The opening line of Blood Rites had me laughing: "The building was on fire, and it wasn't my fault."
Okay...serious laughs over the following press release that hit all over today:
--------------------------------------
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
March 31, 2014
New York, NY
First, there were novels. Then it became a TV show. Then a comic book. Now, Harry Dresden is going where no urban fantasy book series has gone before. In Spring 2015, THE DRESDEN FILES conquers Broadway.
This new musical takes inspiration from the events of “Dead Beat,” the seventh book in the multiple #1 New York Times bestselling series. Multiple-Tony Award Winning director and costume/puppet designer Julie Taymor (The Lion King,
Titus, Spider-Man: Turn Off The Dark) was hand-picked for her experience bringing fantastical creatures to the Broadway stage. Ms. Taymor mused, “I’m so grateful for this opportunity to realize a childhood dream of mine. I pushed Disney to include a zombie T-Rex battle in The Lion King, but they preferred I remain more faithful to the film.”
Author Jim Butcher expressed great enthusiasm for the selection. He remarked, “She made a musical about Spider-Man. That’s awesome. Hey, can this musical be a Spidey crossover? How much dueling snark can you put in a song?” Butcher then proceeded to sing the original 1967 cartoon theme song and “web” the interviewer with Silly String.
Frequent collaborators Marc Shaiman and Scott Wittman (Hairspray, Catch Me If You Can) were tapped to create the music and lyrics, due to an industry reputation for writing “the sassiest lyrics ever.”
The workshop begins April 14th starring Hugh Jackman (Oklahoma, The Boy From Oz) as Harry, Matt Bomer (8, Magic Mike) as Thomas,
Christopher Fitzgerald (Young Frankenstein) as Butters, and Scarlett Johansson (Cat on a Hot Tin Roof) as romantic interest Shiela/Lasciel, with Broadway great Terrence Mann (Cats) reprising his role as the voice of Bob.
“Dead Beat” is slated to open at the Nerderlander Theatre on April 1st, 2015.

In the application's settings, is your headset set as the default device?
Are the sounds for one coming out of your speakers or just not at all?
No, only default communications device. When I attempt to set my headset to default device, nothing happens. D:
And the sounds from the game come through my speakers, yes.
Did you ever fix this btw?
I sure didn't.

Yep, Daarken is one hell of an artist. I so wish he would attend Spectrum Live...gods know he's been featured in the books often enough. I'll have to get my hands on Pharika to get signed along with Mogis and Erebos...maybe Mohrbacher will even bring the original if it's not yet sold.

Keranos is the best. I love the really bright lightning and the use of the stone structures and trees to give the picture perspective (that's a huge lighting bolt.)

Won $150 playing blackjack last night.

Second best odds in the house. Good game to be playing if you want to lose the least amount of money over the long term.
But as a Great Math Analyst, I'm sure you knew that.

Ham was card-counting.

Card counting for $150 seems like a waste of time.

Played for 20 minutes, seemed fine
I was at dinner with my aunt who plays at the casino a lot. They gave me a $25 free play token so I ran it over to blackjack.

Netflix wins worst and most heartbreaking April Fool's joke of the
yearFOREVER.
http://www.thetvaddict.com/2011/04/01/b ... h-firefly/
Yeah, so they did this back in 2011. It's still the most cruel April Fool's joke I've ever seen.

They did that last year.

Oh, damn, no, they actually did that in 2011. I just saw it on my facebook and thought it was recent.

They do this every few years and I fall for it every time.

What's the first? My info is pretty clear that cardhouses lose their shirts on Blackjack. (Well, not lose lose, but comparatively it's by far the best value.) The only other thing that's even close is sports betting, and even that's a pretty far second.

Best score a little over 7k. I got to a 258 tile. Woo?

Don't. Move. Up.
The game isn't hard. It's a little bit of luck and a lot of just playing it a lot. Once the board gets flooded, you're at the point where you have the potential to make a huge play if you just slow down and think about what every move will do.
