…And it is written (by the Post Office) that the new Infinity starter-set will arrive today! Yes. My Postie rules. He looks a bit like the Dwarf from LotR. I mean that in a very nice way.

Unless I have to sign for something I will just try to door, knock and shout, put stuff on the bench, and close the door on his way out. It can take me a few minutes to get downstairs if I am feeling a bit unsteady and a few times I have missed items by the time I get to the door.

Nothing worse than knowing your new models are just 3/4 mile away and I have to wait until tomorrow. NO!

If the Puggies are asleep in the cage, in the kitchen, I lock the kitchen door, but he will wait to see if I knock on the window. I appreciate that.

@mage – is this the new GW monster-fluid range? Not very ‘Chaos’! 500pts. Is it a BDSM MLP?

I do like the sword and head on that Marine. That is a very calming ‘blue’.

People who play RPG’s can be arseholes of cosmic proportions. Why would you not know what you are supposed to know? It’s fine…a GM/DM can suspend time while he reads up on what his character do. However, a good GM might drop a piano on him as a failed spell or just let the monster rearrange his organs.

@limburger – not really. They had some CGIish aliens in Enterprise on a regular basis. Blue skin just isn’t trying hard enough. That was fine in original Trek as it was the 1960’s! B5 tried a bit harder and they were using an Amiga computer for their effects.

Are you trying to tell me that if had a Holodeck you would not be in there using the programme where you go to the strip-car wash featuring Dita Von Teese (leave the bra on), Sophie Ellis-Bextor, and Hailey Williams, at least twice a day? Oh, that is my programme…

That is all it would be used for. Picard acting out his flogging fantasies on a sailing ship of old is bollocks. Worf had some good training programmes, but he is Klingon. If you walked in there after Wesley Crusher the floor would be like an explosion in a Yoghurt factory! Don’t shake his hand either.

All stories are the same now. There are no new themes and it has all been done and done so much better. Revenge, love, greed, murder, fear/horror, sex, and that’s it really. Every ‘Western’ is just a Samurai folk tale. Sci-fi is just a soap opera in space and most have a very similar story type to the ‘western’.

If you read a few Shakespear plays you have read it all. If you have seen any 2 Gangster movies then you have seen them all. “I knew it was you, Frankie!” “Hey, forget about it.” What did I miss out?

@doctorether – Star Trek: TNG, and after, just took scripts that arrived through the post! You can’t do that. That is why all episodes of TNG, DS9, Voyager, etc, have no consistent plot or story. They are mostly ‘random’. I dislike that word too, but you know what I mean. B5 had one writer.

He might have previously wrote episodes of ‘He-Man’ and ‘Murder She Wrote’, but it was his idea and he had a story arc ready to go. The start was just to get the background established, but once they started with the Shadows and the civil war it was outstanding.

Ten years! 500pts. Good one. This will be our 29th year married and 31st year together. Your wife is a very beautiful young lady. Heather loves the dress and her hair. Redheads rule.

Fantastic pictures. 10000pts. Not sure about your booties! Thanks for showing them off. The background is stunning.

Cool earrings!

The ‘Wreath of Barbs’ is not really my thing, but I do love the background. I really love feedback and synth feedback loops. I can ‘see’ what it sounds like…Heather says it’s the autism!

That reminds me of something I was listening to. ‘Crawling Chaos’ by Autism. Not bad. A sort of goth/metal narrative.

You need to try some Bauhaus, Christian Death, Alien Sex Fiend, Flesh for Lulu, Sex Gang Children, Dead Can Dance, Klaus Schultz, Evereve, Nico (good ‘mood’ music), Shriekback, Iron Butterfly, Symphony X, Schwarze Bewegung, and Kontrast. I could go on, but I would he here all morning!
