What's going on in your life?

[Count Vashra]

Well, hope you get all set up soon (internet can be a real pain, I know) and get started on all those juicy projects.

 

[Menkeroth]

Aye, good luck to you all, when the work starts it gets much easier and runs pretty quick

As for me, I'm on my way to München

 

[Zephyr]

Still the same depressing stuff going on but with hope on the horizon. The small online gaming store a friend and I started is now slowly taking off. This year alone we will also visit three major cons. In November will be largest one yet, even Forge World is attending that one. We also support local tournaments and those are going well.
Hopefully it really takes off so I can finally move out of this hellhole I live in. Sick and tired of this ghetto, it's detrimental to my already poor health. But I finally have a light at the end of the tunnel no matter how slim, doing something I love and that feels so good!

 

[hairyjeff]

Hold on to that thought, Zephyr.

 

[Menkeroth]

Aye, the ability to do what you want and like is the best thing you can have. Hold on and keep it going!

 

[Josef]

Work + School + Projects thats about it with me.

and grats all yall that have good stuff brewing in yalls life

 

[Menkeroth]

Indeed. The life is good, we must enjoy it whatever happens. It changes constantly, new challengers arise, but we will prevail after all. Or will die trying.

 

[hairyjeff]

As my Sword instructor used to say " We don't lose. We win, we learn ,or we die. Now, work on numbers 1 and 2. 3's not so hot."

Finally getting around to reading that new Rice novel, Prince Lestat. My mom got it for me last October, and it's been sitting on the shelf for a year. Just about finished it.

 

[Menkeroth]

And how it was going? Worth the time?

 

[Adam_Barrow]

@Menkeroth Pretty good so far. More of a nostalgia bomb than suspenseful page-turner, but it's been cool hearing from these characters for the first time in years and years.

 

[Menkeroth]

I could imagine. When it differs in reading because of time it probably tells you've changed!

 

[Zephyr]

Okay haven't been on for long but only because of good things!
Store is taking off and is no longer costing any money but hauling it in. Had a hefty profit last convention we attended too and if it continues to grow like this I'm going to have a full-time job again soon.

Also, out of the blue, relationship. Still kind of smiling like a dullard wondering WTF happened but I'm not complaining.

Everything seems to be finally falling into place.

 

[Dragonet]

Congratulations Zephyr, revel in your success! But never forget what's best in life...

Crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and hear the lamentation of the women!

 

[Menkeroth]

Aye, that's true. Keep it going despite any obstacles. And Dragonet is right!

 

[Dragonet]

I owe this knowledge to a higher power... Do you know the riddle of steel, Menkeroth?

 

[Menkeroth]

Do I know Conan, you mean? Of course I do. Stories of him and the magnificent film by John Milius are one of my favorites in fantasy. The film with Jason Momoa is good also, though. Do you like Conan either?

 

[Dragonet]

Oh Hell yes! I'm more of a Schwarzenegger film fan, best 2D hero in cinema, but that film is epic.

 

[Menkeroth]

Aye, it's a masterpiece no doubt, for Milius and Basil Poledouris both. Such films are rarely seen these days. Each scene had its own meaning and idea, and philosophical context was immense. It's what I like Conan series for - John Milius clearly grasped the sense behind the Conan's image and the world of Hyboria.

 

[Menkeroth]

Cats are so freaky sometimes!

Shit...just sprayed chocolate milk all over my desk...thanks!

 

[Menkeroth]

Shop in Bonn. Fantastic! A great present before Christmas. And, btw, is anyone in Bonn these days?


This is a state department for magic. Seriously!

 

[Count Vashra]

Yes, that looks impressive! Good find.

 

[Menkeroth]

Aye, a really serious work of a bunch of fantasy geeks. But it's located on the city outskirts amidst the similar houses
