Politically Incorrect Thought of the Day: Life and Law in Angie-Land

I think morgues should be under fiat to extract human organs from cadavers for transplant, regardless of consent. It's not like you need that anyway, you selfish prick.

From Chris' plethora of interesting away messages... (which I've created a list for, as I have Jose's).

There was the AD&D campaign I ran that was a rip-off of the Wizard of Oz. You know, Dwarves for Munchkins and all that, with a high level Wicked Magic-User of the West. The campaign actually lasted quite a while to my regret.

I seem to recall the PCs killed the Dwarves/Munchkins to take their stuff and tore up the yellow brick road because they thought it might be made of gold. The PCs also killed the Wizard of Oz because he sassed them too much and set Scarecrow on fire because he gave poor directions.

It goes to show that the (dismal) reality of human nature is best displayed when people have the opportunity to be directly and unlimitedly responsible for their own moral choices.

Why else do most roleplaying games end up so fucked up?

Hey everyone, UMBC's blood drive is this Tuesday, the 20th, from 10am-4pm in the Commons. You can walk in, or make an appointment by emailing Erin Hood at hood2@umbc.edu. Appointments make it go faster doubly because a) if you have an appointment you'll get priority and b) the more appointments they get, the more staffers and equipment there'll be, making it go faster in general.

If you can't make Tuesday, there's a separate blood drive on Friday, the 23rd, on South Campus. Check it oot..

ALSO, there's a blood drive in Catonsville on Saturday the 24th at the Banneker Community Center from 10:00-3:00. It's reachable by the MTA Red Line, bus route #2.

27 Melvin Avenue
Catonsville, MD 21228

The Community Center's phone number is: 410-887-0959... Someone there should know what's going on.

If you give blood, you can make it to one of the drives. Unless a piano fell on you.

BTW, I'm trying to dedicate my life to public service. Which is why I spent Labor Day weekend clearing park trail with a machete on a stick*. Okay, so that's not the only reason. If anyone asks: Dungeons and Dragons made me do it.
