Happy 30th, D&D
First off....Scott Bolton: woofy leather dude vocalist from Vancouver with a hot biker handlebar 'stache. Mmmm...I'm a fan. Catchy tunes too!
Apparently everyone but me got the press release about the D&D 30th Anniversary this weekend. Regardless, the geek gang honored the anniversary in style with lots of cookies and carbs and cola and very little actual gaming. It's not about the fantasy role-playing, stupid. Can you hand me my chainmail brassiere, please?
I can barely remember playing my first character, a pre-generated Dragonlance character for the initial modules that inspired the books, back when I was a freshmen in high school in like 1985. I think I played Riverwind, Goldmoon's husband. The first character I created was a 1/2 elf druid of Ehlonna. Before that, me and a friend would play the self-guided Tunnels and Trolls game as well. After that, I became a DM due to my awesome facilitating skills. OLD SKOOL baby, OLD SKOOL.
After D&D a few of us hung out to watch the follow-up show from the FarScape series: The Peacekeeper Wars. We love Farscape for the muppets, the awesome makeup, the great writing, and for Ben Browder, the HOTTEST leading stud of any sci-fi series to date. Tonight will be part II of the Peaceeeper Wars.
Uh oh! Hot guys on TV scheduling conflict tonight! The Nuts for Mutts competition will be on Animal Planet at 8, featuring Survivor's Colby Donaldson as a judge. Woof.

Hey Jimbo- Ben Browder or Scott Bolton- if you had to choose, which one?

Oh jeez...that's a toughie. If both were equally gay...would I choose kinky-looking Scott who could sing to me, or gravelly-voiced and dreamy eyed Ben? At this moment I'd have to choose Scott.

My first D&D character was a premade thief my friends had, which I lovingly named 'Hamburglar' much to the chagrin of serious gamers. Unfortunately, there were no hamburgers, until my friend introduced the town mayor, 'Mayor McCheese', I was supposed to kill him and eat his head, but I died.
I decided D&D wasn't the tabletop game for me, but it was my introduction to role-playing, which has come in handy, and ironically, made getting laid a lot easier, and more fun.
