R2-D2 Shreds It Up
There’s an awesome new commercial for the Star Wars: The Clone Wars animated series.
Adventurers Club Radio Broadcast Videos
I’ve started the long process of grabbing all the video that Natasha and I taped of the Adventurers Club over the last few weeks and posting it to YouTube. First up, the Radio Broadcast show….

Warwick Davis Looking For Star Wars Fans
Warwick Davis has posted some very funny videos to his YouTube channel. There are three; here’s a sample.
Importing a Blog to Facebook
I’ve just joined Facebook and I’m finding the whole thing really interesting, if a little scary for a relatively socially inept person like me.
I did figure out how to import my blog posts to Facebook, using this video on YouTube:

Very helpful! Thanks to techrecipes for posting it.
The Final Adventure
It hasn’t quite sunk in yet, that Adventurers Club has finally closed. I’m sitting here right now, capturing the video from my DV camera from many nights of adventure, listening to the familiar sounds of the Radio Broadcast, and the Balderdash Cup.

More On The New Hitchhiker’s Book
Some interesting notes on the new Hitchhiker’s book from The Guardian.
It’s being published by Penguin, not Hyperion as I reported earlier. (I thought the NPR thing mentioned Hyperion.)

World of Warcraft / Bejeweled and a WotLK Interactive Map

Bejeweled in WoW. Well, looks like flight time no longer means I can hit the restroom. I’m going to need a bucket….
Why Are They Jumping Up And Down On Douglas Adams’ Grave?
Eoin Colfer, who wrote the popular childrens book series Artemis Fowl has been tapped to write a sequel to The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy.
Now, I like Mr. Colfer okay. I understand his reasoning for not turning down the offer out of hand. And I hope he does a decent job. I read the first [...]
Reading: Star Wars – The Clone Wars Novelization
I have a confession to make. I didn’t rush out to the theater to see Star Wars: The Clone Wars. I hear you gasp. I hear you ask what has happened to my fandom. And no, I will not turn in my Jedi Knights membership card. Mind tricks are far too useful.
The characters are [...]
