Happy Birthday, Wolfgang!

In celebration of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's birthday, here's the Amadeus Electric Quartet with a re-engineered, re-classicalized version of Falco's 1980s pop song honoring the music world's first superstar.

This version of Falco's song made me wonder what Mozart would think about being so popular more than 200 years after his birth that not only were songs being written about him, but those songs were being reconstructed (and made to incorporate some of his music) by another band named in his honor...

News from the Death to America Crowd

Are we sure it was a drone strike? Does anyone know if there were immodest women anywhere near the airport? Maybe they cause spontaneous combustion in addition to earthquakes?

The Legend of Eric Ciaramella

The secret Mark Z. doesn't want you to know and the REAL reason Facebook is deleting all references to supposed "whistle-blower" Eric Ciaramella!

I'll fly away on the 737 Max!

I've read that people are afraid to fly in the 737 MAX. Really?

Someone tell the airlines and Boeing that as of mid-November I am available every Friday (starting at Midnight) to fly round-trip from anywhere in Western Washington to anywhere in the world (so long as I am back home for the weekly Saturday RPG session--ideally--or by Noon on Sunday). Naturally, I want to fly first class... and naturally they'll pay for flights... but I'll get myself to the airport.

Educated on the Situation.

The InspiroBot Zodiac... help me collect 12 great ones!

In case you haven't heard, InspiroBot is the greatest toy to ever appear on the web. It lets you generate images that resemble those inspirational posters that were all the rage a few years back, or meme-style images that range from very silly to as "deep" as any of the aforementioned posters. Click here to have fun!

A couple weeks ago, the thing started doing Zodiac signs. Like always, some are clever, some are stupid, some are nonsensical.

I want to collect them all!

But I need your help! If you are making image quotes with InspiroBot and a Zodiac pops up, can you please (pretty please?) post it to this Facebook thread in a Comment? I hope to enshrine the best InspiroBot Zodiacs, when I have a set of 12, in a blog post--probably over at the NUELOW Games blog with some appropriately goofy roleplaying game rules.

Look kids! Comics!

For a little over two years now, I've been producing comics anthologies through NUELOW Games. This is probably not news to most of you, but if it is, now is the perfect time to check out one or more of the wide variety of titles that are available.

Each of the books are in PDF format and contain anywhere from 24 to 68 pages of Golden Age comics, augmented with new fiction, roleplaying game rules, and/or biographical material about the creators. From now through Saturday 3/7/2015, most of the comics are on sale for 30 percent off the regular price, so now is the perfect time to check them out. Some of these comics have never been collected in one place before, and few have been reprinted since they originally appeared in the 1940s and 1950s.

Here's a small cover gallery, just to show the wide variety of titles being offered.
