From the Dungeon to the Dictionary - What a fascinating site! See? D&D is good for expanding your vocabulary. Is there nothing it can't do? (Well, yeah, but I was making a point for comic effect here.)

Unknown Armies. Ein Rollenspiel um Macht und Konsequenzen - Home Cool cover, the German version of UA.
I Am A: Neutral Good Half-Elf Ranger Fighter

Alignment:
Neutral Good characters believe in the power of good above all else. They will work to make the world a better place, and will do whatever is necessary to bring that about, whether it goes for or against whatever is considered 'normal'.

Race:
Half-Elves are a cross between a human and an elf. They are smaller, like their elven ancestors, but have a much shorter lifespan. They are sometimes looked down upon as half-breeds, but this is rare. They have both the curious drive of humans and the patience of elves.

Primary Class:
Rangers are the defenders of nature and the elements. They are in tune with the Earth, and work to keep it safe and healthy.

Secondary Class:
Fighters are the warriors. They use weapons to accomplish their goals. This isn't to say that they aren't intelligent, but that they do, in fact, believe that violence is frequently the answer.

My comments: Okay, I get neutral good and half-elf. I don't get Ranger. That definition sounds more like a druid than a ranger.

Word to road crews: Tuscaloosa is over 1,000 miles thataway - The Boston Globe - Boston.com - Local - News - and it's really sad that people didn't notice. Or don't know the shape of Alabama. Heck, I know the shape of Massachusetts!
The Official Geek Test - I scored 1075 on this one, which makes me a Level 5 geek. Was there ever any doubt?

Thanks to Steve Jackson's Daily Illuminator for a great new word: "Apophenia -- Seeing connections in meaningless or unconnected data."

Which, of course, begs the question: Is any data really meaningless or unconnected?
