Shelves shelves shelves

Spent a few hours today knocking these together. They don't look like much, but that's over 300 pounds of books.

The big whiteboard

After a year and a half in my garage, I finally got the 12' x 4' whiteboard hung up in the basement!

Arkham Horror Halloween

Will this become a new tradition? Probably not. Need sleep too much...

Totally sweet

Bigfoot?

I thought he was in my freezer?

ORLY?

Is this the best way to represent NM? What about Billy the Kid? Or Smokey?

How to speak like you're Welsh: Lesson 1

I was watching Fireman Sam on the PBS. And in this episode a little girl had a squirrel in her room, and it caused a fire. All through the episode she kept talking about her Squee-doo. I thought that was the name of the squirrel. But it isn't.

Lesson1: Squirrel = Squee-doo (Say it fast and put the accent on the second syllable.)

SteamPunk @ DC08

I noticed it too. Tons of people dressed as Victorian era adventurers, only armed with fantasticly improbable weaponry. And welding goggles. You can't forget those...

And women in corsets and dresses with what we used to call "Granny Boots" in highschool. And welding goggles.

Apparently in the Steam-Punk aesthetic there is no occasion in which it isn't appropriate to be prepared to do some welding. And who can blame them? In a world where giant robots and aliens from mars can attack your city while you're trying to hold your own in a game of billiards at the gentlemen's club - who's to say you won't need to pause and do some welding?

Weird Tales's website has an interesting article about the rising popularity of this genre/aesthetic.
Enjoy.

Spring is Near...

DragonCon is over, new friendships have been forged and as the calendar rolls on toward autumn, these maples begin to show red at their fringes. To a fly a year would be generations, to a tree it must seem a moment. Here's to a year like a tree...

Party on Groethe

That's a weak Wayne's World joke.

Randi looks amazing!

Derek and Randi loitering outside the 'future of skepticim' track.

Beneath the Hilton

That is no dead which doth game
And after strange aeons this poem's still lame.

Starcraft anyone?

Looks interesting, but I prefer the PC version.

Actually

1, 4, and 5. Dang it!

My guess

Without dowsing, my guess is 2, 5, and 8.
