While watching Lord of Illusions, I'm trying to rebuild a deck that I've given several cards away from. Fiona takes the incomplete deck that I'm using and starts shuffling it.
Trey: I need those for a minute.
Fi: NO! They have to be properly shuffled. I have to check them for poison.Current Mood:  amused Current Music: Lord of Illusions |

Courtesy of The Chuck Norris Fact Site,
Chuck Norris sold his soul to the devil for his rugged good looks and unparalleled martial arts ability. Shortly after the transaction was finalized, Chuck roundhouse-kicked the devil in the face and took his soul back. The devil, who appreciates irony, couldn't stay mad and admitted he should have seen it coming. They now play poker every second Wednesday of the month.

While skimming various news sources, I came across the following:
My new band name: Popcorn Lung
New business card: Endless Carnal Thrill Ride
A PSA. Somehow, I think we'll manage that fleeting sense of regret.
And, if you're starting an online dating service, is calling it Plenty of Fish really the best idea?

Flist is trimmed. Mostly journals I don't read or who don't post. Nothing personal. Carry on.

1. People who get bent out of shape about things that only exist online make me throw up a little.
2. Never choose children from an audience to be volunteers. Evil, ugly, vile little beasts.
Fortunately, there's faire this weekend.

I'm selling my pool table. Anyone who wants it, or knows someone who wants it, let me know. It's an AMF Playmaster, Hanover edition. Comes with the ball set, cue ball, five cues and the bridge. Also have the triangle for it. It's the 8 ft. model, and is really heavy. One small rip in the felt, but it doesn't affect play, and I imagine could be repaired fairly easily.
( Table Pics )
Asking price is $500, but I'm willing to entertain other offers. I imagine that it would have to come apart to be transported, but something can be arranged.

Been thinking about this for a while, and I'm not using Dren as a stage name anymore, so I thought this would be a little more appropriate, given the amount of show stuff I talk about.

Not as good as I'd hoped, but still worth seeing. Not as much card work as I was hoping to see, especially since R. Paul Wilson was the magic consultant, but there you are.
Some of it was really well done, some of it was completely unbelievable. Like, for example, how the hell do you manage to sneak a 50 caliber BFG into a hotel in Tahoe? I mean, really. And if you do manage to get it in and such, when you start letting off random rounds into the building across the street, WHY THE HELL DOES IT TAKE HOTEL SECURITY SO LONG TO GET THERE!? It's not like it's a quiet weapon. Honestly....
The ending shoot 'em up sequence got to the point of sillyness, but I think that must have been the point. The director looked at the cast and said "well...um...sorry".
And the end....um...hmm.....not what I thought would happen, and I didn't think it was all that believable, but whatever. All in all a good action flick. Not sure if it's worth buying.

Yuma was good. Closer to the sun than anywhere else on earth, but good. They really did their homework on how to organize a faire (3 years worth of research and planning, according to the organizer), and it showed. I'd put their attendance at somewhere around 3-4K for the weekend. Already been invited back next year, and it's definitely a show I want to keep. Got to share the stage with Myth & Magic, Siler & Clarc and the Duelists, who I was suprised to see. Haven't seen Randy ever since they stopped doing NCRF. Decided on the way back that while there's at least one reason to visit the L.A area, in general I despise it. Of course, traffic is one of my pet peeves, and especially on a sunday when I've been working all weekend.
gianni, you're going to be at the show Thursday night, right? Need to talk to you about the Jousting Championships if we get a minute.
Speaking of, mark_gerard, I know you told me what you'd decided on that, but I can't remember. Did you pass on it or are you doing it?
Gearing up for Calaveras, trying to change some stuff out of the act that I've gotten bored with or want to re-work to be a little flashier. I'm thinking changing the apple eating routine to an apple, a knife and a torch.
Lastly, a question for all of you out there in LJ land. As part of the change of career path I've put myself on, I've decided that having someone agent-ish who can go out and find the gigs for me might be a good idea, especially what with trying to get more into performing corporate type magic shows. Someone who maybe knows more doors than I do and how to open them. So, if any of you know any good variety agents, there are rewards for kicking their names my way. Cheers.

Found this in the childfree livejournal community. The article is just full of things to pick on, but I think that this is my favorite line:
But Wolfson, Moore and thousands of mothers like them call themselves and their belief system "Quiverfull." They borrow their name from Psalm 127: "Like arrows in the hands of a warrior are sons born in one's youth. Blessed is the man whose quiver is full of them. They will not be put to shame when they contend with their enemies in the gate." Quiverfull mothers think of their children as no mere movement but as an army they're building for God.
This is getting out of hand. If I told people that I was recruiting for an invisible, made up being, they'd lock my ass up. But apparently, not only do we like to breed out of control, thereby fucking things up even more, but we do it for an entirely made up reason! Gah! You selfish fuckers!!!!!!
Fine, if your children are an army for your fictional god, then let's send them over to the Sand Pit! Use 'em for what you bred them for! I'm sure that would make that goddamn cowboy reconsider this war.
That's it, I'm making my own army, and we're storming the gates!

Fear leads to anger.
Anger leads to hate.
Hatred leads to power.
Power leads to victory.
Let your anger flow through you.
Your hate will make you strong.
True power is only achieved through
testing the limits of one's anger,
passing through unscathed.
Rage channeled through anger is unstoppable.
The dark side of the Force
offers unimaginable power.
The dark side is stronger than the light.
The weak deserve their fate.
