It’s been awhile since I’ve enjoyed some event television. There can be no doubt that the final episode of fan-favorite series Battlestar Galactica was a big frakkin’ deal to the fans. Starting out with a heavy dose of angst, the show began four seasons, a movie, and a mini-series ago. Many were concerned over […]
This week’s Fear the Boot podcast, episode 140, deals with playing the bad guys or evil characters. Most games are focused on good guys – or at least not-evil guys – with traditional western values.

Last night, I watched the HBO Film Taking Chance and cried like a baby. A big, man-baby, mind you, but make no mistake – weeping occurred.

While in Saint Louis this past weekend, Adam “A. David” Pinilla (Podge Cast) invited me and others over to his place. We arrived to find Luke Meyer (Podge Cast), Tony Mast (Backseat Producers), and Adam playing cards. Immediately, I was given my man-hug from Brother P.

Sweet fancy Moses, I’m tired this morning! Fortunately, coffee and little chocolate donuts have swept in for the rescue! Yesterday was an unrelenting day of gaming goodness here in the greater Saint Louis area. Games started at 11:30 AM and pounded on for twelve hours.
