Jolt Cola Cup

Preparing for the Jolt Cola Cup has consumed most of my free time for the past couple of weeks. Things are shaping up, and I am excited, but I am cutting things very close. I will get the rules packets printed up on time somehow. I’ve got a lot of work to do tonight, and will probably also need to work on it a bit during anime night, which sucks.

Must… stop… reading… horrible… Christian… propaganda… *gasps for air*
“I do not find in our particular superstition of Christianity one redeeming feature…Millions of innocent men, women and children, since the introduction of Christianity, have been burned, tortured, fined and imprisoned. What has been the effect of this coercion? To make half the world fools and half hypocrites; to support roguery and error all over the world.”

This essay is the best ever. All those other essays you have read are inferior to this one. If you think there is another, better essay out there, you are totally wrong, because no essay could possibly be as good as this one.

Here’s a great sermon entitled Living Under Fascism. It does a nice job summing up the state of affairs in America today. There is some rhetoric that annoys me, but overall it’s a strong piece.

The more I work on my post about a fundamental moral system (the one that will enumerate my “moral tenets”), the more futile it seems, and the more overwhelmed I feel. Actually, I am bouncing back and forth between reasonable certainty that what I’m thinking about is valid, and a terrible inkling that I’m fooling myself and just as blind as everyone else. I feel utterly philosophically inept, with my thinking dried up and impotent around every corner as tiredness overwhelms me. See, I’m even mixing metaphors now.

On my way to work this morning, I stopped by McDonald’s to order the venerable Extra Value Meal #3. (Although I was tempted by the Sonic Heroes Happy Meals, I resisted that dark urge.) Anyway, it was fairly busy even at 10:30. I thought the person had said “pull around to the first window” through the speaker, but when I got there, the girl inside was occupied, messing with the cash register drawer continuously, in such a way that I couldn’t tell whether she was supposed to be taking my money or not. Meanwhile, the car in front of me had already received its food and driven off. Not wanting to hold up the line, I pulled forward to the second window.
I'm way smarter than you!

My team got destroyed in the final Shards of Eberron session, eaten by a red dragon. In its own way it’s cool, because I don’t think you have truly experienced all that D&D stands for until your entire party is wiped out and devoured by this quintessential beast. On the other hand, I have felt really stupid lately. We made some obvious strategic errors, many of them at my suggestion (“Come on guys, let’s cut across this rubble where we only move half speed! Let’s stay clustered together so that the dragon’s breath can hit all of us–oops, I mean, so that we can’t be separated and ambushed individually!”). Maybe I’m overreacting, and I just need to stop staying up too late playing Paper Mario 2. But I still feel weak.
