NO! WE'RE OUTTA BEAR CLAWS!
This morning, I started thinking about an old collection of short stories that I read when I was much, much younger, around the 2nd and 3rd grade or so. The anthology revolved around lycanthropy and was aptly (and simply) titled "Werewolves". The stories ranged from the dull to the interesting, and on several occasions in my life, I've attempted to track down said anthology, but to no avail: Either it's out of print (which is entirely possible given the age and deterioration of the copy I had read) or the information I recall was too vague to go off of. That said, I DO remember, in some detail, several of the stories, which I may brain-transcribe and post on here, once every so often. Four of them stick out clearly in my mind, and I'll try and reproduce them as accurately as possible. Of course, I'll be relating the stories as a third-person storyteller describing a sequence of events, and so I may lack the finer details (names, physical descriptions, etc.). What I can remember, I will reproduce, if anyone is interested.

I'm working on updating all my comic archives so I can burn that whole folder and (hopefully) free up another few gigs. I just got all the updates for Naruto since The Pirate Bay stopped putting the files up for whatever reason. The ones I'd been missing encompassed the final Sasuke vs. Itatchi fight and all I can say is, that's going to be awesome when they animate it...

This was on 60 minutes, and was pretty cool: A documentary about an individual who has PERFECT memory recall of his past. This is one of two guys that was featured on 60 Minutes: They remember each and every day of their lives perfectly. So far, they haven't posted a release date on the film, but it's currently in production.

I'm pretty jazzed up about my wizard for Pat's game. This second incarnation is much better than the first one I'd come up with we had that level drop at the last minute (resulting in the character being scrapped), and has quite a few handy tricks up his sleeve. He even is starting to get a personality, though I dunno how long he'll exist to develop it... If we have a delay on Thursday (for Bri to make a character or what have you), I'd like to RP an encounter to get at least one servant before the campaign technically "starts", and power-level him up to at least 6th or 7th level. I can always improvise as we go along, but I'd just as soon do it beforehand to save a lot of in-game hassle.

I'm also puttering along on my own campaign that I can run whenever Pat ends his, though it'll take me a little while to get all the monsters and whatnot done.

EDIT: Some new stuff. Apparently Cable & Deadpool is officially over as of issue 50 (this month). Cable will be returning to his own Cable comics, and Deadpool will be returning this summer in Marvel Comics Presents: Deadpool. HAIL HYDRA!

Also, apparently there will be a crossover between The Authority and Teen Titans? It was previewed in issue 5 of Freddy vs. Jason vs. Ash, and the sub-series is being called Dreamwar: A crossover between the DC and Wildstorm universes. Here's an article about it. Dunno when it's coming out, though.

Meghann wanted anyone willing to raise awareness about this to do so: A film adaptation of Myst in the works. Here's an article and a blog dealing with the film's progress. I only ever played (seriously) the first game, and even that I beat with the help of a walkthrough book. I played the ridiculous 5-disk set that was Riven, and I blame that game (and others like it) for making me wary of puzzle games. That said, the books weren't bad (I've got the first three, only two of which I've read, and a long time ago at that). The back plot/setting is pretty cool: A lost civilization of people who could create and seal away entire worlds in books through ancient wordcraft. I remember the first book or two made me glee with fantasy joy. I might go back and read those again some time soon...

Alley just faceplanted into my knee after she fell asleep trying to keep her head up. :( Poor little angel.
