  • Five and Dimes for 2006

  • Tampa Recap (late post)

    I just wrapped up a 4-day stay with Karl (my uncle) in Tampa. We were hoping to get in a Shuttle launch on Sunday, but a lack of tickets and reschedule due to weather killed that idea. Instead, we spent most of the time eating good food (Cuban & seafood) and playing some games.

  • Game Review: Twilight Struggle

    March has seen a dry spell in my gaming activity. After four straight months of 25+ games played, I've only managed to get in 12 games so far, with only tonight's Lumbersmiths Friday Night Gaming to save me. But what lacked in quantity was made up for...
