View From the Bushes

Tonight is the legendary family campaign. I switched everything over to Eberron a while ago and so far it's been quite a bit of fun. The biggest issue is that I have seven still relatively inexperienced players so the campaign moves pretty slowly. I need to look into ways of speeding it up. Of course, when I try and hurry things along they just get mad at me for spoiling the social aspect, which for most of them is the primary reason they come -- that and the food. I think, if I'm lucky, having me as a DM probably ranks around tenth.

So I watched the new Episode III trailer. A co-worker had it; I'm not sure where he got it since it's not on the Apple quicktime site (I imagine it will be there soon). It looks really cool, but of course that's never been the problem -- they've all looked really cool. I guess this one is probably going to get a PG-13 rating, and Lucas has said he wouldn't take 5-6 year olds to it. My number one son is going to be disappointed, though I may just take him anyway... how harmful can it be? Of course, later at the trial they'll find this entry and use it to throw me in jail as well.

I find that by the time Friday rolls around my blogging energy has mostly been depleted. Of course most of you will argue that I never had any blogging energy, and to you I say, "I have never listened to anyone who criticized my taste in space travel, sideshows or gorillas. When this occurs, I pick up my dinosaurs and leave the room."
