Saturday Game

Our Tunnels & Trolls adventure went very well. First Ken St.Andre is a great GM, working even with our best lunacies and helping point out tactics that our least experianced player (Ken's son) might have missed. So we managed to basically complete our pc's mission of acquiring some rare snake venome. Sure we got nearly killed doing it and then we cut down the alchemist who hired us, but he deserved it!

But most importantly Ken succesfully sold T&T on Noah and Miles and me on upgrading to the new edition. The rules changes are fairly minor, but are definate improvements. And still keep to the rules light feel of the game...

Oh and I got him to sign my copy of Arena of Khazan. Super sweet!

Zee car

Ok, so it was basically my thermostat. It was stuck to maximum on or something and that was screwing things up. But the overheating from when the radiator was dry melted all the gaskets or something. So now I need to have zee car taken in for work, leaving me carless for at least a couple days...

A poll of importance!

Sunday Premieres

Ok, so three shows in a row with their season premieres.

1st up is one of my former favorites, The West Wing. And it seems to have some of its old soul back. But then it still has pointless overly dramatic storylines (in this case the treason/press leak story), ones that seem to try and be relevant but come off as heavy handed and clumsy. Also everything seemed...slow. I think they've slowed down the tempo of the dialogue. Which annoys me. Also Josh and Donna? Sure, he had no other good choice, but damn that was cold...

Next show was Desperate Housewives. So even though I'd only caught maybe one episode in four last season, I still easily picked up all the major story lines from last year and the hooks for this year. The show still doesn't really do anything for me positively or negatively. Its an ok way to kill an hour...

Last up is a show I managed to catch like once last season, mostly 'cause of my game schedule, Grey's Anatomy. And that episode was pretty damned good. And catching the premiere confirms it. This is a freaking terrific show and definately one worth scheduling time for...
