Hey Enron-
Saturday is cool. I'm pretty much up for any cool game/s. Except probably long campaigns and stuff, since theres no way we'll get past the first epic orc/goblin battle. I tried dialing the 415-xxx-xx33 That's the number I called you on, but I'm getting a disconnected message. Let me know where to go. My cells been disconnected, but the house number you have is still correct.
Anyway, gotta run, - see ya soon.

jA-El: Welcome to the new world of struggling American air carriers. My experiences of late, outside of Virgin America, have been less than stellar since they started cutting costs and services left and right to make up for high fuel prices and a sagging economy. Boo...
jA-El, I believe that jr0n and I will be getting together with a couple other gamers this Saturday @ Noon. Come visit! As far as phone numbers, jr0n's has changed. Mine is still the same though. Do you still have the same mobile number? The 510.xxx.xx55? If not are you with your parents at 510.xxx.xx93? I'm still at 415.xxx.xx33. Lemme know if this doesn't help.
On a whim, the special lady friend and I went to see Bad Religion play at a small venue in SF on Wednesday night. I still really like seeing them in concert. They played a good mix of classics and newer songs, although if it were up to me they would have played more from the early days. On the downside, I was a total turd at work yesterday. I was so beat when I got home last night I fell asleep at 8:00pm and slept the night through.

My 70th level pally would rip through the baby Murloc!
jk jk... in game
Bay Area Residonts ...
I tried calling some of you but none of the numbers are any working anymore! Got milk? I just got back in town last night, what do you guys do for fun these days, besides work/sleep/work? That seems to be what I do most of the times anyway. My flight was unusually smooth, no delays, didn't get checked, got to ride first class (award points courtesy of my wonderfully generous brother). The only complaint I had was the lousy service of United and Northwest. Not a lot of smiles and only tried to do the bare minimal amount of servicing. Came around 1 or 2 times for drinks, etc. It just felt like the bare minimum that could have been done without the customers complaining that the attendents weren't doing anything. The chairs reclined to a whole 180 degrees horizontal! Wow.
Anyway, any plans on the weekend? Let me know if there's any home-brew gaming conventions going on in town. My preregistrations in the mail, but could have gotten lost.

Smoke and Mirrors
I think Jon is full of smoke and mirrors. I have checked the wowarmory and there are only TWO Blurst characters, and neither of them are Draenei....

Hey now, I actually listen to a WoW podcast too, haha. Legendary Thread - it's one of the 1up.com ones and I'm pretty gay for most of their podcasts. I just meant what got you to start playing the game again after all this time - cool you're digging it though, it'll go down as one of the greatest. I played for a lot longer than you lot after the initial crew fell off and probably burnt myself out from that point.
I gotta reiterate: Castle Crashers is one of the funnest fucking games. www.castlecrashers.com/ (It's slammed right now, but later on check it out - 4 player same machine or over live or mix n match - super funny and cute and fun. It's MY WoW dammit!
Dude Eric, I'm down for some Podcastin' maddness. I guess the big bummerness is that I'm down here and you guys are up there - sucks! Doing it over skype or whatever probably isn't very viable. Too bad. :(
Tiger Woods PGA 2009 is kinda weak. The demo was fun but renting the full game, not so fun. I'm like +17 on the tour right now. That's just ridicolous. But you can put your face in the game, so there's this freakish spore-creature thing that sorta looks like me playing golf. Or gorf.

Not Obsessed
It's just sort of what I have time to do anymore. Wake-up, get ready, family time, drive to work, work, drive home, family time, 15 - 60 minutes of WoW, bedtime, rinse repeat.
I don't have a weekly game group, I get to SF maybe once every month and a half, and that will be much less now that I am a 7.30 - 6.30 guy, and I really have no local friends up here.
It's really just what fits my free time schedule, and I think it is interesting to simply listen to people talk about things that interest me, even remotely interest me.

I totally love you eric, don't get mad, but I gotta ask, where did this totally random wow obsession come from , YEARS LATER!? I don't mean that in a snarky way like "oh, welcome to 3 minutes ok" but like I thought the glory days were pretty much done maybe after that first year or so and the group at least kinda quit playing. Yeah, rad game, but personally I can't imagine going back. What made you go back to it?
Castle Crashers released today on Live - sounds friggen rad. Great art-style, 4 player same machine co-op or over Live. Beat-em up but with RPG elements - I can't wait to get home and play - hearing great shit about it.

The Blurst of Times
Ah, nice decision with the Russian Goats from Space! The worst thing about playing the Draenei is their stupid-ass home city. I hated that place. I will try and log on tonight and see what's cookin'. Same server? Dalaran, right?
So, I am working 29 miles from the house in Gilroy these days which leaves me plenty of time to listen and explore (by necessity) podcasts, as the radio is burnt, and music is burnt too. I have discovered quite a few good ones which I will inform all of you here about.
- The Instance: A really good and well produced and supported WoW podcast. Lots of interesting information about WoW in an interesting format. From listening to the show, I am pretty much only scratching the surface of what the game has to offer, and I still feel like the game is rather rich and fulfilling. Raids, dungeons, pvp, guilds, arenas, equipment sets, supar rare pets, etc. Wowzers. And Curt Schilling is a regular on the most recent shows! Also, from the Rudy standpoint, one of the guys is in Texas and the other is in Utah and the audio quality is perfect with no lag. So it totally proves that it can be done. I wonder if they are using their guild ventrillo server and just balancing the input levels and mixing it all down.
- The D6 Generation: Three dudes that really like mini wargames. They all started as Warhammer 40K lovers, and have migrated to mostly Warmachine. One of them has a Golden Demon, one ran a game store and website called "Dakka Dakka" that only sold and supported GW stuff, another has been published in White Dwarf for his modelling skills. Whatever. They mostly talk about and discuss Privateer Press vs. GW from different standpoints; business, fun, cost, etc. They also discuss gaming in general and in later episodes regular board games, etc. Interesting talk to listen to.
- 3 pretty good wargame podcasts. Point 2 Point, the Sound before the Defeat, and The 2 Half Squads (ASL podcast).
- Puck podcast. Weekly NHL show by two sports writers for fun. They do a really great job, handle the show rather professionally by having sports writers from different markets interviewed on the show, and talk about all the different teams in the NHL. One is a Kings fan, and the other a Ducks fan, so that is a fun element.
So there you have it. No one needs to listen to podcasts because everyone that commutes on the Action Team takes the train so they can read or play games. But if for some reason, someone out there wants to listen to some 'casts, check these out!
Certainly makes me want to have a show every time we get together. As long as we have a brief outline, we could pull it off and people would listen to it methinks.
