It doesn't sound very heroic, but Wraithspire and Razorsharpe kick
so much ass that we needed a violent, dangerous sounding name. In that particular image, we were about to destroy some
Devouring Earth, I think.
La Bete du GevaudanLa Bete is officially classified as a "Dire Wolf" by naturalists, so yes D&D fans, it is a real, but now believed extinct species. However, due to La Bete's existence, many Europeans classify La Bete as a Loup-Garou, or an honest to God werewolf, or lycanthrope. This belief persists to this day, even into official government listings involving the creature. So depending on where you live, Lycanthropes are an actual accredited species.

The
Etherkiller! Sort of like
BAP, only faster and permanent.
James produces:
Striding through the plains, brandishing a vorpal blade, cometh James! And he gives a mighty grunt:
"I'm going to bludgeon you like a rabid gangsta bitch!!"
Foxtrot remains one of the best comic strips going today.
The
asshole/bitch test. I'm 36% asshole, in case you were wondering.
What's worse, that this a pickup line, or that it is so effective there are
warnings about it?
Firefly is coming back! At least the original episodes, anyway.
This
editorial isn't really that funny, but it tells the truth.
"You’ll never play
Planescape: Torment for the first time again. This is not the fault of the industry. This is the fault of time, of aging, of growing up."
Actually, I will play it for the first time, since it is in the backlog of games collecting dust in my room. It's only six years old, i'll get to it just after
Baldur's Gate (seven years old).
This reminds me sooo much of working for the state.
An academic conference is being held in Australia to
discuss superheroes!
Casey sent me this link, which is probably the
most disturbing thing i've read in a long time. It is bad that it is necessary, and gross in the way it works.
Did the Nazis have an
atomic bomb?
Of course no one remembers that
Dr. Miguelito Loveless invented the atomic bomb in the
1800s, but I can't find any images of that device. However, I did finally find out the name of the only other recurring bad guy in "
The Wild Wild West": Count Carlos Mario Vincenzo Robespierre
Manzeppi.
Casey sent me
this opinion column yesterday, and I got into a discussion with Dennis about impeachment. My position? If the evidence is flimsy, the charges will hurt everyone by looking petty and politically motivated. However, if the evidence is solid enough to prove intelligence was altered, then Bush and Cheney and anyone else involved need to be prosecuted to the limits of the law.
