MY RATING: 9.99

Playing country western music that makes fun of country western music... Most people don't get it though. www.myspace.com/stumblebums. Used to play in some kind of hybrid punk/grind/noise band that everyone hated www.leagueofstruggle.com

You remember those poorly dubbed Italian zombie movies you used to rent from the mom n' pop video stores? The ones you'd grit your teeth through and sometimes watch them halfway through before declaring that it stinks and returning it? Those are the movies I love. Those and the Italian Road Warrior rip offs like Endgame, Bronx Warriors: 1990, Texas Gladiators 2020. The real high brow, cerebral, and pretentious stuff. I play wargames in about the same style. Television? Twin Peaks, The Prisoner, The Avengers... Nothing really in current syndication besides that Lost show sometimes. I also watch far too much Mystery Science Theater 3000 to be considered healthy.

I used to be all high and mighty and superior about listening to punk rock like GBH, UK Subs, Black Flag, Crass and then I started listening to the Minutemen and Firehose and chilled out with my pompous leather jacket wearing arse. Now I listen to whatever the hell I like but it's still mostly crap like 7000 Dying Rats, Agent Orange, Kylesa, Los Infernos, but I'm not such a prick about other people's musical tastes anymore.

David Gerrold's War Against the Chtorr series, Samuel R. Delany's Dhalgren, John Steakley's Armor and Vampire$, rulebooks for games I'll never even play

Texas in the Dallas/Ft. Worth mid-cities

I played Magic: The Cashcow when it came out but quit when... was it Legends? that overpowered expansion came out. Played Jyhad before it was the Eternal Struggle. Got most of the cards in giant bricks for like a dolllar when the hobby shops were clearing them out. Don't really play them anymore.

Is it bad that I know nothing about Dungeons and Dragon 3.0, 3.5, 4.0, 4.1? I played 1st edition even when 2nd edition was out cause I liked my monks and assassins. Don't have much time to game anymore but I enjoy The Burning Wheel, Dogs in the Vineyard, FUDGE: The Collectors, and other games no one plays. I finally got my copy of Aftermath! returned after like 15 years and it indeed should be called Calculus! What were they thinking?

I played three times in a vampire LARP. When the storyteller produced an idea of cats that shot lightning out of their butts and the entire Camarilla switched to Sabbat between session sans myself and like four other players I quit and decided to go play bad music instead.

Ah, every Friday I get drunk on beer and Bloody Caesars and we play something. Sometimes it's the loosest game of 40K in the world, sometimes Fantastic Worlds sci-fi pulp, Ultimate Warzone, Baptism by Fire 1st edition WWII, I have a real soft spot for Astounding Tales! 2nd edition and use it for just about everything I can dream up. 5150 by Two Hour Wargames also sees some action occasionally. I spend about 90% of my wargaming time hiding in my study painting figures and building terrain, though.

Space Hulk, Dungeon Quest, Candyland, Chutes and Ladders, Memory, Don't Spill the Beans. I play at lot of the latter boardgames during the week.

Attention whores, seafood, people in general... Ah, I'm just a misanthrope.

I have nothing much to say about myself. I'm a mundane kind of guy that gets drunk on Fridays and plays wargames. The rest of the week I'm trying not to annoy my wife as I cut out cardstock models and paint little toy figures obsessively. A woman wearing striped tights, nylons, stockings, etc. makes me weak in the knees and forgetful of all things in exclusion to that fashion for some reason (blame those pent up angsty teen punk years). I try to not geek culture my two kids too much but I fear it might be too late. I am one poor musician both financially and talent-wise so it's a good thing that being a musician is just another hobby.

Go eat somewhere nice. Have someone nice eat... no wait that sounds wrong on so many levels probably cause it was meant to or somesuch.



I hope your day is indeed as extra special as you are!

Thank you for the birthday wishes! I will indeed try to do all of those things.

Did your MST3K quiz and got all but 2, that gave the old noodle a work out as some of that stuff I saw only once when it was first released.

 I'd love to see some pics of that MST3K scenery got to if ya got any.

Well, it's been over two months since you logged in but Happy Birthday, man. Enjoy your day!!!

 

Thanks for the birthday greeting. I don't see much going on here so I don't log on. It's focus isn't towards the type of gaming I do. I spend most of my time on theminiaturespage.com and the Consimworld social networking group.

Thanks for the B-Day greeting.  I won't be at Skirmish after all.  My wife had booked us at a wedding that weekend that she just told me about a couple days ago so no fun for me.  I will be a Millennium though so if your down there I'll see ya there.

 

Thanks again,

Brian

Those are a bit steep but I guess there is free shipping for orders over 10 pounds so that helps a bit I suppose that's something.  Looks like we'll be hosting games at the same time but if I can get away I'd like to see your game.

Where did you get your "zoners"?  Those look awesome!  Those would make great Weird War II Bio-Weapons.

Brian

Ps

Are you guys going up to Skirmesh in July?
