one.o.eight

In honour of Arbor Day here in the United States, I present this lovely tree. The original image was shot in IR (infrared) by my dear friend over at (pretty pretty) pandafish.org, and colourized by moi. Check out his work. Is nice!

Dork Memories

Positively brilliant! Stephen Lynch's ode to Dungeons & Dragons. Made me think of The Gamers by Dead Gentlemen Productions.

Perhaps I'm an aberration <.< (or maybe just lucky), because my RPG experiences buck the women-less stereotype of gaming geekdom. There have almost always been multiple girl gamers in my game groups. Woot! Sure, there were the rare cases of GM girlfriends, who leveraged their RL relationships to net in-game benefits, but those were thankfully the exceptions. The majority of my girl gamer friends are awesome, wicked, imaginative, even evil role-players. :)

Not sure exactly why I've been lucky in this, but I'm happy for it. Hmm... *theorizes wildly* ...maybe it's me. Yeah! Maybe I'm just that hawt... or something... and they just can't help but flock to my side! :P (I'll go with that.) Well whether or not I am, I know some of them certainly are! Lucky gamer me!

And Low Their Minds Were As Gunpowder

I have a son. He found this game. He draws scenes that include stick figures made of wax. When he gets bored with them, he fills their heads with gunpowder and gives them cigarette torches. As their god, he is so cruel.

Sun & Snow

Today on my way home from work, it began to snow. The flakes looked like little pills of Styrofoam. Not so strange; I've seen this kind of snow before. I've just never seen it snow while the sun was shining.
