My boss called to tell me that Gary Gygax died this morning. I was kind of broken up which was hard to explain. I mean, not hard to explain exactly. I just had to apologize, "I'm sorry, I wouldn't have expected me to react like this either." Which, actually, maybe we should have. I am not exactly steel in the face of sad news.

Slightly amused by AOL news' D&D-for-the-layperson reporting. Quotes follow--

"The game known for its oddly shaped dice became a hit."

and

"Dungeons & Dragons players create fictional characters and carry out their adventures with the help of complicated rules."

Yep.

Kim, I wish I were with you so we could make a proper toast with our Mountain Dew.
