Day 109 - The Order Delivers Itself To Your Door, Demonology Dames For Dips, They Had A Space-Hoax Gap!, There's Hobbies And Then There's Hobbies, Budget Nuclear Weapons Storage, And Master Peng Doesn't Get The Whole 'Kill The Monsters' Part of Dungeons & Dragons.

7:45 AM Mr. Mustard
Sounds like good reading for the Long Pork fans
"Death is the ultimate take-down," says Mary Roach, author of "Stiff: The Curious Lives of Human Cadavers."
7:46 AM Mr. Silver
You misread it, sir...you were looking for "Death Is The Ultimate Take-Out"
7:46 AM Mr. Mustard
Either way
7:47 AM Mr. Silver
"Delivery Orders At Least $15"
7:47 AM Mr. Mustard
No doubt



7:45 AM Mr. Brown
I found something yesterday that is saying that Lucifer and Satan are two different beings
in the writings.
7:45 AM Mr. Silver
Yes.
7:45 AM Mr. Brown
One is the original sinner that was put in hell to watch over it.
The other lead the revolt.
7:47 AM Mr. Silver
Satan was merely a tester.
That was his job in the old testament.
Lucifer revolted.
7:48 AM Mr. Brown
Yet people put the name together as one.
7:50 AM Mr. Silver
A lot of Post-Bible Demonology is just old gods and whole cloth BS, you know.
"Hmm...I need a Hebrew sounding name for a devil, so I'll stick -rael at the end of...oh...Bliz.  Blizrael.  Yeah!  I'll stick him in a sermon!" 
"Isis" is a devil according to those goofs.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isis  Feast your eyes on all her evil powers...
7:53 AM Mr. Brown
Well, I think that a lot of Egyptian gods had both sides - good and evil.
7:54 AM Mr. Silver
Isis was as good as they got.
7:56 AM Mr. Silver
Apart from her being an Egyptian goddess, they may have latched on because she was a she, and everyone knows women are vile sin-pots.
"Hmm...What about Isis?"
"Devil."
"Yeah but she's great...look at her list...she loves and cares for everyone."
"Female."
"True...(scribes under 'Devil')"
7:58 AM Mr. Brown
She makes us think she is helping us by doing all that good!
lol
Devil!
7:59 AM Mr. Silver
Ishtar I can see on the list.  Isis, no
8:02 AM Mr. Silver
This is what the goddess of Sex and War has to say when she doesn't get her way:
“If thou openest not the gate to let me enter,
I will break the door, I will wrench the lock,
I will smash the door-posts, I will force the doors.
I will bring up the dead to eat the living.
And the dead will outnumber the living.”
8:02 AM Mr. Brown
Lots of fun.
lol
“OK, OK! I will do it with you, lady! Are you PMSing or something ?”
8:03 AM Mr. Silver
"Worship me!  NOW!"
"I don't think we should see each other anymore..."
Yeah, she had a sleeping-around problem, and people dissed her on it.
8:04 AM Mr. Brown
Original slut
lol
8:05 AM Mr. Silver
"You want to date me?  I see...let's review how you handled your last dozen lovers, shall we, Ishtar?"



8:13 AM Mr. Brown
I was watching something the other day about how the moon came from earth,
and we were going to the moon to study this in the first place, but then we never went back.
8:14 AM Mr. Silver
I'm not sure what they were honestly expecting to gain from a scientific knowledge perspective. Engineering it was a huge deal though.
8:21 AM Mr. Brown
I love the excuses people try to come up with for us not actually going to the moon. To me, everybody coming up with these theories did not do enough work to prove their ideas.
8:22 AM Mr. Silver
It didn't help that the USSR faked a mission.
8:22 AM Mr. Brown
Yeah?
9:29 AM Mr. Silver
It was mentioned on that "Dark Matters" show.  A publicized mission of orbiting the moon involved launching out a radio repeater to fake the location of the "cosmonaut" transmissions.  No one was in space.
9:45 AM Mr. Brown
We have moved on to sending people to their death on Mars.
lol
9:55 AM Mr. Silver
Depending who goes...I don't mind.
10:01 AM Mr. Silver
I read a lot of the comic strip "Pogo" in my youth, and they had recurring bad-science goofs in it.  They would talk about the space race occasionally, and the one character, a mouse, was all excited at the prospect of men being launched into space.
"Whoosh!  Up it goes!  Whoosh!  Two!  Whoosh!  Three!  Four! Five! Whoosh!"
"Exciting, yes, but how are we going to get them all back?"
(Mouse looks confused) "Get them back?" 



2:00 PM Mr. Brown
2:21 PM Mr. Apple
Haha!
2:53 PM Mr. Silver
Everyone needs a hobby.
2:54 PM Mr. Apple
At work or home?
2:54 PM Mr. Silver
Hehe
The guy taking the picture is wearing a bag saying "My wife will kill me when she finds out how much I spent on Pokemon cards."
2:56 PM Mr. Apple
lol



3:10 PM Mr. Silver
Note the cardboard, red duct tape, and the guys that look as military as me.
3:13 PM Mr. Gray
LOL
It does look like a fake.
3:13 PM Mr. Silver
"Yeah, the Air Force asked if they could use the spare shed in '74, and I had to clean out some old lawnmower stuff, but she fit right in there."
3:16 PM Mr. Apple
Haha!



10:34 AM Mr. Gray
So we'll figure on a monthly D&D game at 12th lvl, on Sundays.
LOL. Ned's character is gonna hate us. Add Master Peng to that.....Oh God LOL
10:38 AM Mr. Yellow
Why would Ned hate us? I have an Illusionist and will talk about how belief makes things real.
10:39 AM Mr. Gray
Ned's is an Assassin....Pure Neutral. I'm a Paladin.  Peng is a pacifist.  I just think we'll drive him a bit nuts.
Should be fun!
10:40 AM Mr. Silver
Peng's not on the pure "Old Master" path yet, but has mostly withdrawn from the "killing stuff" part of his career.
10:40 AM Mr. Gray
Which will be even funnier since Peng is going to be our main fighter LOL!
10:40 AM Mr. Silver
A Taoist will get along with an illusionist, lawful, and true neutral just fine...he's a Taoist.
10:41 AM Mr. Gray
"What do you mean our fighter is a pacifist?! I'm a friggin ASSASSIN!!"
10:41 AM Mr. Silver
The main conflict will be Peng smacking things silly with non-lethal damage, just to have the assassin coup de gras them.
10:42 AM Mr. Gray
LOL
Good point
10:42 AM Mr. Silver
"(sigh) You just don't understand...ah well...you'll learn one day. And if you don't...well that's alright too."
10:44 AM Mr. Gray
LOL
10:46 AM Mr. Yellow
I think I am going to make my wizard an entertainer as well.  It lulls people into a false sense as to his actual power. I am thinking about a stage show right now LOL!
10:50 AM Mr. Silver
"I will now pull a rabbit out of this gentleman's hat." 
"He doesn't have a hat."
"And I don't have a rabbit, but warning him that the trick is to pull his heart out of his throat is kind of a giveaway." 
10:51 AM Mr. Gray
LMAO
11:55 AM Mr. Silver
Master Peng is a Non-Killing machine.
Still at level 10, with his monk's Flurry of Blows, 3 attacks a round for 3d12+6 each, and I have 2 levels to add.
Glad he's just slapping people instead of breaking them.
11:58 AM Mr. Gray
Nice
11:58 AM Mr. Silver
"(slap slap slap!)  Please stay down.  I do not like striking you because I think you are just misunderstood, and staying down would prove you are wise."
12:00 PM Mr. Green
LOL
