So you skipped town to LA... That was a bit abrupt. Hopefully your bid-niz gets rolling and you can move back to the fine bay area again.

I also understand the cash for clunkers program is running out of money... In one week. Ooops. I think the House is voting on an emergency increase of funds for the program.

Humanity point for the day:




D>M>
- Cash for clunkers program -
I think this program would work a lot better promoting the US economy if you had to buy Ford, chrysler or GM cars rather than the government promoting foreign cars. This is just enriching foreign companies with US taxpayer dollars. Just a thought.

- Rude, I must have just missed you last night. I was on for a bit. So maybe we can just roll on Sunday.

- Had some pretty good Youtube stuff on Comic-Con 2009 and the hot costumed-hero chicks. Nerd chicks in costumes- just rocks.

- Anyone here knows someone who works in the Pest Control Industry? I'm looking into a product for Termite baits, and want to find some information on my competitors prices and stuff. It would really help if anyone knows, especially on Sentricon (leading termite bait brand).

| D-Day (or DDai'i)

I think this is D-Day for RDub, no? Have a good flight, beware the Haole-Killas, and try and protect Pearl Harbor this time. You sucked at it last time.

Blog ASAP about what's going down over there and when you get an all expense paid laptop to play BB on!

Also, you should set up a twitter account, man! I am using mine all the time sitting in front of a computer all day.

| Now this here is some good smack talk

I LOL'd.

I bet you guys are gonna be super cool once your testicles drop.

Aeryk, I guess that means we're on next. I could start a game from 9-10 tomorrow night or sometime on Saturday.

Enron helped me spend $865 on hookers and blow tonight. Or on a TV. One or the other. I don't remember. Thanks man whatever it was.
I waited for you Johnny and you never showed...

Anyways, there was another update yesterday and I never got a notice to update and then it wouldn't let me connect, so download the update from here and install it unless it does it for you:

Whatever. Now i'll just f* up your guys in a real match, it doesn't make a difference either way.

You gonna pussy out tonight too? Cuz I'm gonna go eat mongolian wok, be back around 9:30 and I'll need my dessert.
I would visit you but 3 things:
1. You live about 10 minutes from me, 10 minutes too far
2. I'm going camping tomorrow so I won't be here
3. You badly injured some of my players in an exhibition game and for that you will never be forgiven, for a long time.
It is a friggin jungle. I'm back and actually noticed how cramped living here was. Just got used to living in Fremont where there's 5 cars to a street. My place here is 1 block away from Taco Smell, and it's sooo good, like i remember it! But heck, that shit is 99 cents a taco!

The jungle chicks are hot though, and I went to rice things last night (anyone remember that place?)... Everyones so laid back, slippers, shorts, Tshirt, your typical beach attire. Then it's summer break so all the cute little hotties are walkin around in their bunny slippers. They call me Chester the Molester...

You should come and visit me Rude! We can go to the beach and surf or something...
Oh snap, welcome to the jungle! (That's what I call the South Bay bro!)

Come with me kayaking one of these weekends. I head over to Long Beach (LBC) and it's pretty fun. I know you've always had a weak upper body, but this might help you start to tone up.

I'm going camping tomorrow morning for the weekend (going to a LAKE) but um, yeah, if I'm around tonight I'll look for ya, otherwise i'll be back sunday night.
officially moved down to Redondo. Last 2 days was without internet which was pretty painful. So rude, get your game on! I'll give you a good whuppin in my new house. Log online to skype if your online tonight

| Tips!

Art_of_Blocking.pdf That's a pretty cool pdf (looking like its taken from one of the manuals or something?) with good pointers for Blood Bowl blocking. I think I'm probably playing you next Johnny, so I want you to at least come with some skillz this time.

| ROMA VICTOR!

EDIT: I wrote that last night, tired as frick, so omitted all the details to the game. After watching the replay, basically both sides played solidly. I'm a bit surprised as that being Jon's 4th game ever in his BB career and the improvements executing the box strategy almost flawlessly. What gave me the advantage was the favorable Injury die rolls. Even though the skavens were short-manned all game, there was a point where Jon could have taken a 2-1 lead with an amazing long pass. So the game was much closer than realized.

---------------------------

Seriously, I offered a good beatdown to the skavens! pretty awesome game. Pretty much all game I had at least 2-3 guys up on Jron, and by the end of the game most of his players were knocked out cold. There was 2 guys left standing. From turn 14, my passer had the butter fingers or his hand shoved up his butt, so he critically fumbled to pick up the ball twice despite the sure hands skill.

The last drive was the cancellation of all the lousy luck added up to that point. nice quick pass, handoff, and 2 GFI's for VICTORY!

GG...

I hope I get to play eric next as he has 8 players....

| I lost but that was fucking rad

Put it this way, in turns 14-16, I had three or fewer guys on the field, and there was STILL a substantial chance we could've tied. It was crazy. It came down to him HAVING to make a pickup, pass, and go for it run in turn 16.

Gonna have to review the replay when I'm not blinded by tired.

| Rudy 3 - Moody Blues 1

Good game! Yeah, I was up 2-1 and was within scoring range sometime around turn 13 or 14 and I decided to run it along the edge to play out the clock. It is cheaps but I was afraid of the chaos line at the beginning of a possession and with my luck he'd score twice in a couple turns and kill some dudes! The dice gods were on my side but I think I'm also getting better at using my skinks to tie shit up. Yeah, they're flimsy but in this game his chaos just couldn't get a break with blocks n' junk.

| "Here, have your ass"

"Why, thank you!"

Some brutal tossing around of ragdoll Chaos Warriors and beastmen (seemingly mostly be their own blocks), followed by some dodgy ass skinks, and for desert some end of game stalling and beatdown, leaves BC Kislev 2009 with 10 players on the roster, missing two with injuries next game, and a 1 - 3 loss under our belts. We was whupped! I understand pissing in the cornflakes of the dice gods this morning was not the smartest thing to do, but it seemed like a good idea at the time.

Rudy played a solid game and beat the hell out of me!
Hey Ja-el if you want to get in a game tonight, give me a call on the cell up until about 10:00. I'll probably be sitting here painting my li'l miniatures.

Aw man, I totally had a "drinking the tap" joke on deck too but musta forgot. :@
Ya Ja-el, I heard you did a lot of "drinking the tap" over there in Manila....

Anyway I woke up really late today (as in, about an hour ago, ugh) and I've got a few things to do this afternoon so this morning won't work out after all. Hopefully we can still fit in a game today but if not then tomorrow night should be OK too.

"Hard-ass douchebag" is my new favorite phrase.

And the white ninja description cracked me up.

Good times.
Aaron and Ryan... hehe... yes, I agree. now that I think of it, tighty whities must have been it. That is the 'balls on the bullseye' as they say. It must have been confusing, when I jumped out in my tighty whities. He was stuck in a hug or hump conundrum, trying to figure out if I intended to lay him like a $6000 dollar japanese sex doll to be mounted in my living room or if I was a white ninja with an incredible katana! Aww cmon... We can has guys here!

Seriously...

Ryan - Muhalo... and wish you the best on your job/fun to the lovely state of Hawaii! Moving far away is daunting, but it sounded like you had a pretty good offer on the table. Hawaii does sound 500,000 times more tintilating than the Philippines not to mention you will probably be safe drinking the tap!
ja -El: See the real problem is that not only did you answer the door in your finest white briefs, but you also told your shocked cousin that its okay because, "We're all guys here" as you started to rub one out. That's just not acceptable behavior my friend. He probably couldn't look you in the face or respond because his brain was busy trying to cope with the emotional scars formed from the experience.

Ry: Better to be a big pussy than a hard-ass douche bag. Better yet, you didn't cry in front of your team in your tighty whities and think it was okay. Seriously though, you have to provide us Actionteam blogs so we can live adventures in Hawaii vicariously through you. Good luck, sounds like you are going to have a great time.
