Bad news for those of,you who like to read absurdly long posts; great news for those of you who do not! Phone is going into the shop tomorrow; don't know how long,it will be there. Last,time,was about three weeks, and I have no reason to assume that this time won't be the same. I have not fallen out of love with you people; I am just offline. Enjoy it fully!

The Hermit “Mark?” Jane Hillsmierer paused in the outline of the door frame around her. She reached for the switch one side of the door. She had learned to distrust the dark. “It’s me, Jane.” “I’m here, Janie.” A lamp cut on, casting a glow on a work table. Mark Hadron sat so she couldn’t see his face. “Why are you sitting in the dark?” She placed her hands in front of her. “What brings you by, Janie?” Mark shifted slightly in the shadow. “The business is closed.” “I think you need to think about reopening it.” Jane stepped forward. “I got a warning from Nobody. Another rip is coming.” “It will have to happen without the Lamplighters.” Mark turn…

Yes, today the USA celebrates beasts with big teeth as it is Fangsgiving, So crocodiles, tigers and sharks are the big beneficiaries of this holiday amongst others. But also the dinosaur carnivores like Allosaurus and Tyrannosaurus Rex And Sabre toothed tigers. Let us not forget them. and in the evening celebrate Vampires as they have Fangs. So for all things with big teeth, celebrate Fangsgiving.

Since the calendar's changed...time to start the new thread. The biggest off-season news to me has been the number of HUGE, long-term deals, despite the fact that they don't pan out that well, when they run deep into a player's 30s. But there've been a lot of em.... On the flip side, the Dodgers designated Trevor Bauer for assignment. It'd be surprising if anyone picks him up before he becomes an unrestricted free agent, in about a week. He's still going to be docked pay for the first 50 games he plays. Figure, then: he may well sign a 1 year contract for the league min...use the year to show he's still got it, and try to position for another …

I'm not sure if gofundmes go against the guidelines/rules of these forums or not, and I'm a mod. If it proves to be so, I'll remove this. But a friend, a wonderful lady, has another friend who is in a bad spot. She asked if I could spread word to others. Bob is a trucker, he suffered a massive heart attack. He's in the CTICU and medical bills are piling up. I never met this guy, don't know him, and the holidays can be lean, but if you are the type to click the link above and give even a dollar to a complete stranger who is in dire times, well, it would be appreciated. Thank you.

You probably know the sound. BEEP!!!! Just one. This time. Yeah, stupid smoke alarm batteries. UGH. Must've missed one earlier. And I have no spare 9V's. Worse...that's just telling me it's time to replace all of them. They're 12 years old. Almost did it over the summer, well...now's the time. And this time, it'll be the 10 year lithium battery types. So...here I am, planning a quick late night trip to Wal Mart, they'll have em, and still be open...only 8:30. And the car won't start. I accidentally left the interior light on for a few hours, but not, I didn't think…

Every once in a while, I'll see a news story that restores my faith in humanity and makes me feel like the powers-that-be haven't given up on this world just yet. This thread is for sharing stories like that.

Just running across the crawl while watching the football game. She always came across as gracious to me. EDIT: Jimmy has been in hospice since February. I'm afraid he's not likely to survive this for long at all.

"...or any nation...conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal...can long endure. ...that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom -- and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth." ~ Abe Lincoln Today, the 19th of Nov (+/- a day), I celebrate one of America’s greatest sons, Abraham Lincoln and his Gettysburg Address. This short speech encapsulates the values he inherited from the Founding Fathers. Earlier this year and for many months afterward, I've been interested in US history in a way I haven't ever been before. I’m still learning, r…

Good day to everyone here at NGD! As some of you may know, I run a website called Embrace Your Geekness and at that website, we have a Hall of Fame. We do a poll every year where we at EYG nominate several items, people, characters, movies etc. and the top vote getters are inducted into the EYG Hall of Fame. This is the EYG Hero Games NGD Award that we do every year (this is the eighth year for this award) How this works: I am looking for nominations from the community of NGD for the best comic book artists or comic book writers of all time. I would ask that you nominate those creators who you think have …

Here is my full write up of the new wing: https://embraceyourgeeknesseyg.com/2023/11/12/eyg-hall-of-fame-cinema-wing/ Throughout the year, I induct worthy nominees into the Embrace Your Geekness Hall of Fame. Whether it be the regular vote on the ballot by the EYG Nation, the Legends nominees, the Comic Issue Wing or special inductees, the EYG Hall of Fame is very active. I decided that it was time to open a new wing of the EYG Hall of Fame. One of the biggest ‘geeks’ that many people have is movies. There are some movies that have made it into the EYG Hall of Fame, but I have always felt like there had not been enough considering how m…
