Today was a LONG day at work. I have to admit that I was watching the clock from the very first moment. Thus, it seemed the hands of the clock weren't moving, so that wasn't helping at ALL.Not that I wanted to leave work, mind you. But I was watching the clock to see what time my next victim was clocking in.Yes, April 1st is MY holiday. And I celebrated it in full glory this year.In no particular order...Our manager is pretty lenient on people clocking in "late".

Dungeons & Dragons was released a generation ago and quickly became a national craze. I must admit that I was amongst those who spent their Friday and Saturday nights hacking, slashing, picking pockets and throwing fireballs from our fingertips instead of going out with the fairer sex. To explain how obsessive we were, the group I rolled dice with beat the creator of D&D to getting the monsters manual published by six months. Granted, ours was in a loose binder instead of bound in a hardback book, but still...Fairly quickly D&D, or more accurately AD&D by this time, had a slew of imitators. One of them was a sci-fi themed game called Paranoia. Though it was certainly a RPG, our group transformed it into the ANTI-role-playing game. Most RPGs stressed teamwork. But Paranoia was set up to... Read more »
