GenCon 2010
I went to GenCon this year. This was my first GenCon and my first Con ever. GenCon promotes itself as the best four days in gaming, and I was not disappointed. I spent three of the four days wandering through the Indianapolis Convention Center, watching games in progress, looking at displays, checking out the various [...]
Ragdoll Cannon
Courtesy of Cory Doctorow’s link over on BoingBoing, I stumbled across this hugely addictive puzzle game where you shoot ragdolls from a cannon in order to get them to the target. It’s got 20 levels and plays rather quickly. It’s pretty fun! Ragdoll Cannon 3
Ubuntu “Lucid Lynx”

The Fade
I played a little bit of Dragon Age: Origins tonight. I probably should have spent that time working on one of the two short stories I currently have in progress, or working on the next part of my Codrus’ Labyrinth campaign for my D&D group, or doing some cartooning for one of the webcomics I’m [...]
iTunes Error: Store Can’t Connect to the Internet
I spent some time last evening troubleshooting an iTunes error on his computer. Anytime he tried connecting to the iTunes Store, it would kick back an error that it could not connect to the Internet. Googling around turned up a handful of solutions, few of which worked. Turns out the solution (in this case) was [...]
