Just recently, my buddy Sheldon made a post about Islam and women. Here ya go, Shel. Click Here for more great videos and pictures! A religion of tolerance. A religion of peace. ___ Okay, snarky time over. When the anti-D&D bullshit came up, Mike Stackpole said something brilliant. (Not unusual for Mike Stackpole.) He said,…
Twenty thousand words this weekend. I got a lot done. The domain system is nearly finished and I worked through most of the sorcery system.
