Why Everyone Believes in Magic (Even You)

Jerry Van Dyke

I said number 7 will shock you

If I were a video game journalist, which I'm totally not, I pretty much have my next article here. Good thing I'm not one then... seriously, I'm not. All I can say is that number 7 will SHOCK you!

Not sure if this should go here or in the TV thread because I saw it on Netflix and didn't bother to look up if it ever had a theatrical release or not. Also, it's movie length and since I'm already here... The Farthest: Voyager in Space PS I liked it a lot. Learned a bunch of stuff too.

I got a lot of stares in Russia but I like to think it's because I'm just so damned handsome

I'm curious to see how intelligent weapons pan out and if they have the same issues

I somehow forgot about Colonization Woe is me

I always get 71 year old men and kids mixed up

This is a concern for me as well. Especially since my wife is white and I tend to fit whatever darker skinned ethnicity someone wants to apply to me.

I'm back to SWTOR since LOTRO is back to crashing several times an hour

We had something similar in the military

I dunno why but I liked every even numbered Civ game My dad bought his first computer after we spent all day on Civ2. I think I already told most of that story though.

Napa is also a possibility because my wife loves wine probably more than me and she's never been to the Bay Area. I have family in Vallejo but I haven't been there in almost a decade by now so it'd be nice to see them again. The tough part for me is that I always want to go some place new whereas my wife would be perfectly happy with going back to Positano which was her favorite place ever.

We're not exactly sure when we're going to go since we haven't decided on where we are going, that may be a little backwards but we're weird like that. I think we are going to do two separate trips, one in the US and then another abroad if the cost isn't too bad. That is unless the domestic trip is to somewhere like Hawaii, which is a really strong contender, then it'll likely be just the one trip. Plus we always tend to overdo it. I've been to one of the closer keys, maybe Largo, but not very far out. I actually lived in Florida City for a short while when I got out of the military. I'm still bummed I never made it out to Alaska Thanks to everyone for all the suggestions!

I think I quit IWD2 after the first town. It was too combat focused and I didn't care all that much for the combat. I never tried the first game

I've never been to New Orleans but it's on my list of cities to visit. I have driven though Louisiana when I did a road trip from AZ to NC but I want to say Shreveport is where I stopped. I've been to about 15 other states without the missus and she's been to Hawaii (the big island) before but I haven't.

I like food. Everything else is gravy.... mmm gravy

90s Child Star Jon Paul Steuer Dead at Age 33 He played Worf's son, Alexander Rozhenko, on TNG

Jaws ruined the ocean for me. Then Orca but less so since I didn't plan on killing anything's mate. Then DeepStar 6 because who knows what unknown beasts might want to eat me. I'm probably very delicious. The Abyss actually made me feel slightly safer but still...

I've heard a lot of horror stories from friends, coworkers, and acquaintances who've been to Paris... though most of them praised the countryside

Well, Trump appointed an AG who famously hates weed and an FFC chair that famously hates net neutrality. I don't think the outcome has really been surprising.

I've not been to Fiji but I've thought about going. We did an all inclusive in Cancun for our wedding at a place called Excellence Playa Mujeres and we enjoyed it. I didn't go anywhere last year but I sent my wife back to Estonia to visit her parents. We don't really have a set budget either but we'd like to keep it under 5 to 7k Places we've been Mexico Costa Rica Jamaica Italy Estonia Russia Utah, Nevada, AZ, NM, NY, WY in the US

Hey all, I'm trying to start planning my vacations for 2018 and am looking for some suggestions that I might not come up with on my own. Only real requirements are that it is safe and there is something interesting to see and/or do there. My wife likes the water but nice beaches would just be a plus and not a requirement. Thanks in advance!
