Blood Stained Clothing Arrives at Camp

The thing is, that unlike our blogging soldiers, the Adventuring Party as they are called in the gaming world, are not members of the military nor are they the police department.... In the case of myself- as a player, and my son, most of the time, the adventurers are working in cahoots with the... Sign in to see full entry.

Iraq & Afghanistan & Dungeons & Dragons

Let's face it; this follows on from the facts versus consciousness debate. Now, I never even got past the first degree brown belt in my martial arts training, and that's the most personal violence I've ever experienced in physical factual life - sparring with others in a dojo.

Ralph Waldo Emerson, John Domont, 2 Women Named Shari Etc.

This really is mainly about the latest book summary. What is most surprising about Emerson's body of works is the large number of essays dedicated to delineating the true nature of the English.

She gave a free public lecture at the Writers Center of Indianapolis...I liked it...One of her books of poetry has tthe artwork of a man named John Domont - its nice artwork. The added bonus is...

B&N Interviews, Sapphire McCullagh and Other Tidbits

One minute I'm Our Lady of Perfectionism; it seems the next I'm whipping out my Artistic License and making things up to fill in any gaps in information with whatever feels right in the moment. Hang on...Lets see if I can copy you folks some real connections here...Most of what is coming is thanks... Sign in to see full entry.

Ralph Waldo Emerson, Twitter and the BookRags Saga

Fortunately, even in this economy get to write another book summary. As explained yesterday, this is kind of a big deal as it took about 3 years just to gain access to this work.
