I had originally planned on discussing this absolutely inspired Russian LARP today, but that’s going to have to wait until next week. Today it’s all about Dexcon 12.

Paint job problem

Sunday, July 5th, 2009

During the months of May and June 2009, we had to change our paint recipe. One of the ingredients that we normally use was out of stock, which then forced us to look for a replacement.

4th of July

Saturday, July 4th, 2009

For those not in the know, today marks the 223rd anniversary of America adopting its Declaration of Independence on July 4th, 1776 (American Revolution, Continental Congress, Thomas Jefferson? Any of this ringing a bell?). So to all of our American readers: Happy Independence Day! I hope everyones got a place to celebrate the three most important ‘F’s around: Food, Family, and of course FIREWORKS!

Now, uh, I’d love to stay and chat, but I’ve got an early barbeque to get to.

Cheers!
