Shattered Sun

I know I’ve mentioned more than once how much I love IRC, and this is yet another reason why:

grammAr police: any correction of spelling, grammar, punctuation, etc. Comes from a conversation on #mal between Mal, Jhadar, and I.

My oldest friend in Dereth is Toluene the Unstable. He’s one of the most interesting people I’ve ever met in my life and he’s always keeping life fun. It might just be the Aussie in him, lol! Anyway, he’s going to do this cool thing of traveling the shores of Dereth. It’s totally awesome!

So, read his story thus far by going to his website and clicking on the Asheron’s Call link (upper left). Scroll to the bottom of that frame page and click on the Circumnavigation of Dereth link. You’ll enjoy the travels! I know I have so far! :grin2:

Talking about playing NetHack:

I can’t remember triumph: it was an accident, lol dalaniss: LOL triumph: :grin2:

1. What song (new or old) do you secretly enjoy, but publicly ridicule? Why? There are no songs that I do this with. I’m pretty opinionated about music and I don’t think that people should ridicule a song just because of peer pressure. I’d love to see everyone enjoying something without thinking that it’ll reflect bad on them. (I will admit that there are songs I ridicule that I sing along with. It doesn’t mean that I really like them, it’s just that they’re so darn catchy!)

2. Do you carry a purse or tote bag or backpack? If so, what’s inside? I carry a small purse. Usually, regardless of season, you’ll find inside it: Aveeno anti-itch cream, pack of gum (typically Juicy Fruit), soapless hand cleaner, a few cough drops, a tampon, advil, book of matches, breathe freshener, Chapstick, id cards (etc), money, sunglasses, and keys. The outside usually houses my cell phone. (more…)

1. If your life were a movie, what would the title be? What You Want and What You Get

2. What songs would be on the soundtrack? Songs by Michelle Branch, Bryan Adams, Shania Twain, and a few other similar artists.

3. Would it be a live-action film or animated? Why? Animated, because live-action is so unreal. I think that animations make everyone think of the story versus thinking of the physical realm.

4. Casting: who would play you, members of your family, friends, etc? I’d have everyone voice themselves. It would make for a great budget!

5. Describe the movie preview/trailer. It’d be boring, but it would start with a daydream of what I think life should be like and then it would cut to reality and show what life is really like.
