Captain Disillusion, hero skeptic of YouTube, has a fantastic new video out. The debunking in this installment isn’t quite as thorough as are some of his other episodes, but the special guest and the “Contact” references make up for it. It’s important to spread the word: We (Skeptics) Are Not Alone!
Sara and I will be at TAM7. By all accounts, it promises to be–dare I say–amazing!

I’ve fallen behind on posting lately, for which I apologize (mostly to myself). There was a wedding one week, and a graduation the next, with lots of lab time in between. Meanwhile, Sara and I have discovered (and gotten completely sucked into) “Battlestar Galactica.” And on top of it all, I find myself with the responsibility of writing and organizing a Dungeons & Dragons campaign, a bit of a challenge considering the fact that neither I nor any of my three players have played the game before (apart from a few trial sessions).
In short, I’ve let myself get somewhat distracted from writing and drawing. It’s not the end of the world, I know. But it did feel good to pick up a pencil again the past night or two, if only a little bit at a time.
On the subject of fantasy games, I have been seriously jonesing for the original Final Fantasy on the NES.
