You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

aw I didn't think about how sitting out this game means I won't get to follow along with the crisis cards.

We made it to Chicago! Now I'm sitting at the computer with a view of the GIANT screen where the boys are playing RDR. I thought something would be lost when the game got blown up so huge but it's actually way better. And the surround sound is so sweet, I'm noticing things I never have before, like you can hear the windmills creak.

Pretty much. I woke up (in the passenger seat) in New Mexico and we were in a very scary snow storm. D kept his cool and soon we were out of it and it was smooth sailing the whole rest of the way. We got to the crater too late but we were able to see the Leaning Tower and Cross of the West in Texas (woop de doo)

Now I'm finding out that Borderlands is possibly even more cool looking on the big screen than RDR.

CO's have been sent in for this skill check. C'mon Humans! Let's start the game off with a pass!

I think we had 3 folks indicating some positive abilities on the check. What say everyone else? Any interrupts? If not, let's get the check started.

We understand. Your first card pull does nothing for the check.

A reminder, we're still waiting for everyone to pass or play on interrupts.
