And there's a background reason for that sword. Said barbarian claimed it as a trophy from a Frost Giant. so she can only use it properly when she's using the Barbarian rage ability which boosts her strength...

Go for yoga and gymnastic based exercises. They are weight bearing, but the weights are generally your own body. The guy training us for Tough Mudder used to lift weights for about ten years, but for the last 7 or 8, has totally shifted to gymnastic training because he's found it works more muscles in a lot more ways. That and it's generally something you can do with minimal needs for equipment and space.

Hm, I fixed it and the drilling doohicky races into that corner of the corridor and all the plant life goes kersplat. I can't remember if I used mechanical repair, or if it needed computer science to program it. One of those sorts of skills.

On one side if you you can race through the poison a distance and there's a door you can go through and a room free of poison. If you carry on to the metal doors, you can break them down, in which case there's a drilling laser thing you can repair to clear the way.. or smash through a wall into a room full of mutated critters. If you go the other way, its a long corridor full of fans, this one has another corridor running alongside it you can sprint into and out of the poison gas. But you need to have computer skills to override the airlock doors to go all the way up it, or someone to run between the non-moving fans to brute force the door closed so the airlocks open. Once you get all the way around, you can switch on all the vents and that'll suck the poison clear.

A friend introduced me to Longmire, which I've been catching up on. Based on the books about a Wyoming County Sherriff who works next to a Cheyenne reservation, is coming out of a year low due to the loss of his wife... Whose best friend is played by Lou Diamond Phillips as the snarky friend, indian who runs the bar character. Also Katee Sackhoff as the Deputy who used to be a cop from Phillidelphia and is getting used to the difference in culture and policing.. Entertaining in its way. You have to give props to any show that can pull off dialogue like: "It's time we used an O.I.T." "An O.I.T.?" "Yes. An Old Indian Trick..." said with a knowing wink.

Having one of those days where I'm just feeling incredibly grey and introverted and don't actually want to interact with people. Trying to get my focus in so I can get a workout tonight, just have a couple more before Tough Mudder on Sunday, and I want a day or so to relax before then. Of course, the weather's turned here. We've gone from the heat-wave to being lashed with the edge of hurricane weather from the Atlantic, so grey skies, plenty of thunder and lashings of rain with odd hail. I'm hoping it'll break by the weekend and settle somewhere between slashing rain and blazing heat...

Hm, weird, they're showing for me.. The joy of internet oddities.

Honest Disney Posters...

To be fair, you'll need someone who enjoyed their old movies...

For the interesting take, and the imagery.. http://youtu.be/uT3SBzmDxGk

What about the other three? And Angela "Easy Mode" Death? Well, I went with Hex for the mechanical fixery, Big Bert for the muscles, and Bear for the hunting, sniping, general assault rifle of DOOM!. Hm, talking of Angela Deth, if you dismiss her, she seems to totally disappear from the game. I can find all the other companions loitering in the mess hall, but no sign of her in or around the Ranger Citadel. Still pootling along on it, sunk a large chunk of my sunday into gaming in the wasteland now. I'm enjoying it as a pleasant game, but I haven't really been grabbed by anything amazing, just having the nice nostalgia. Getting the Rad Nomads to have peace was a pain in the ass tho.

Well I thought what the hell and plugged the Wasteland 2 steam code I got for backing Eternity in and have whiled away a large chunk of the evening roaming around the AgCenter with my smooth talking, handgun waving ranger shooting pod people...

If we're going to the gym here.. http://youtu.be/0MEqTWqAUQU

Hm, on film related news.. Babylon 5 Movie Reboot a Possibility

http://youtu.be/YSvTkMPB9mI

Of course, if we drop in Weird Science.. how can we forget to at least put one of.. Woman in Red.

Heh, of course season 4-7 is where they kind of pasted over B5's style story arc and had the giant war storyline running through most of it.

Hit DS9 first. Voyager gets a bit too stuck on making all bad guys lose any trait of danger, and every few episodes makes you question why they have a security officer. Either the crew is being kidnapped, the bridge officers are being kidnapped, or someone is stealing the ship...

Don't know how many of you folks know of this, but there is an rpg version in the Humble Bundle type style... http://bundleofholding.com/index/current'>Bundle of Holding Mostly they tend to be rpg pdf bundles from the smaller, indie publishers, but they get the occasional wander into other things. At present, they're doing the Scion stuff from White Wolf's Onyx Publishing. They tend to do a "put x dollars in, and you get 2 or 3 books in pdf, but put y dollars in and qualify for these other 5 or so as well"
