotel is "bluesier" but I like the nihilistic feel of White Gold Wielder Blues.

Sure, but my taxes are supporting that largely decorative institution. In fact, we spend more per capita to support the Queen than the Brits do. And that makes me royally ticked off.

Sorry for going off-topic.

Well, I hit the links to the videos and I got the message, "Not available in your area." Oh well. I was half-expecting that anyway. Just add that documentary to the list of things that make me wish I was on your side of the pond. The UK now has the best science and nature programs, in addi...

You're quite the picture of Bohemian charm, balon!

That is a lot of unfettered cuteness going on!

Never saw the original Mission: Impossible series, but really enjoyed the Eighties reprise - in fact one of my top favorites from that decade. It deserved a longer run. I will also remember Graves for his contribution to the Airplane! movies, my all-time favorite parodies. Anyone involved with my fa...

Why is refueling banned? An attempt to level the playing field?

Yeah, it's daylight savings for us too. We now synchronize with the U.S. But it still feels too early in the year to me. Give me a couple of decades to get used to it. Heh, I personally agree with Fire Daughter. The whole thing just messes up people and systems, like the computer program at our old ...
