Two of my friends, bryant and michele_blue, are joining a walk in Boston to raise awareness and money for suicide prevention. You can learn more about what they are doing, and why, in Bryant's LiveJournal post. All money they collect will go to the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention. Every little bit helps.

Help them out, if you can.

I've been ever so busy! Where to start? How 'bout I just ramble for a page ( Read more... )

Alexander Cherry, author of the fabulous game Fastlane (it's like snorting cocaine off the back of a hooker while driving 130 mph in your Ferrari across the desert on I-40), is recovering from brain surgery (awesome scars, too). He has to deal with some annoying, mild cancer treatment to boot. Instead of going to GenCon as he'd planned, he's paying ( Read more... )

Seen in gobi's blog:

Alexander Cherry, creator of Fastlane and a generally cool member of the gaming community, just had friggin' BRAIN SURGERY. He's recovering very well, but the medical expenses will make a trip to GenCon Indy this year somewhat prohibitive. Let's pitch in and help him out!

We agreed to meet for dinner to get to know one another better. It was just she and I. ( Read more... )

I haven't posted anything in a while, let alone a life update. Here's what's going on in the world of Adam.

VacationI took two weeks of vacation over the holidays. I like to take two weeks in a row. It takes me a week to really unwind, then I get a week to relax. It's my annual "reboot." I didn't go anywhere or do anything huge. I relaxed. It was ( Read more... )

Oh crap. I talked ross_winn out of writing his RPG.net column. That wasn't at all my intention when I gently poked him.

You see, I knew he wrote a regular gaming column and I think he got a lot of "comp" copies of games to review in his column. But he also told me that he really didn't play any more. I don't know if he sat down for a single full session ( Read more... )

Happy birthday, jessypi!

Two users, allamistaka and the_b0rg, have friended me. English is not their first language, it seems (it appears that German and Portuguese are, respectively), so they can understand my LJ but I can't really understand most of theirs. Welcome to my blog, even if I'm too language-ignorant to friend you back. Don't worry, I rarely post friends-only stuff anyway so you' ( Read more... )
