Digital Beard Stroking: Stories

Stories One of the greatest mistakes you can make, when looking at people, is to assume that we are a rational, logical species.  (I, myself have made this mistake on a few occasions).  This assertion doesn’t hold up to the slightest bit of scrutiny (insert scathing political satire here).  Anyone […]


Boxed Culture: My T.I.M.E. Story 2

My T.I.M.E. Story Just two days ago my roommate and I played our first session of T.I.M.E. Stories. I have described this game as a puzzle room in a box. However, that was not really an apt description. It is more like a secret volcano puzzle lair in a box. In […]


Artificial Happiness: Blazing Dragons EP1

Due to Technical difficulties, and the fact that this game is awesome, we have jumped tracks and will be exploring a fantastic point and click adventure. Dark souls will return, but in the meantime enjoy Blazing Dragons. Also thanks Heather!  


Graphic Reviews: Creator Content – Darwyn Cooke

Creator Content Darwyn Cooke And now for something different! This week in Graphic Reviews, I wanted to take some time to recognize and remember the work of a creator who had a huge impact on the comic book world: Darwyn Cooke. Cooke battled an aggressive form of cancer before sadly passing […]

Boxed Culture: Trading Books for Boards

Trading Books for Boards I have a bimonthly table top RPG group. We have run through many different pen and paper RPG systems. From Dungeons &Dragons 4th edition to Warhammer 40,000: Dark Heresy, we have played and learned a lot. The main problem we run into is that table top RPG rule […]


Graphic Reviews: Preacher

Preacher The abiding connection between America and cowboys has always fascinated me. Despite it having been generations since cowboys were in their heyday, the cowboy remains one of those quintessential American figures. Ask anyone to name something American and along with baseball and mom’s apple pie, I guarantee that cowboys […]


A Bard’s Eye View: Dream Theater

An Astonishing Experience An Evening with Dream Theater   I’ve had the distinct pleasure of seeing a few bands perform where they were the only band on the ticket.  Amon Amarth, Steven Wilson, and Machine Head are a few that I’ve seen with that particular distinction.  It is always an […]
