Name a Soul for Rift! (I think Chloromancer is quite funny, but maybe you can be funnier).

Telara Chronicles is at your local comic shop. I have proof.

Unplayable - I think this speaks volumes to the stylistic changes that have happened in game design.

Hands on with Rift - There is a trend here, play the game... love it.

"Earlier that day, I had the opportunity to bend the ears of the Trion team members as they set up for the imminent PAX crowds. Squirreled away in a private room, a pair of devs walked me through the character creation process. I had to admit: Up to this point, Rift had been clocking pretty low on my interest radar. It took just one interview and a hands-on demo to change all that."

Liveblogging Hurricane Earl

And by "liveblogging" I mean my Dad will occasionally send me updates.

@ 3:30pm TWC finally cut to their crack meteorologist on Lighthouse BeachChatham who demonstrated that Earl was still 250 miles south because nothing
was happening.

@3:35 Mom'nme drove to the Lighthouse overlook. Hit static traffic jam at
intersection near Chatham Beach'nTennis club. Scanned for terrified
prehurricane turistas. Saw 7 year old tennis player bouncing his racket off
the top of his 4 year old brother's head.

@3:50 decided that traffic wasn't moving because TWC, CBS, FOX, NBC, ABC,
and COMCASTIC Ch 8 media trucks were blocking the way. Used unsurpassed
knowledge of Old Town back streets and went past Claflin Landing, CBI, Fish
Pier, Scatteree, and Cow yard and saw nada. It was foggy and you can't see a
hurricane through fog, esp when the 'cane is 250 miles away.

@4:10 went to Sheila's house. She wasn't as terrified as we expected. She
was kinda COMCASTIC watching Judge Judy and didn't want to spend storm night
at our house.

@4:15 ran out of things to do and checked the lawn tractor in the backyard.
Found Mom's keys in the mud. Mom was so happy she actually stopped working
on a web page to give me a hug.

@5:00 turned off TWC and turned on ESPN. Started Blog that will make Captain
Cursor a fortune.
