What skills are involved for wearing women's underwear?

Suspenders and a bra.

GTA-4 question. So I'm house sitting for ND & KT. KT has a game going on. Can I start a new campaign without blowing KT's away? Do I just go to "new"? I just want to make sure I'm not wiping her campaign out.

Also, Wii. Ow. fun! but ow.

no clue on GTA. I came in to post on the cuteness of geeks. D's birthday is Monday and we're meeting up in the Long Beach area with a probable stop in El Dorado Park where there's an archery range.

My nephew emails, "I guess I should take Deflect Arrows before then, huh?"

I replied, "either that or Cure Moderate Wounds."

D better like his 4th edition books 'cause I just paid retail for these fuckers. And I was so distracted by the price I completely missed that the cute comic book store clerk was hitting on me. He said, "does your boyfriend play D&D?" Which is so totally code for, "do you have a boyfriend?" And he was cute like bandom cute, (can I use bandom as an adjective?) Like he didn't have on black eyeliner but you could tell he'd look reallly good in it. And I said "yes"!.. like a doofus because it's too complicated to explain the best friend/roommate relationship with D. Anyway he was way too young for me.

If anyone is looking for good, moody or atmospheric music for their gaming sessions, I strongly recommend the album Folk Songs by the group Trio Mediaeval. They are a trio of (I believe) Finnish women, singing medieval vocal pieces with minimal accompaniment (including war drums, occasionally).

Oooo sean that sounds awesome

It IS awesome, Sox. It's a perfect fantasy RPG album. It's got a war song, and a wedding processional, and some happy, dance around the Maypole songs, and various dirges, hymns and prayers.

More on Trio Mediaeval:

They Norwegian, not Finnish.

And yeah, many of their songs sound like they belong in Lord of the Rings or something (actually, in my head, this album has become the official soundtrack of George R. R. Martin's Song of Ice and Fire).

One of the songs is called Nu Solen Gar Ned (The Sun is Setting). I looked around for the lyrics, and was able to find a translation. It's a prayer for the setting of the sun, that has a solemn, almost dirge-like quality. I just watched the sun set while listening to the song.

I think I may have shattered myself.

Omnis, you can create a profile for yourself on the main xbox console and then can sign in on your profile, start a new game, and save at will. Starting a new game in current mode would default to an ND game. You won't hurt either of our games by doing that, but you won't have a place to save, either.

I love the email gaming idea!

Also, did our wee little thread have its first mini-kerfuffle? Aw, now it's a real thread! *sniff* They grow up so fast!
