Dang, can I please just take ONE trip and not go grey right in the middle of it?

I'm still in Columbus for Origins. Am I the only one?

It's an idea, but it most likely wouldn't work.

Waxed leather armor is lightweight, very durable, very easy to repair, and requires very inexpensive materials to produce. You can make a complete suit for about seventy dollars, including tools. Chain is cheap, too, but maille weaving is exponentially more time intensive and only really protects against a specific kind of damage, that from sharp, slashing weapons.

Plate production requires a minimum investment for tools and workshop space that is totally beyond my means.

I suppose I'll have to think about it, decide what is really important to me.

This has easily been the most momentous day in the history of my people. Today we saw the glorious completion of the Star Wars saga, and it was everything I hoped it would be. Less satisfying though perhaps more potentially exciting, the news from E3 has shown us the dawn of a new era go take a look at the duckies demo, Alfred Molina's...

Sixteen years ago I met the most gentle, tolerant person I have ever known. I grew up with him, and though we weren't brothers through blood (or even of the same species), I grew to love him more dearly than I have ever loved anyone or anything.

Three hours ago he died in my arms.

If our spirits live on after our bodies die, and...

I can't tell you how much I appreciated your comment. Lots of people have nice things to say about the situation, but few people have made comments as insightful and helpful as yours.

I'm sorry you didn't get to know Pav better. I'm sorry the world didn't get to know Pav better; he had a lot to offer it. But I guess we're just not that lucky.

Sorry to hear about your feline friend. I don't know what I'd do without my cats. They make my life so much more tolerable. Guess it will make it easier to go if you decide to get outta Buckeye land.

Life here is good. Been dating a woman in San Francisco and spending a lot more time in the city...

Just in case you weren't feeling immeasurably depressed, I present for your edification my latest poem, tentatively titled It's the Fucking Twenty-Forth of April and It's Fucking Snowing in Fucking Ohio:


The time has come;
give up and grieve.
no one is coming to save you.
this is all you will perceive.
your door is locked for every ever.
even when your prison falls,...

Since my last entry I've encountered the paradigm-shattering phenomenons of Ghost in the Shell, miso soup, Guild Wars, Schlock Mercenary, and mobile computing (my Thinkpad 560e may suck hard, but Rheingold was totally on to something). Anyone care to share some recent discoveries of their own, or clue me in to other wildly significant stuff I've managed to miss?

I didn't even try. I just considered giving up chocolate, and then laughed at myself for days. If I ever hit one hundred pounds, I'll give up eating however I please.
