Musings Of A Belligerent Nature

You want in, comment and let me know who you are.

As I talked about in a previous post, the wife and I are hoping to take a vacation sometime this summer.  We are pretty sure we want to head out to Britain but the problem is that we haven't the faintest idea of how to plan this.  There is always a travel agent but they end up just being very pushy and pricey.

So, any travel resources you folks use out there?

I appreciate any help.

After a year of waiting and preparation, we are finally going to Necronomicon tomorrow.

We have the costumes and the friends we all wanted together. We have not only exploded with our writings and publications but we are now also publishers.

We have a lot to showcase this year and I'm excited.

Woot. Can't...wait...

The scary part about this whole thing is that is "bi-partisan". Did we learn nothing from Iraq?

The world just got a whole lot scarier...

I've been reading so much modernism and ancient civilization writings lately that my mind is going to explode. Two very different ends of the spectrum and now, I need something to put the balance back into place.

So, your mission as my literature worshipping friends, is to give me something to read.

I'm looking for something that is neither ancient nor modernist. Otherwise, go for it.

Hit me with your best book!

I was in the middle of posting a rant about how "polyamorous" and "polygamous" are entirely two different things when I realized something.

The article I was ranting about was labeled correctly, I had just seen it wrong.

Here is the article I am talking about, dealing with Warren Jeffs of a splinter group of Mormons being convicted.

The article is headed "Polygamous-sect leader convicted" and I thought it had said "Polyamorous-sect leader convicted". My bad. Maybe my coffee and cough medicine drugged mind should stop reading and just go to bed.

Heh heh.

Heheh, thanks Davin!

Goblins chew and goblins bite,
Goblins cut and goblins fight,
Stab the dog and cut the horse,
Goblins eat and take by force!

Goblins race and goblins jump,
Goblins slash and goblins bump,
Burn the skin and mash the head,
Goblins here and you be dead!

Chase the baby, catch the pup,
Bonk the head to shut it up!
Bones be cracked, flesh be stewed,
We the goblins—you the food! 

(Found this on the WoTC FR boards and just had to share.  The original creator is unknown as this was in several people's signatures.  Whoever they may be, they kick ass for givin' my favorite fantasy race some lovin'!)

Robert Jordan passed away yesterday.  I'm saddened by the news as he was a decent guy and was getting people to read.  That's enough in my book to mourn him.
