Under the Rose
Feb. 2nd, 2008 08:14 amFive years ago yesterday, we lost Columbia.
Tomorrow's the Super Bowl, probably bringing the Patriots to a 19-0 season. Small get-together with dear friends, much swearing at the TV, and anticipation for the promised Iron Man commercial.
Speaking of ... I am still loving Ed Brubaker's run on Daredevil so very, very much.
Finished my read of World on Fire, and I'm pretty happy with it. The chapter on tradecraft is a good look at espionage operations, and reads like a good update to good ol' GURPS Espionage. A couple of new base classes, several advanced classes, the first master classes, and new feats and origins provide lots of material for character-building.
Need to do some laundry today and swing by the office for some treadmill time. Listening to podcasts on gaming helps that time pass.

It takes a few time to get the pattern/steps down, but it's been the most effective of the ones I bought after Christmas. To be fair, I haven't tried them all yet, and it takes so long to get the steps down that I'm too annoyed to start some of them. :P
(I got mine at Target, but Amazon is cheaper if you can get the free shipping.)
