Ok
this is getting frakken sick, I am sick and tired of this process.
I’m not asking for a frakken rocket scientist, I’m not asking for
someone who spent nine years in school and has more than my
Doctorate. I’m asking for someone to make coffee fetch coffee,
smile on occasion, answer phones, handle some little computer
duties and lets not go so far as to say be pleasant.
I’m not looking for a concubine, I’m not looking for a new
girlfriend or mistresses I’m looking for a DAMN FRAKKEN PA. That’s
it, one of the girls that applied has all the skills and more than
I need but she’s asking over $17.00 an hour. The truth is if I want
my business to expand and make money. I can’t pay someone that
much, weather I like them or not.
So we started this new round of interviews with the hope that one
would WOW me into submission. Well it didn’t happen, however I was
told this time that I was a fucking joke and wasted their time
because I wasn’t offering Benefits. The fucking funny thing is
this, if they had read the ad that I posted as I asked at the top
of the ad and the bottom of the ad. They would have seen it all, I
felt bad for Josh because I know he was traumatize by the women
that attacked us for wasting her time.
Simply put if they read the fucking ad they would have understood
that the job was PART TIME. I know no fucking company in the world
that gives Benefits for FUCKING PART TIME. Maybe I am just off a
little, or maybe I have watched to much Battlestar Galactica or
Highlander or sometime, and I live in a fantasy world. But for
Fucks sake, if you want massive amounts of money to be a PA then at
least read the fucking damn ad.
So I found one person and we’re gonna try each other out and see if
we fit for each other. The truth is, I’m not sure if it will work
with this new one, but we’ll see.
Ok I
have been busy as all hell, the on going search to find a Personal
Assisstant I hope ended today. I found a nice young lady who
happened to be a gamer. So this might acualy work
out. It sounds like she gave up D&D for WOW,
that's ok, she has never played Magic, or Highland so we must start
sharing the crack. We'll see how it all works out.
Anyway on to the Card of the day. I love this card, and had
it in several decks, back in the day. I have been able to
find a few so they will start making their way into my decks
soon.
Forged Steel
Remember Don't lose your head!
This
card is a better addition to like a Kalas deck or even a large
Xavier deck. A deck that is built with multiple cards that
you don't mind losing. The Card for today is our old friend
that loves to drink Duncan's wine, and use his shower on board the
Barge,

Turn over cards in your Endurance and discard them until you find the 1 you would like to keep. Then put that card in your hand.
As always let me know what you think...
Hey
here we are again with Card of the Day. Today the card of the
day is the Promo card Master. Originally given out by Thunder
Castle Games, for those people that went above and beyond to teach
people the card game. It was great, in the early days there
was no restriction to the amount that you could have in your
deck. So that meant a maximum of 6 per deck, I remember the
pre tournament scramble of people trying to get a couple to fill
out a deck lets face it. In a deck that had a Pre Game
Premium that gave +1 ability it could mean with a Quality Blade in
play, also a +1 if you where lucky enough to get all six out that
would give you a +6 Ability for a total Ability score of 23
Ability. That would be a crazy affair.
Master
In truth my love for this card came from the days when Thunder Castle Games actually cared for their players. What happened eventually was the owner got too big for his britches. He though he was invincible like some of the decks that rumor had that he had. Lets face it, being the owner of a game company and having the best ever deck is like being the king shit of the little yellow school bus.

So years and years and what seems like
years ago, I use to play this wonderful card game called Highlander
CCG. It was based on the hit TV series and
movies of the same name, I just recently got Josh, Ben, and Kevin
hooked on the game, and in hopes of finding more able bodied
Immortals to pick up swords and attack us to defend our chances to
win the Gathering and claim the prize.
Years ago when I was heavily into the Highlander circles I posted a Card of the Day on my Geocities website. Sometimes with a funny little story of how I used the card in some tournament, or how I think the card could be used. Sometimes I just posted the card, with nothing. So if you read this, and you want to shout out for the card of the day I look forward hearing from you.
One Last thing, it’s the Card of the day, but it might be the Card of the every other day, or the card of the week. So no getting punky if the Card of the day is late.
Nuts!
It’s
not often that I have an emotional outbreak because of a TV show
but this one did it to me in spades. I grew up in a small
town, like Jericho the only difference is that the small town I
grew up in has given way to a Wal-Mart Super center and massive
growth. Gone are the fields that I played in growing
up. Gone are the families that could trace their history back
to the revolutionary war and before. The Town of Westford was
incorporated on September 23, 1729. The Town is located to the west
of Lowell and north of Concord almost to the New Hampshire
border.I was sad at the lost of April, angry at the lost of Johnston Green, hurt and sad at the death of Bonnie the sweet girl from next door. I almost lost it at the thought of Hawkins giving his life so that Jake could get away with the bomb. I cheered when Jake said No, and forced Hawkins on to the plane. The ending was great, I loved it I’m just sad that in the fight we lost the little town of Jericho 2006-2008. All I can do is write this blog, and make this web comic.
There is one last thing that I can do like any real Fan of Jericho and that is scream NUTS! If we’re not lucky and Jericho is down for the count, lost to the stupid assholes that run the TV companies, that couldn’t see a good thing if it hit them in the face. I’m mad, I’m sad, but I’m glad that Grey finally came around and said it best. “I think it’s been two long since Johnston Green had something to say about Jericho.

So sometime almost two years ago now, we started an RPGA game
for the store, to get some of the crazy RPGA players involved in
the and our process. I created a rogue to play that was a adopted
brother to Kevin’s character. I flushed a lot of his history
out, as much as a character in a Living Greyhawke game can
have. Some things happened, well really Ben pissed the three
of us off so bad we put the characters up and swore on our
imagenary swords that we would never play again.
One of my hard and fast rules are if it’s not fun I don’t play
it. I have come to realize over the last few months just how
much of a yes man I have been while involving gaming. I have
ran games I didn’t want to run, I have played games that I didn’t
want to play. So after about a month of playing these
characters Ben did a few things, that pissed us off that as I said
we swore the game off. Fast forward a bit and the three
of us made a heroes in DDO. It just wasn’t the
same.
So fast forward to yesterday, and Ben sent me an e-mail and
told me that he relized that Kevin, Him, Josh, and I all had
tonight off and he wanted to run the Three Brothers game, or run
something that we could all be involved in. So the three of
us talked and said ok. We’re in!
So I got to play Balas, it was fun we beat the monster and
saved the day. So I took an hour and wrote what follows as Balas’s
Diary let me know if you like it or you hate it.

Some of you know that I have been looking for a
Personal Assistant. I have never seen such crazy shit in my life
and as many of you know I have seen some seriously crazy shit. I
thought watching the command ships burn off the arm of Orion was a
lot to take but this search has just been plain fucking nuts.The first person that stood out really stood out for a reason I guess in hind sight was simply being the best of the best of the best SIR! Her e-mail addy had a numerological number in it. It was like the fifth e-mail response that I had to the ad I posted. Yet it was the first that I really saw. So I called to arrange an interview, so that I wasn’t wasting my time, I called another candidate to have a meeting shortly after the first.
The first showed, and we had pleasant meeting lots of questions back and forth, and forth and back. It was good, she pasted the first phase of my evil plan to find the as close to perfect Personal Assistant that I could find for the money.
The responses I have had have been great, one person did not read the ad where it said PART TIME NOT FULL TIME. This person stated that they wanted to be my humble PA for the mere sum of 65,000 dollars a year. Ok, if my PA was Getting 65K a year I think I would work as my own PA and keep the fucking money. (OK, it sounded funny in my head.) Now this was a part time job in Mesa AZ not fucking Wall Street NYC, or Redmond WA.
The next great one was from a person whom claims to have been Director of Operations for Hillary Clinton for President. Ok if they where the DOC for Hillary I would think that they would still be working unless they were fired for fucking something up (Not good when looking for a new job) or quit because the stress was to much (Not good if they want to work for me, Captain
