I am an unashamed fanboy and this is my blog. If I think its cool, it goes in the blog. I hope to reach a few similarly mutated individuals.

R.I.P. Starlog Ceases Its Print Version
One more dent was put into the memory of my youth when it was announced that the venerable sci-fi movie magazine Starlog would cease its print version and switch to online only. I have very fond memories of studying my issues of Starlog as a kid, my head filling with the joy of movie magic. Wow, I haven't picked up a copy in 20 years, so I suppose that it is partially my fault.
Mea Culpa

Dave Arneson, R.I.P.
Gaming has suffered the loss of another of its patron saints. On April 7th, Dave Arneson, co-creator of Dungeons & Dragons, passed away after suffering from ill health for several years. He suffered a stroke in 2002 and was soon after diagnosed with cancer. He finally lost his battle with cancer, surrounded by his family in St. Paul, Minnesota. Gamers everywhere owe him a certain debt of gratitude for his work. He will be sorely missed.

StarWars.com is offering some very cool summer toys for your little geeklets. I think I am going to get one for my son.
Tauntaun Sleeping Bag - A Cruel Hoax
After tempting us with this totally kick-ass tauntaun shaped sleeping bag, we find out that the whole thing was a cruel hoax perpetrated by those evil geniuses at thinkgeek.com. I would have bought one of these in a second.

Ant Slavery
Apparently Humans are not the only species to practice slavery. There is a species of North American ant that abducts larvae of other species and enslaves them. As with Humans, they face the perils of slave rebellions. There has to be a science fiction story in there somewhere.
