Yesterday morning, I slept in… a little. Until about 8:30. I woke up when SaraRules got ready to head to her quilting club. I needed to get up then because I needed to get a team or two together for a ‘Clix tournament. I came up with a couple of ideas… none of which I wound up using. Instead I went with:
- Batman
- Captain America
- Elektra (Skrull)
- Merlyn
- Psycho-Pirate and
- Susan Richards (Skrull)
It was a good team, but I wound up going 1-2. One guy (not Chris, who had to work yesterday) went 3-0; I think that there was one 2-1 and three of us went 1-2. I liked the overall balance of the team and wound up loosing both matches on points. I also reaffirmed that I am not fond of the prison map – I am getting better need to play on it, but I need more practice with it.
I got home to find that my Kilowog figure had arrived. If it had gotten there earlier, I might have tried an even different team. Who knows? The Shadow knows…
After lunch at Hopper’s, SaraRules and I headed to visit Perry and the kids; Kate was at work. Back home for a bit and then off to breakfast. We tried a new location this week and it was a nice change of pace.
Today started off slowly. I actually managed to sleep in until a little after 9:00. Then it was time for breakfast and coffee… and EPSN’s football pregame show. And then… football. It was a good (2 for 3) day:
- The Ravens lost to the (then) 4-0 Titans.
- The Dolphins won over Sandy Eggo… and looked good doing it, too!
- The Panthers beat the KC Chiefs.
Tonight, after dinner, we’re heading over to Chris and Mary’s for horror movie night.

- Who would win: An Imperial Star Destroyer or the USS Enterprise?
- The OS that wouldn’t die: Windows XP Gets Another Six Months to Live
- Huh. I guess that’s it for the ‘Toasters.
Namaste.
