Saturday : 21 October 2006
Today’s been rather lazy. After staying up far too late, I slept in longer than I had planned. Much later.

While figuring out what to do with myself, I got a message from saying that a few people were getting together for lunch with our friend, Matt, who is in town for the weekend. I observed the requisite hygiene rituals and met everyone at Cafè Med. Lunch was good, as was the company.

I came home and decided to wander around Paragon City for a bit. I was on a team that was hunting Giant Monsters (part of the Hallowe’en event). We were after Eochai (1, 2) and Jack in Irons (1, 2, 3). We had to defeat Eochai ten times before Jack spawned. That’s a lot of fighting. A lot. In fact, we were one of two full teams who went all 5th Ward on him. But, we got him. And then, there was Jack. That big club he carries? It’s not just for show. I saw him tee off on someone on the other team; he was swinging for the fences. In the end, we beat him, too. Then I led a team on a few missions on Peregrine Island and off-world.

Breakfast. It was different without Melody there. Tonight’s group consisted of only four people. The people-watching was only so-so… with one exception: I saw a customer with a yellow… something (feathers, a boa or the like)… in her hair. My immediate first thought was of Copacabana.

Stray Toasters

  • I need to run by the local Macey’s to see if they carry one of the kinds of cotton candy that I like. A coworker said that he found some at a Macey’s in Happy Valley Utah County; I need to see if SL County is similarly enlightened.
  • A couple of things for : Paul Dini/Dan Didio Press Conference (about Batman) and this page from Justice #8
  • Even as the time is ticking down, I’m still undecided about heading to Moab. I may just hang it until next weekend.
  • : I’ll take the blame for this…
    Quis stultus puto is videas haud sapiens vir habetur ops causa absentis
  • Can Rosa Parks Sell Pickup Trucks?
  • This goes a long way to explaining why there was always cat fur on the cushion of my computer chair…
  • In light of last week’s “What would Jesus do for a Klondike Bar?” question, the following question came to me this afternoon: What videogame(s ) would Jesus play?
  • Good or Bad? Frank Tieri Talks Juggernaut… or as they referred to him a couple of times in this interview: “Huggernaut”
  • “Maureen! I totally almost killed you!”
    “You couldn’t almost kill me, even if I were already almost dead.”
    “What are… wait… What?”

Namaste.
