"His grin was a defense against tears, of course, as with most chronic American smilers."

I'm pretty sure I've changed it before even though I don't remember it as ever being anything else. But considering I took that picture like 4 years ago at a chalk art festival and I've been hanging out around here for... holy crap... 9 years! ... Where was I? Ahh yes, I'm pretty sure I've changed it about 4 or 5 times now

Last day of work before a two week vacation. Not doing anything next week but the week after I'm going to head back to good ole southern AZ for some real life Wasteland action. We have an electric (boogie woogie woogie) fireplace and we love it. It has a heating element that we never use but it does all sorts of neat flames and can even make a crackling fire sound EDIT: Also trying to plan a trip to see the wife's side of the family around New Years but they are spread out over the Baltic states and Ukraine and Russia. Problem is we don't have much time to get visas and her family in Russia doesn't want to come into the EU because I guess they are having a really ****ty exchange rate at the moment. And nobody wants to go to Ukraine. This trip may have to wait until next year

Boneless???? Bruce, I am disappoint

Made 3 batches of chicken wings Sweet chili and garlic Italian Sriracha

Well, one thing is for sure Obsidian games attract the most interesting people

I took all of next week off for this* Me too, man. Me too. *I had a bunch of days I had to use or lose by the end of the year and I was already taking Friday off

Congrats Nep!

Right, we might as well just vote for parties instead of individuals since it seems like that's what most people do anyway

Poor Mrs Claus

I'd probably stick with it if it didn't have the limited actions but I'd rather just grind it out and go through the story one time than wait 20 minutes to get 1 action back or pay money for something I'm not crazy about. I'm not interesting in stretching it out.

LOTRO Rolled up a new Beorning class/race and it's interesting but not sure I want to play through the whole 100 levels again because I'm a completionist and this game is seriously grindy

Grand Budapest Hotel I really enjoyed its humor but my wife slightly less so

Happy birthday to ManifestedISO and Guard Dog

I'm not really digging it so far

Colorado is funding a THC breathalyzer and a Canadian company from Canadia claims to already have a working prototype Sorry, this stuff is newsworthy here

I actually had port and red bull for the first time when I was on leave in Qatar. I was skeptical too but it was delicious. Mind you I only make it if I'm not crazy about the particular bottle of port. So when I'm adventuring in the 15 to 30 dollar range

I have it on no authority that the inclusion of romance is one if the reasons for the delay into 2015

I'm no expert but... Taylor Fladgate, ****burn's, Fonseca, and Sandeman are all brands that I enjoy. Tawny is my favorite followed by white then ruby but you can make some decent ****tails with it if you happen to get one you don't like. My personal favorite is probably a ruby port with red bull

BioWare Considering ‘Mass Effect’ Remastered Trilogy

Sorry, gone about a week ago
