Paizo? Cool! I thought they were locked into their Pathfinder stuff. Are you doing something for that?

ION, a typical weeknight around our house. I'm looking at SitterCity.com for a babysitter, and R is looking at a DVD porn site. He's reading the reviews aloud. I've learned two things: this site only cares about the technical stuff, like which lenses were used, and the new-to-me term for (I presume) spermicide: "Population pudding."

Unfortunately, it's up against The Unit, which means right now, I won't be watching Reaper first run.

Yeah--C watched the Unit, too. So I've got some reprogramming to do on the DVR.

!!!! Where?

Steven's Point, Wisconsin. We're waiting to see what the offer is and working on pro/con lists.

They also have a line of modules they're putting out under their Gamemastery line, and it was an open call for one of those upcoming modules. They were already planning on putting out this open call, but with the planned release of 4th Edition next May, it's on a very aggresive schedule (since this module will still be under 3.5 rules). They'll announce the 10 finalists by next week, and will expect a full outline of the module from those 10. The winner will be chosen by the end of October, and will have a deadline of January 1st to turn in a 22,000 word module. I think I have a pretty good shot at being a finalist.

And even if not picked, I expect any of the 10 finalists will be approched for other writing projects in the future, even without open calls. They've also said they want to do at least one open call a year, so the next one will very likely be under the 4th Ed ruleset, but I'm okay with that too.

Although there's no guarantee Paizo will switch to 4th Ed, I think it's pretty likely. Still, Vista is not exploding like Microsoft thought it would, so there's precedent for industry leaders' newest and "greatest" not catching on like they think it will. We'll see.

Some friends and I once rented a "porn bloopers" tape, and were quite disappointed when it was really stuff that just hit the cutting room floor, usually the director stepping into the shot to give "direction" or holler at an "actress." there was no funny at all, which was what we were hoping for.

Apparantly porn people can be surprisingly dry and humorless.

Was that the one hosted by Ron Jeremy? That's where I learned the definition of queef. Ahh those innocent days before my perv vocabulary was multisyllabic.

Was that the one hosted by Ron Jeremy?

I don't think so. Being hosted by the Hedgehog could only have improved this tape. It was very boring and disappointing.

That sounds like the one I watched. The most exciting moment was when two actors got caught in a hot tob having sex Not On Camera! The nerve!

Maybe porn bloopers are just not that interesting.

How old is this Ron Jeremy hosted tape you speak of? Maybe it was the same tape, and I'm just misremembering. This was easily fifteen years ago that I saw the tape in question.

And yeah, maybe porn bloopers just don't tend to be very funny.

I think the only real blooper I remember with any detail was one of the actresses talking to the director off camera about whether her boots should be off or on, and that she thought they should be off. The director wanted them on.

I'd guess I watched it on or about 1995.

Only I could have unresolved shit with a cat.

Nah, you and all other cat owners, I think.

looks at scars.

Yeah. Glad the little furball made it home safely, though!

I'm quite tickled by people getting in trouble for having sex in private, rather than in public. Nice.

Reaper sounds rather good.

So, my skirt has split. And it's 11am, and I'm going to be teaching until 4pm (if we include my journalism club after school). If I hitch the floor-length skirt up a bit, it's still a very long skirt and the rip isn't obvious. So I don't need to go home and get changed, right?
