Badger Posted October 5, 2018 Report Share Posted October 5, 2018 3 hours ago, assault said: Actually, reality is starting to look like the Marvel Universe. A Valkyrie's sword has been discovered. Elon Musk could, potentially, lose control of SpaceX, leading to him making a desperate private flight, along with his musician partner, a professional astronaut and a random hanger own/family member. Bavaria is engaging in Mad Science. No doubt there is someone in armour and an iron mask behind it. All we need are breakthroughs in military exoskeleton technology, shrinking, and a Big Green Monster. Except Elon Musk would have to be a Lex Luthor type villain (wait Mr Fantastic had his evil moments in a certain storyline didn't he? Moving on) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eight-year-old Swedish-American girl pulls pre-Viking era sword from lake Does anyone else remember about a year ago I think it was, a little Welsh girl turned up an ancient sword while swimming in what local legend held to be THE lake that Arthur's sword had been flung into? Now if in the next year or so we get a girl in Japan finding a katana in a lake, or some girl turning up an ancient Roman or Greek sword in the Mediterranean region somewhere.....

Cancer Posted October 5, 2018 Report Share Posted October 5, 2018 Chronology of events for the volcanic episode in Hawaii April-October 2018 Kind of reverse chronology order (first days are at the back pages of the file, but events within each day are more or less in chronological order). Could be quite useful for game purposes in setting up a sequence of events for a campaign episode. EDIT: Some graphics to go with that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

assault Posted October 6, 2018 Report Share Posted October 6, 2018 It's raining where I live. This is rare. If it keeps raining much more, it will (flash) flood. Also, I killed a Redback Spider. (Like a Black Widow, only Australian.) Most kinds of spiders are friends, but Redbacks aren't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
