    Step 1: Open your itunes/musicmatch/WinAmp/whatever you use to play MP3s
    Step 2: Put all of your music on random.
    Step 3: Write down the first fifteen songs it plays, no matter how embarrassing.

    I'd say that's a pretty good retrospective...

    "Your Man Jesus seems to me a bit of a son of a bitch when it comes to women," Roland said. "Was He ever married?"
    The corners of Callahan's mouth quirked, "No," he said, "but His girlfriend was a whore."
    "Well," Roland said, "that's a start."

    December 5 - Day of the Ninja
    The new Ninja Burger card game from Steve Jackson Games is now available for purchase, and this announcement just so happens to coincide with the release of the latest supplement to the Ninja Burger RPG, BURGERTECH, and the availability of the new Ninja Burger CD-ROM. So much ninja stuff, so little time. And then it hit me.

    We should have a Day of the Ninja. Forget 'Talk Like a Pirate' Day. This will truly be our chance to show the world what ninja are made of.

    We're going to make Friday, December 5th the Day of the Ninja. Why that Friday? Because it's opening day for the new Tom Cruise movie, The Last Samurai, and everyone knows that ninja will be celebrating the fact that there's only one last samurai left to do away with. And it's Tom Cruise, at that. Stupid Gaijin.

    I want you to help me take over the Internet on that day. LiveJournal posts about ninja. Ninja links on all your websites. Photos of yourself wearing ninja outfits. Whatever. Go Ninja crazy.

    There'll also be contests, giveaways and special features on websites like RPG.net, Gamegrene.com, Fark.com and others. Keep an eye out!

    And most importantly, tell YOUR friends and get them aboard. The more ninja, the merrier. E-mail me to let me know you're aboard, and let me know what you plan to do to help celebrate the Day of the Ninja.

    we'll miss ya...
    I don't want no aggravation
    When my train has left the station
    If you're there or not, I may not even know
    Have a round and remember
    Things we did that weren't so tender
    Let the train blow the whistle when I go

    On my guitar sell tickets
    So someone can finally pick it
    And tell the girls down at the Ritz I said hello
    Tell the gossipers and liars
    I will see them in the fire
    Let the train blow the whistle when I go

    Let her blow, let her blow
    Long and loud and hard and happy
    Let her blow
    No regrets, all my debts will be paid
    When I get laid
    Let her blow, let her blow, let her blow

    You'll be left without excuses
    For the evils and abuses
    Down to today from years and years ago
    And have yourself another toke
    From my basket full of smoke
    And let the train blow the whistle when I go

    Let her blow, let her blow
    Long and loud and hard and happy
    Let her blow
    No regrets, all my debts will be paid
    When I get laid
    Let her blow, let her blow, let her blow

    Consider this...
    You've worked as a policeman your whole life, protecting the innocent, enforcing the law. You retire with honors, then take a job as a security guard, working the metal detector on the ground floor of a skyscraper in order to help pay for your wife's arthritis medication. You're sitting there, on a slow day, reading your newspaper, when a girl walks in wearing a trenchcoat. She issues no demands, no warnings, no "freeze" or "drop your gun." She just tears you in half with a spray of machine-gun fire, then does cartwheels along the walls while killing all your co-workers.

    Somewhere, faintly, you can hear a theater audience cheering.

    Important Life Lesson #574

    "Would you," demanded Dora gravely, "would you say 'tomcat' before the minister?"
    This was a staggerer. Davy was not prepared for such a concrete example of the freedom of speech. But one did not have to be consistent with Dora.
    "Of course not," he admitted sulkily. "'Tomcat' isn't a holy word. I wouldn't mention such an animal before a minister at all."
    "But if you had to?" persisted Dora.
    "I'd call it a Thomas pussy," said Davy.
    "I think 'gentleman cat' would be more polite," reflected Dora.
