Usually those go in reverse order for me.

I made my new Hurlshot Family Wasteland Survival Team. I'm a smart ass with a bit of pistol skill, my wife is a hard ass with a shotgun, my daughter talks to animals and can tinker with toasters, and my son is charismatic and like to hit things with a bat.

Well yeah, it's easy to be a team player when your team has been winning.

I can predict the future: Hillary = Obama part 3, more sneaky freedom act stuff, foreign affairs will stay the same. Bernie = Heh, he ain't gonna win. But if he did, big business will tie everything up and he'll get little done. Trump = Seriously? Probably won't be able to get anything done, and might be the first president to lose interest and resign. Bush = Health care plan might see some changes. Foreign policy will take a hit. Off the top of my head that is it.

I always like to point out the fact that the Big Bang Theory was originated by a Catholic priest.

They already have 130k on indiegogo I hope they can make it work as advertised because I could really use it Hah, it did seem a bit too good to be true. Plus all the guys in the video had beards.

Religion deserves plenty of the bad rap it gets, but I do believe that the 'Catholic Church versus Science!' stuff is fairly overstated.

To be fair, Amerigo gets a pretty large tribute in the form of two continents being named after him. But Columbus, despite his flaws, is still the first guy to take his ships west, hit land, and then return with good enough charts for subsequent explorers. The Vikings in Newfoundland is a fascinating story, and the mystery of Zheng He gives us some fun speculation, but neither triggered the massive changes in the Americas and Europe that came with Columbus's journey.

Damn, that slide from Utley. I like Utley, I don't think he was trying to injure Tejada, but I don't know how you call him safe after that. Talk about adding insult to injury. Tejada may have missed the bag, but so did Utley.

Indignation and annoyance? Where are you getting that? I'd say I'm waving my dismissive apathy flag pretty clearly when it comes to this issue. I post a flippant remark, you post about ignoring me. I then posted a cute cat picture.

You've really opened my eyes to the plight of the disenfranchised VO workers. I weep for them, quietly of course, so as to fully represent their struggle. Somebody already said this earlier, but if I'm really going to feel bad for a group involved in making games, it's going to be the bug testers.

Anyone who trivializes the bull**** that these people are fighting against down to this is worth an ignore, in my book.

I wonder if Ros typed 'Bald no' into google to get that image?

You must be designing the Bay Area. ba-dum *tsk*

Oh no, we might need to go back to reading stuff.

I'd back him, but I doubt my administration would go for it. The focus of the lesson revolved around a couple documents from the 9th and 10th century that we were analyzing the role of imams in legal matters. I was comparing it to the Constitution of Clarendon, and then trying to make it relevant with some of our legal issues of today. But Gromnir is right, we barely get to scratch the surface on this, and honestly very few 7th graders have the critical thinking skills to understand the issues in depth. But it's a start.

Are facial veils a big problem in Canada? It's more of a cultural thing anyways, very little to do with Islam.

I spent a bit of time trying to find a decent student friendly recap of the whole Kim Davis situation to go along with my lesson on Islam, separation of church and state, etc. It didn't go well. Our news options suck.

Have you tried the Good Old Games version? Probably your best bet at getting a working version. Although 'good' might be a stretch when it comes to Lionheart.

Egads! I hope it isn't an expensive one. Mine is $100, but I'd lose it if my wife lost hers.

First you post Twilight and now this? Either you have very questionable taste or you are a very bad man. Whoa whoa. I'll admit the Twilight reference was a low blow, but if that song didn't make you want to get up and dance, you need to recalibrate your sense of rhythm.

I imagine there will be. They are finishing up the expansion, so they are probably already working on a decent pitch.

I usually get right into developing a game before the summer ends, and I spend a couple weeks digging it, and then I go back to work and all my energy is sucked away into a black hole.

I always give up on crafting about halfway through the levelling process.
