This article totally made my morning.  And I completely agree with the sentiment found therein.  Well done, Balmore.  (Note: some salty language.)

Trinity.
So, I’m talking with a fellow Clash-fan this weekend, and he asked me my Top 3 tracks from London Calling.  I completely froze up.  My brain couldn’t process it.  I had never really given it close consideration before. Eventually, I was able to sputter and piece together three songs.  But, I didn’t feel like I truly answered the call.  Then, on my walk home, one of my favorite...

Yo, Joe.
If you haven’t seen it already, I highly suggest you check out the new GI JOE: RESOLUTE videos on Adult Swim.  They’re written by Warren Ellis — comic scribe extraordinare — and are most likely far better than anything the live action version will try to cook up.

Unsolicited Fiction.
(I decided to follow Frants’ idea.) The surly drunk at the end of the bar yammered on, spitting and cursing to himself.  It was his usual m.o. — wander in around mid-afternoon, get boiled as an owl, rail on about the various people out to get him.  Today, he focused his bile on the memory of ‘Burt’:  “…that bastard left me there, lying up against the...

I've Got A Dungeon Master's Guide.
“I’ve got… a 20-sided die.”  (“d20” via curious_spider) For the past week, I’ve been listening to a Dungeons and Dragons Podcast, where three guys who create web comics play an adventure.  It’s just them a and a DM (who happened to write the Dungeon Masters Guide, 4th Ed.).
