A couple of the blogs I follow were doing this. (Though they seem idle/dead now.)<br /><br />Ancient Astronauts (http://ancientastronautspbp.blogspot.ca/) and Spaceswords & Glory (http://spaceswordsandglory.blogspot.ca/) are at least two that I can recall.Joshuahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10009433185355976238noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2931960748185298707.post-81408931282190893712012-03-20T06:53:59.347-07:002012-03-20T06:53:59.347-07:00I shall get my thinking cap on and see what happen...I shall get my thinking cap on and see what happens?

If all else fails, we 'old timers'...Joshua,<br /><br />If all else fails, we 'old timers' in the blogosphere could rally together and hobble something rpg-like to tide us over those cold, wet wind-swept nights of rpg lonliness.<br /><br />Do I sound like a sad old git? lol!<br /><br />But seriously - it's a thought worthy of consideration. We've all the right people around us who share the same passion, no travel excuses to contend with, no bouts of horrendous flatulence to assault one's senses, definitely no making of teas, coffees or supplying munchies, and no tedious clearing up after the session is done.<br /><br />What say you, my brother-in-arms?Mark Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13002166292175980928noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2931960748185298707.post-90392714320262830612012-03-19T02:29:04.122-07:002012-03-19T02:29:04.122-07:00Quite possibly that is what I'll be seeing in ...Quite possibly that is what I'll be seeing in the years to come. But after all, that's what children are for! How else does our genus keep living if not to irrevocably screw our spawn with our lifestyles?

We carried on, but you miss the familiar phrases, the corny jokes and one-liners, but moreover, you miss the person and their character.<br /><br />My group is now no more. I've tried with fresh players, but it is never the same. I think we just have to accept the fact that getting older, growing apart, developing lives outside of our gaming circle and leaving the dice nestled in their box never to see the light of day is a fate that awaits us all, sooner or later.Mark Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13002166292175980928noreply@blogger.com
