relsqui and I are depriving ourselves of virtually every luxury to save up money for the Shuttle's repairs, we made an exception and purchased a sketch edition. From what's been reported in Howard Tayler's livejournal, he needs about 130 more orders to break even. That's within 8 hours of it reopening and people are still ordering by all appearances.Travian's been sucking up my life of late. The strategy involved is keeping my brain occupied which is nice.
I've finally gotten around to playing Hero's Quest (now -- and since the first run of the first game in the series -- Quest for Glory) through. I'm in the middle of the second one. I've been playing a thief and being as much of a multiclass as possible. I won't be able to become a paladin, but I'll settle for passing the test to become an initiate of the Wizards' Institute of Technocery and thieving bastard. I'm going to have to play from 2 on again as a fighter to become a paladin, I think. =/
My wrists, arms, and shoulders have been troubling me of late, so I'm trying to stay off of them.
North Korea looks like it's going to go for a second test. It makes me wonder what they're up to. The history of the country hasn't been aimed at making a name for themselves, but at playing the other countries around them against each other. I can't help but wonder if this isn't really a bid to cause havoc on the international stage more than anything else.
