are the Literary References in the Game?

I bring my dijeridu slowly away
from the microphone while I'm playing so that it "fades"
while the drummers continue with their beat.

of certain religious orders) barefoot or wearing only sandals.

- Hedwig And The Angry Inch %}

I want a body
like Hedwig's body, without
the angry inch, though.

"Hello! My daughter asked me to write you about Fluxx
auf Deutsch that you mentioned was on the stove. She is in high
school, and she and her friends play Fluxx during breaks in quiz
bowl competitions. Most of them also take German, so if this
project comes to fruition, there is a market for at least one
German Fluxx in the U.S. I just bought her Chrononauts, and she
is so excited. Thanks for making stuff that allow
me to spoil the daylights out of her, while making her think." -- John L via email

Spring Cleaning |
|
|
 My
focus this week has been on doing some much needed spring cleaning.
The house was positively choked with boxes and piles of stuff
needing to be put away, with a big part of the problem being
no spaces left in which to put things away. But I figured out
a couple of new places to shoehorn in a few more bookcases, and
after a trip to IKEA and a bit of assembly, I got enough extra
space to get a lot of those piles and boxes dealt with and put
away. Check out these before and after pictures to see how big
an improvement an extra set of shelves can make!
Now I just need to start getting ready for this weekend's
Pop-Tart Cafe!

Alison observed that the year 2000,
once the ultimate in imagined futures, is now, like, a really
long time ago! (At least in terms of pizza coupons...) |

Oops! There's a minor mistake in NanoBlanks...
the example card that you can see through the clear plastic wrap,
one of the 4 Character cards in the pack, has an upside-down
cardback! Oh, well, I can't see how it will really impact gameplay... |

Remember that Iraqi
leader who would hold a press conference every day at noon
to deny that US troops were succeeding in their invasion of his
country? I've already forgotten his name, but with tanks at Baghdad's
gates, he continued to tell absurd and obvious lies, in a desperate
attempt to keep his power base from crumbling. I think of that
guy whenever I hear the Drug Czar make a speech about marijuana. |
