Old School

I present to you the original Blood Bowl. And anyone who knows me knows it's a miracle I still have this, as I am as opposite a pack rat as you can get. Notice the high quality box art is as subtle as the game title. Not enough blood though. Or bowls. You can't call the thing Blood Bowl and have neither blood, nor a bowl.

Fantasy Football

Before there was fantasy football, there was the oh so subtly named Blood Bowl. A board game from the late 80's, it's hard to describe, the closest thing is chess. You have 11 playing pieces on your side, each has specific movements it can make, throw in some dice rolls. Anyway, I played the heck out of this in Jr. High / High School (I was this cool back then too, can you believe it?) A computer version has been out for a few years, it's an exact recreation of the board game, only now a computer rolls the dice. I ignored it, then Steam had it on sale for super cheap so I figured what the hell. Really been having fun playing it again, more than I expected.

Cat Filler

Wasn't going to post this, having chosen the other picture as my "Pic O' The Day", but I like the Mango Super Action Blur Effect(TM) so thought I'd go ahead and throw it up here rather than just delete it. Besides, given my sporadic posting lately this place could use a few more pics.

Trunkcated

Mango helps bring in the groceries. And by help I mean wander around the trunk then do his best job of tripping you while on the way into the house.

4 Gs Are Better Than 3

Just got my new 4G mobile broadband. Prognosis = noticeably faster than 3. Also, powered by apples. That's apples, not Apples.

Shuttle Sunder

A few pictures of NASA taking apart Discovery. Little known fact, the space shuttle was mostly built from aluminum foil and erector sets.

Wipe It. Wipe It Good.

Re-upped the ole' man badge today. Replaced the wipers on the G35. I didn't even use tools, because I'm hard core.
