The 12 Days of Finals: Day 3

Supplies are fine. Main enemy - the Web Site Project - not engaged today. GOOD. Sleep... 2 attempts at naps, 2 failures. I had hoped to spend time at Team Trivia this evening, as 'downtime', but could not get enough to field a team again. Since I probably won't be there next Tuesday, it will be 4 out … Continue reading The 12 Days of Finals: Day 3

“Night Walk”: Night Shift

This short Walk isn't because I can't fall asleep; it's because I actually cannot go to sleep. I'm at work. 😉 One of my jobs is monitoring interstate traffic for a division of Northrup Grumman in Louisville, on weekends, 3rd shift. Included in that process is seeing the runs that LMPD officers are on. Some … Continue reading “Night Walk”: Night Shift

Nintendo Nostalgia II, Part 2

We continue with my list of Favorite Nintendo Games: 6. "Beetle Adventure Racing" (N64) - If "1080 Snowboarding" was the biggest surprise on this list, then this is a very close 2nd. The only cars you could take were Beetles (with differently adjusted stats) but that didn't take away from the overall fun of this … Continue reading Nintendo Nostalgia II, Part 2

Nintendo Nostalgia II, Part 1

Last week, I co-recorded a podcast episode for "Podicus Wrecks" (look us up on the "Comicdom Wrecks" page!), reminiscing about old favorites on the various Nintendo platforms. I got to thinking: what are my all-time favorite Nintendo games? After some rummaging around in the memory banks- a lot of it, in some cases-  I've come up with … Continue reading Nintendo Nostalgia II, Part 1

“Night Walk”

A Night Walk is not a good idea, right now. There's the whole "not particularly safe" clause. And the foot issues. Instead, since it about 1:25 AM EST, and I can't fall asleep, a mental "Night Walk" will have to suffice. The sleep issue goes back a while. I sometimes have nights where the mind … Continue reading “Night Walk”

Review: “Darkest Dungeon”, Pt. 3:

A change to this blog: I'm removing the "Heroes" section from part 2 and adding it to this part. In the final part of the 'Darkest Dungeon' review, I'm going to take a look at the Hero Classes. There are 15 classes, with each class having 7 main stats to keep track of: Resolve: the resistance level to … Continue reading Review: “Darkest Dungeon”, Pt. 3:

Podicus Wrecks #15 – On the Path of the Beam Part 1 – The Gunslinger

The first of 7 (or more) parts of Podicus Wrecks's discussion on Stephen King's "The Dark Tower" series. Glad to be a guest on here, talking about my all-time favorite book series!

“Short Circuits”: Throat-Slash! Oh, the HUMANITY!

There are some... odd rules in sports, written and unwritten, regarding celebrations. In baseball, if you hit a Home Run and you do more than a fist pump, chances are that you will get hit with a pitch in your next at bat. The same may happen if you stand and watch the ball go … Continue reading “Short Circuits”: Throat-Slash! Oh, the HUMANITY!
