"I don't have that problem. My only (real) need is to focus up close. But I'm good at finding the goodwife's glasses when she loses them."
When my son was a toddler, he could spot an ant a block away but would trip over a toy at his feet. He was in glasses from age two to 20, when his vision corrected itself.
You're kind. I try.
Did have, but actually, it was a VERY long campaign, ( 10+ years real time)
and if you do the math, those three gentlmen actually spent time on the planet in concurrance... Remember, TR was Sec of the Navy before he was President... and Clemens didn't die until right before WWI! ( I think!) I've messed around with history so much in that campaign that I occasionally get confused.
I'm on my way to bed kids. Play nice and keep the demon Dim at bay.
I unfortunately HAVE to.
*chuckle*
I pay..dearly and often.
Especially when she does the Bonzai Bash leap straight into my gut in the middle of the night.
Pinkey and the Brain is a very TWISTEd funny cartoon, about an abnormally intelligent, genetically modified Lab Mouse who wants to "Take Over the World"!
His side-kick Pinky, haas a cockney accent, and always sounds like he has the sniffles.
Pinkey is kind-hearted, but alas, insane, and dumb as a post.
Cartoon Network shows them 10 pm weekdays.
Good Night!
The Bonzai sounds dangerous:)
8-O!!!
The Twin Orbs of Power, the insidious power that women have over men.
Alternately called The Chest Beam in the Dimensional Doors thread, it is used exclusively as a ranged attack against men.
Beware, when stuck in a tree and dangling by only your hands, the ORBS of POWER are very effective at getting men OUT of trees..
One glimmer of their power, and it's gravity time for said man.
(Not that I have experienced such..)
Grovelling is recommended.
(No, I don't know how to effectively grovel either! I got all kinds of odd advice from the female friends I asked! Most likely tailored to gets me slapped or worse..)
The post was totally fabricated!
It was a complete fabrication!
* said in Melanie Griffith voice.
Orbs of Power vs Men....
Sort of like Can of Tuna vs Cat?
Both good for getting the subject out of a tree?
Fairly, she lands in the middle of my gut and then daintily walks away.
She's a Diva Cat..
A Valkyrie she probably is.
She obviously knows how to get your attention!
Well, when confronted with the irresistable power of the orbs, men tend to let go of the branch above and put hands outward as if to grab.. forgetting they're suspended in air by those same hands.
And Gravity takes care of the rest.
If she's not landing, she nipping the achilles tendon on the back of mey leg and then triolling.
(She doesn't meow. Dunno why.)
Pinky, if I could reach you, I would hurt you.
(from the episode where Brain is on stilts posing as a cowboy Country-Western singer so he can take over the world by placing subliminal messages in his music)
Bubba Bo-Bob Brain!
A favorite!
They were all alive at the same time in the late 1800s. I'm just surprised because most D&D campaigns seem to be set in the Middle Ages or an alternate universe time-frame. I *did* sometimes allow time-portals to the 20th century, though--that way I could allow superheroes from my Marvel rpg to enter the game :)
"(She doesn't meow. Dunno why.)"
She obviously doesn't have to:)
This was an off-shoot of the weird Call of Cthulhu thing i did....
STARTED at the Chicago World's Fair, continued until the end of the First World War.
Had a hiatus. ( I got tired of always having to run and to cook for everybody...)
THEN there was the Chicago, Capone, Mars Gun-and Hootch Running part.
