Home again, home again.
We’ve returned from Paris and the jetlag has abated (mostly).
It was a really great event – tons of attendees, lots of really detailed presentations and extended Q&A sessions, plenty of tiny, tiny food. Our partners at GOA went all-out, providing an amazing facility, GIANT Chosen and Witch Hunter statues to keep Jeff and I company on stage and plenty of excellent extra-curricular activities. So a big thanks to those guys for running an absolutely kick-ass event.
Dear birthday well-wishers.
If you sent me something via Amazon that came off of my wishlist, two things:
1) Thank you!
2) I have no idea who you are because it came unsigned/unlabeled.
Please drop me a line to confess your generosity so that I may thank you properly.
News from the front.
We’re in France. We’re getting de-jetlagged. We’ve hit the Louvre (and will be posting a Very Special Mythic Tour later) and consumed something called “Campari” which – as near as I can tell – is iced Lemon Pledge furniture polish in a glass.
As part of my plan to always eat ridiculous, stereotypical foods when visiting Foreign Lands, my first meal was escargot followed by steak tartare:
Au revoir!
I’m off to Paris for our big European press event!
I’ll be back in next Saturday (my birthday!). Have a great week!
P.S. For anyone curious about the countdown ticker on the WAR Europe site, MBJ’s laid down the facts for you here.
The Age of Rockening
We had a studio-wide Rock Band contest recently. Ten bands (not counting The Hickmans Boring Managers Band who opened the show) competed for Wiis, iPods and undying rock glory. Paul and I MCed, dressed as two gents who JUST BARELY missed the chance to join KISS. Check out the pictures in the album below IF YOU DARE!!!

Lift your dice in tribute, friends, for Gary Gygax has gone on to that Great D&D Campaign in the Sky.
WAR iGoogle Theme
Kudos to CrypticApathy who pointed out that there’s a pretty sweet WAR theme available for iGoogle now.
I’d like to think it was created with me in mind.
[UPDATE] I couldn’t resist reposting this quote from vazzaroth:
[I]s it just me, or does it seem ironic that a search engine company doesn’t seem to have a “Search Theme” option? I can search by newness, Most used, and “Hottest”, whatever that means.
