Paul's Pantulog Birthday Party last night was fun!

Sadly, I was pretty horrible at securing booze, so I wasn't able to get drunk.

However, I think I still effed-up answering Zuri's phone. This is why you shouldn't try to make me do other stuff when I'm playing my DS. :P

Sorry Zuri!

Read his CNN Obituary here.

As a roleplayer and a gamer, I owe much to Mr. Gygax and his creation - the original satanist recruitment device itself, Dungeons and Dragons. I wouldn't be running games with vampires, werewolves, mages, samurai, ninja, and priests every week, nor would I have spent that dark period in 2003 addicted to Ragnarok...

Hope you get a 20 on your reincarnation roll.
