What you did today
Hehe, I was meaning that the four days we were there felt like a month of drinking. The beer pong and bull riding were at the PBR Rock Bar and the cheap Petron shots were right around the corner from there at the Sin City Brewery. Caesar's Palace has one of the best buffets in the city but its a little pricey for a buffet (~$45 / each). Linq is right across the alley from Jimmy Buffett's Margaritaville. We had dinner there Wednesday, which was kinda crap tbh, but the atmosphere and servers make it fun.

What you did today
Spent a month in Vegas this week (Sun-Wed). Had an awesome time and am pretty sure I have compromised my liver by ~20%. My wife and I are oldsters so we don't go to night clubs, preferring regular bars. We found a place selling $5 shots of Petron. Then there was something about beer pong (first time player). Then I got talked into riding a mechanical bull but thank god we got distracted and that never happened. We started talking to an Aussie and his girlfriend that were playing on the next beer pong table over and they turned out to be super cool and fun to hang out with. I hope I start pooping solid again soon.

Those were originally bred for hunting lions, right? When I was stationed in Jacksonville my neighbor had one of those. Giant, beautiful, friendly dog and I love how the fur on the spine runs counter to the rest of the coat. I think I once read that they instinctually attack from behind so it always made me a little nervous how it would follow me to the pier and watch me fish.

Obama to Propose Free Community College
Well, it could be. They have money to spare compared to the rest of us. Better and more educated society and all that. Sure, sure. Its always somebody else's problem to solve your problems. Disclaimer: "Your" is not you.

I can vouch for Labradors. Very smart and loving. DO NOT consider a Boxer as they are dumb as a box of hammers. And it goes without saying that dogs are much more maintenance than cats.

No Thrown Weapons?
That's a good point but guns, bows and crossbows are already similarly "magic" (no ammo) so is it that big of a stretch? Aside, I liked ammo in the IE games as you could get ammo that had different properties to damage or hit. Made it a little more interesting. Arrows of Detonation FTW!

Let me guess, this will be financed by "the rich"?

RANDOM VIDEO GAME NEWS
I would punch a baby seal in the face for another D&D game using the same rule set as the BG series but that aint gonna happen. Can anyone provide an opinion on 5E? Is it enjoyable? Would it translate well into a PC game?

Eh, they could handwave that by calling them "returning" weapons.

No Thrown Weapons?
Interesting, I didn't know that. I don't think its a technical problem since there are other range weapons in the game. Maybe it wasn't in the budget?

I learned that fights don't give you experience
Technically, you do get kill xp, its just been renamed Beastiary xp. And I think it has diminishing returns but Im not 100% on that. Basically it functions as a poor mans ECL.

Trolling? Why I never!!! I have learned from experience that every time there is some shooting we all gaze deeply into our navels and wonder aloud: "How can this happen! Why do we live in a society with weapons! People don't kill people, guns do! The only reasonable solution is to disarm France. Duh.

What you did today
If you find "the rest of the world" against you, its probably you. Its a balmy -10 in Chicago today. I have to remember to go start and run my car for ~15 minutes during lunch to make sure my battery doesn't crap out.

Boots of Speed!
On one foot, Im excited to see them make it into the game. On the other, I wonder what the obligatory "opportunity cost" will be. Probably drains Health or something like that.
