After an abnormally well-rested holiday weekend, I sat on the top floor of Tucker North and pondered what to do to make some good this holiday season. You see, the Battle Against Dysentery was originally conceived as a way to fill a charitable hole in my season of lights. Seeing as the B.A.D. is postponed to spring of 2012, I find myself once again a ship with no sail.
So, in consideration of this, I’m giving this little segment for Messages For Life a try – I’m calling it Changing The World For A Month.
With Thanksgiving just a few days away, many people are preparing to prepare one of the most tremendous meals of the year. With this comes adventures in excess, like the Turducken. Most notable among the new American traditions for the beloved holiday of joyous gluttony is the deep fried turkey. A deep fried turkey is an extremely tasty addition to a holiday meal, but it can be a very dangerous prospect when prepared incorrectly.
Seeing as the weekend after Thanksgiving is quickly approaching, I thought it important to let our loyal fans know about a change in the schedule for the fourth annual iteration of the Battle Against Dysentery, the Geeks’ yearly charity extravaganza. I’d like to think of it as a “Bad News, Good News” kinda thing.
It’s funny that Tuck chose this week to wax poetic regarding role-playing games, as it’s a rather momentous week for the geek parents out there (and folks who know geek parents). This week is when the seeds of the gamer geek may first be sown by a parent wanting to instill a love of the tabletop in their youngster. This, is “Teach Your Kids To Game Week.”
Space…The Final Frontier. These are the voyages of your internet-connected browser. Its potential mission – to explore strange new photos; to seek out strange new sub-planetoids and new places for the New Horizons spacecraft to land. To boldly go where no geek at their desk has gone before…This is IceHunters.
