I had a ‘Clix tourney yesterday afternoon. I tied (2-1) with another player, but he KO’ed more figures – higher total points – so he won the day. I took the Fellowship prize, so I got a Sue Storm Limited Edition figure. Not bad.
After the game, I had dinner with SaraRules before heading off to Chris’ for the first Dark Heresy game I’ve been to in… probably a month to a month-and-a-half. Back home… to find that SaraRules wasn’t feeling well. We decided not to go to breakfast and called it an early night.
This morning, we got up and watched football. SaraRules fixed breakfast while we flipped back and forth between the early games. After the first group of games, we headed to the Garden of Sweden – she wanted something for her office and I wanted to look at some new desk and bookcase options. After that (and lunch), we went to the Utah State Fair – Attractions. Exhibits. Food. Livestock. People on parade. Rides. The usual. And cotton candy. Sweet, sweet cotton candy.
Back home for the late game and then over to SaraRules’ parents’ for a bit.
All-in-all, it’s been a good weekend. Can’t really ask for more than that.
Stray Toasters
- I saw this shortly after waking up this morning; I think that this is my new favorite Sinfest cartoon.
- We watched The Running Man tonight. I haven’t seen that in many, many rains. And it’s so ripe for being MST3K’ed, too. And we did.
- DIsk Inventory X
- I showed Logan, SaraRules’ younger brother, a picture of the Burger King mascot from when I was a kid. I do believe that he found it just about as creepy as the current mascot, if not more so.
- By way of BoingBoing.net: Sarah Palin: Spammer and Digital Secrecy Scofflaw
, did you find a copy of Watchmen? - From the “Whiskey Tango Foxtrot” file: Mom accused of stealing daughter’s identity to attend highschool and become a cheerleader
- The new Bill Gates/Jerry Seinfeld ads are… something.
(And “good” isn’t the word I’m looking for.)
Namaste.

What you don’t like the new MS commercials?
I’ve only seen one…pretty funny.
I suppose they could have created a stripped down commercial full of half lies and mistruths….but apple already did that. 🙂 🙂
