I am starting to get suspicous about TV series which are abruptly ended and then come out on DVD with additional episodes. It is starting to feel like a marketing pattern
Maybe I need to get a thicker tinfoil for my hat.
Dawn: I thought you were adequate. Giles: And the accolades keep pouring in. I'd best take my leave before my head swells any larger. Good night.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
This may in fact be the definition of "perfect weekend." Is the War of the Ring game at all like the old SPI one?
I don't know the old SPI one, but I think they're fairly different, from the reviews.

Gah! I just found out we're having a dinner party for 35 people next Thursday. I have 12 dinner plates. Unless I break out the china, but it's supposed to be a casual buffet thing. The DH has promised New Mexican food to people, and I just don't see serving green chile off of china.
Gah. At least I have a week to prepare. Can you make salsa fresca without cilantro?
I still own the old SPI game. I remember enjoying it quite a bit.
I remember getting my butt kicked at it a lot.
(ETA: probably because I almost always played Sauron...but this was one of the few "little cardboard squares" games that I would voluntarily play)

Ann, that's a ferret.
I'm another who played the old SPI game back in the day.

What is even happening?
Use the china. It never gets used. It's good for it to get used.

True. The last time it was used was, um, 1995? Crikey. I guess I will be breaking out the china and silver, as otherwise it's paper and plastic, and I don't think paper plates will stand up to the food. I hope it doesn't make the guests uncomfortable.

Our wings are not tired.
I can't imagine uncomfortable guests with Raquel as host. China will be lovely.

At least it's all ABCs. Green chile doesn't appeal to Greeks at all. Here's the menu so far:
Margaritas
Chips, salsa, guacamole
Tortilla rollups
Green Chile and Sour Cream Enchiladas
Big Pot of Chili (tm)
Watermelon, Tomato, and Feta salad
White Chocolate Raspberry Cheesecake
The salad's a Greek shout-out, and while the cheesecake doesn't scream New Mexican, the recipe's from Santacafe, so it counts. Now I need a side dish.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Hrrmph. And they say they invented civilization.
