    Outlander.

    Yeah, it was a interesting spin on the Beowulf thing. Cavisiel added some depth unexpected for a direct to DVD film. Some of the scenes cut from the beginning should've been left in IMHO.

    Knives

    Fratt, that 3rd knife, is that a Swedish Mora? I've got a 50? year old one just like it. (Not as good condition though)

    urban decay galleries

    http://reliques.online.fr/ Through CNN (Time), I found a couple of good galleries here on wasteland-style decay in Detroit and Eastern Germany. There's just something fascinating about this kind of imagery to me. Might be some interesting references if you're doing game design.

    PA film "9"

    Looks like some interesting visual design in this Tim Burton post-apoc film called "9". It will be based on a 2005 short film by Shane Acker. http://9themovie.com/splash/

    Bonefire recreational flamethrower

    Not that there's any propane in the wasteland, but this was interesting in how it was assembled from various parts. http://www.wired.com/culture/culturereviews/magazine/17-01/st_flameguy Something disturbing about the video though. hmm... Oh, "BONE-fire". I get it now.

    I look at "Trading Post" and dream that it is a screenshot of a Fallout sequel that I'll get to play some day.

    Wasteland transportation - sailcars?

    Sailcars, windracers, dirtboats, etc. Have we discussed this before? I read about these guys racing across the Gobi desert in Mongolia and thought hmmmm... RaidMongolia desert race Though rather obscure, it does have some history. Of course, you'd have to jury-rig such a thing in the...

    [BoS writing contest]Brotherhood of Steel – Eastern Division

    Brotherhood of Steel – Eastern Division Log of the Second Exodus War may not change, but organizations do. They grow and shrink, fracture and reform. None more so than those created by "true believers" in whatever cause they pursue. It is those fervent beliefs that give such human...

    Gary Gygax is dead

    An AP report says Mr. Gygax died this morning at his home. He was 69. You should know who he was, but if not, the creator of D&D and really p&p RPG's in general. We all know what that led to. http://www.cnn.com/2008/TECH/03/04/obit.gygax.ap/index.html No mention of our game, but we'll...
