Tonight was a fluff episoode, no denying it. But that’s okay, because it was a fun fluff episode. Also, I have a soft spot for Hurley, so when things center around him, I am happy. The few things that happened in this episode that actually advanced any of the storylines could have […]

Wow.
That has to be one of the best episodes I’ve ever seen. Not just of Heroes, mind you, but one of the best I’ve seen of any show. It’s focus was pretty narrow, with only a few of the major players in evidence, but that allowed them to go deeper into all of […]

I have to say after last week, this episode of Lost was more than a little anticlimactic. Not really bad, per se, just disappointing in light of what I’d been hoping for based on Desmond’s story. I did enjoy it more than I had been the ones leading up to last week, and […]

Unexpected was a bit of an understatement. That was, in my not so humble opinion, the best episode of Heroes yet. I’m sure my neighbors, as well as a good portion of the county, heard my exclamations at each successive plot twist, culminating in my ranting at the television when the episode ended […]

Can you spot the oxymoron here? WiiBot: How to build a sword-wielding, tennis-playing, WiiMote-controlled, friendly robot What, precisely, is friendly about a robot wielding a sword? Take a look at the picture at the top of that page. Does that look particularly friendly to you? It looks to me like […]

Tonight, since I didn’t really feel up to any form of online play, I ducked both City of Heroes and the Xbox to sit down with a movie and paint the miniature I use for Randall, my cleric in the Soen campaign. A long, long time ago, I used to collect and paint miniatures, […]

And tonight, on a special Valentine’s Day Lost …
Ok, just kidding. Apologies to any of you who read this before seeing the episode and had an aneurism. I think, after tonight, I owe the writers of Lost an apology. I’m man enough to admit it, I was wrong. You guys clearly […]

I was in need of movies this weekend, so I picked some up. Rental, mercifully, or I’d be sick with the buyer’s remose (and keep in mind I own Boa vs. Python on DVD). I had a hankering for cryptozoology, and I’ve not seen enough movies about the chupacabra, so I wound up […]

We’ve got another slow-burn episode, gradually drawing our heroes and villains togetherfor what promises to be a great finale a few episodes down the pipe. Aside from one superpower reveal, there’s nothing really spectacular going on this time. The episode is solid, however, and is drawing still more connections.
Spoilers follow:

Yesterday we got together with Chad, Lizzi, and Chad’s nephews for our second session in the Scourge of the Howling Horde adventure. Brianna and I, having come from the Watonga cheese outlet, were quite pleased to be providing cheese, buffalo summer sausage, and crackers for snacks. Once were were suitably supplied with snacks, […]
