If you follow table-top gaming at all, you may have heard that a new edition of Dungeons & Dragons is in the works and set for a May 2008 release.
As is often the case, the game was introduced to me by friends and classmates, and our first sessions took place in the high school […]

Has come and gone. Unfortunately I was not able to attend and I missed Wil Wheaton’s keynote speech, among other things
I am resolved to attend next year however, so we’ll see how that turns out. Luckily, Wil’s speech is available for download here. If you consider yourself a gamer at heart, I highly […]

Last night I went to see the movie Stardust with some friends. The movie is based off of a story written by Neil Gaiman which I have never read, but now find myself compelled to purchase and, perhaps, devour. The film, in a word, is magical. In two words, it is magically delicious.

The anniversary of my birth approaches, as does that of my conjointe. Somewhere, I am certain, someone takes great pleasure in the incremental details, but I can’t be bothered to concern myself with such minutia.
