Blue

Oh good!  I thought I'd missed the 5:15 lab to downtown.

About to start a superhero RPG as a player and one of the other guys in the group used to play CoH with me, so we were getting nostalgic via email.  I finally broke down and did the download and signed up, thinking "I'll just go in, play with the costume designer, make a hero for my upcoming game, and that's it."  And 3 hours and many levels later I logged off.
 
I forgot what an incredible time sink this game is.  I will have to use it sparingly.

Well, let's see... Family check...
 
Mom and Step-dad are in the high risk group but both are retired.  Except for step-dad's obsessive need to grocery shop (even when there's no apocalypse) he won't contact nearly anyone.
 
Cousin and his girlfriend... My cousin is still working at his golf course, not sure why that's open, guess it's not a contact enough sport.  His girlfriend had her restaurant fold.  Not close down temporarily, just close for good because of this, so she' unemployed.
 
My brother worked for the same catering company since high school.  So.. 40 years?  Well, they went under.  The apocalypse will not be catered.  His wife is on the east coast with her dad who is high risk.
 
I work for a federal agency that has been mentioned prominently in the president's recent speeches.  I still go to work.  I'm one of the few in the office who has things they have to do in person, while everyone else telecommutes.  I run into maybe two human beings (other employees) during the commute/work/return commute day.
 
So it's the collateral damage, not the virus that's affecting my clan.  Went from 2 retired, five working, to 2 retired, two unemployed, 1 temporarily unemployed, 2 working.
 
I could use the time off but can't do it.

Golden Retriever meets sister for the first time
 

Haven't read the books/played the games, so I had no real exposure.
 
I like Cavil in this.  He's appropriately monosyllabic and intimidating.  If you're that creepy and imposing you should not have to say much to get your point across.  Early episodes felt a little too standard swords-and-sorcery but, as I hoped, they were just building a foundation.  
 
Reading to see if this is a spoiler... no, doesn't feel like it... Last episode needed more Witcher in it, but had some fun fantasy combat tactics.  I'd watch another season.
 
 

Brand new TOOL...
First track released... 10 minutes!  I liked it at first, but now that I've listened to it 8 times I'm all-in.
 
 

I'm not much of a country guy but that was pretty solid.  Especially the guitar solo.

Hey guys, my little brother just got his first Music Video made for his song, "The way she says my name." I'd be real pleased if any of you gave it a view
 
 

I saw that pic on twitter!  The pitbull refused to be adopted without his chihuahua friend so they got adopted together.

January 7th, 2006.  I'm legitimately shocked to have won once, let alone 7 times.

"Halloween" by Helloween
"I am Legend" by White Zombie
"Dragula" by Rob Zombie
"Pet Sematary" by The Ramones
"Black Sabbath" and "Heaven and Hell" by Black Sabbath
"Bark at the Moon" and "Mr. Crowley" by Ozzy Osbourne
 
Actually you're pretty safe with 80% of all Sabbath, Rob Zombie, Ozzy, and Dio songs.

I love Tea, but not herbal tea.  On the other hand I've never met a hot cocoa I didn't like!
 
Haven't been in this thread for a long time so I'm not sure what's been settled.  So let's try this one...
 
Equal intelligence, similar strength, outsized personalities... It's Grond vs Gronk

"Are we too hard" on him.  I can't speak for "us".  Frankly, I hated Wesley Crusher and wanted to hate Wheaton himself, but he's fine.  I'm not someone who follows his twitter account or anything, so maybe there are aspects I haven't seen.

As long as the fish aren't out of Lake Eerie.

Disregard Charlize Theron vs Angelina Jolie?  Well, this question no longer interests me...
