I've Got to Save the World... of Warcraft



Yeah, I took the plunge on a lark. Now I'm a 10th level Dwarven Warrior named "Thurgood."



This is not actually my guy. My guy has a samurai top-knot and a red beard. My guy uses an axe, too.

So your next questions may be:
  1. How much time have you spent on this game so far?
  2. Are you on a pvp server or one of those wussie "role-playing" servers?
  3. Which of those wussie "role-playing" servers are you on?

And my answers would be:

  1. Nunya.
  2. Sigh. You got me. I'm on a role-playing server, but my reason is simple: I don't want to be schooled by a 10-yr-old kid, or a naked fatman calling himself Princess Starlightta.
  3. I'm on the Fast Riders server. At least, that's what I think it's called.

Happy New Year. BCNU.

Pro-Evo Two Years Later

Okay, maybe not exactly two years; it's been more like one year and almost 11 months, but hey-ho-let's-go...

So, nearly two years later, and my original post is still getting comments. I can't figure out what our common denominator is--most likely a marketer's email list. Unfortunately, I no longer have my copy as I loaned it to a student who never gave it back. For that matter, I also loaned him some Ayn Rand nonsense that I DO NOT WANT BACK, so I guess it all comes clean in the wash.

Hey, are any you all who keep receiving this stuff on either the Randroids' or the Scientologists' mailing lists?

Humor at the Expense of my Alma Mater

If you don't follow college foosball, then you might not know that the University of Alabama is supposed to be going to the Weedeater Bowl in Shreveport, or something like that. Not that we deserved going to anything better than the Tidy Bowl, mind you. Nonetheless, someone with a good sense of humor and too much money on his hands erected a billboard that says, "Rolled," and has the score of the Alabama-Lousiana Monroe game. This billboard is right next to the stadium where doubtless it will be seen by many a Bama fan. I hope it fires up the team to win this one.

However, the billboard may be all for nought! There is the strong possibility that Alabama will not be able to get to the bowl game in Shreveport. Yes, apparently the Tide's busses can't get past Monroe either.

Ave Ursa. Roll damned Tide.
