That's terrific! And yeah, the Keys as a whole have been great. So much fun stuff out here.

Camping at Dry Tortugas was amazing. What a place. And Fort Jefferson was remarkable.

Fun night celebrating a friend's birthday and then watching Kwalmz play a metal show at Bar Redux.

The "making fireworks go off in the privacy of the reader's brain" line has always stuck with me. (Also, "Soul Music" is incredible, and has a zillion great music jokes.)

He sure was! An incredible player with great mobility. Still has the first, fourth, and fifth-best CFL QB rushing seasons all-time: 3downnation.com/2023/01/26/t....

CFL, CFB Hall-of-Famer Tracy Ham talks broadcasting, homerism CFB and CFL Hall-of-Famer Tracy Ham spoke to AA on his career, his current work at Georgia Southern, and why broadcasting wasn't for him.

Tracy Ham is definitely up there on the list of people most relevant to my interests I've gotten to interview. Crucial figure in CFL history. bit.ly/3TPPDA6

Fireball Island remains so much chaotic fun. And making it a drinking game (drink when you get knocked over, Malort if you get hit by a boulder) is a solid variant. Corporal Chaos approves of the box as well.

Fun solo game of Roll Player. My chaotic evil lunatic halfling savant cleric seems interesting to be around... preferably at a distance.

Next up for me at SDHistCon Second Front: demoing "A Gest of Robin Hood." Just going to have the animated movie songs in my head the whole time.

Corrupt Government winds up taking victory thanks to high patronage despite the NPA also hitting victory conditions. Great People Power demo at @sdhistcon.bsky.social Second Front. I love this one; excellent newbie-friendly three-way COIN tug of war with fun personalities/acts of desperation twists.

There's still some work to be done, but we finally got a refreshed look for the CFL on TSN.

Overall, I like it.

At SDHistCon Second Front, we have @drcrossbows.bsky.social interviewing @djackthompson.bsky.social about the history behind "Rebels Against Rebellion." Check it out here! www.youtube.com/live/p5Cf01b...

BREAKING: Sauron and Saruman's former alliance in ruins following Saruman's attempts to find the Ring for himself. The two are currently engaged in a Palantír feud.

An all-timer from that bozo

It is extremely funny to consider that literal dueling between key government officials was in some ways restrained compared to this.

Made @actioncookbook.com's Sloppy Julias (Julia Child-style Sloppy Joes) tonight, and they were amazing. Highly recommend. open.substack.com/pub/actionco...

So true! I love Czerny as Ritter. And that scene is so good.

CIA Hardass was the role Henry Czerny was born to play.

It's just two guys typing angry in "Computers Don't Work That Way", but damn if James Horner doesn't make it INTENSE.

Wild to see what the KublaCon hotel (in the last two) used to look like. The limited remaining trees are cool, but the previous forest looks even better.

Plus, this allows for climactic printing scenes. www.youtube.com/watch?v=0668...

Strangely enough, they've produced at least one other player with a (brief) CFL tenure: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brian_H...

Happy birthday! Hope it's a great one!

More Kublacon fun: Kings of Air and Steam, Congress of Vienna, 1848: Australia, Food Chain Magnate, and much more. Had an excellent time!

Great to see you! And that Tank Duel game was a lot of fun.

Having a great Kublacon so far! Tons of excellent games, including Border Reivers with @bggandrew.bsky.social, Fleet dice and original, Lords of Waterdeep, and more!

Very early morning start, but off to San Francisco for Kublacon (pre-event gaming today, full event starting tomorrow). Always one of my favourite weeks of the year.

WFAN's Boomer and Gio stunned to learn their producer booked the wrong Randy Moss Randy Moss is the perfect sports radio guest in the days leading up to the Super Bowl, assuming you booked the right Randy Moss.

But hey, people gainfully employed in this industry mix them up too, apparently. bit.ly/3OyuSHc

(I say this because this got a "That's not Randy Moss" response, and uh, it sure is the horse racing one, who's only been doing Triple Crown coverage for NBC for 14 years...)

How in the world do people still not know there are two quite different people in sports television named "Randy Moss"?
