Tim Posted November 1, 2012 Report Share Posted November 1, 2012 Re: Musings on Random Musings NO, NO, NO. To go to a vampire ball, you have to dress up as a CHEESY VAMPIRE. (read your Dresden) Of course then you end up starting a war. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SatinKitty Posted November 1, 2012 Report Share Posted November 1, 2012 Re: Musings on Random Musings We had a Nightlife Hero game tonight where I was turned into a vampire. I'm a strong, powerful one so this campaign looks promising. In this campaign, vampires have no fangs, just sharp teeth. Even so, it is better to bite the arm rather than the neck. Ever try to bite a flat surface ? Human teeth and Vampire fangs curve, so the only way to bite someone's neck would be to pinch a tiny bit of skin between your side teeth. You just get a mouthful of flesh that way, no blood. Another cool Super Power ruined by science. Anyway, the Villains tonight were wearing Richard Nixon masks. My character's Sire was their target. I simply got in the way. My Sire had to let me die, or turn me. He asked first. That's the rules. Now my Character must go to "college" and figure out how she will feed, animals or humans and what powers she has and how they work. Then there is the kicker of what to tell the Parents. I think this will be great ! Happy Halloween ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Man Posted November 3, 2012 Report Share Posted November 3, 2012 Re: Musings on Random Musings I didn't know skin color mattered in politics. Obviously it does, but I was thinking more along cosplay lines. A white liar in a suit would not look like Obama to me, and your description of your costume didn't mention blackface.

SteveZilla Posted November 3, 2012 Report Share Posted November 3, 2012 Re: Musings on Random Musings Okay. Obviously I was being satirical as a rebuttal to two others who chose to bring politics into this thread in a negative and insulting manner. But now I am curious why you state that skin color does matter in politics? I thought politics was about policy and issues, things IMO far deeper and more important than the level of melanin in a person's skin.

Not on the boards as far as I can tell, but there are plenty of real life examples.

lemming Posted November 3, 2012 Report Share Posted November 3, 2012 Re: Musings on Random Musings My wife has made 100s of this recipe: (She doesn't put the nuts on, hence the ick comment) Brownies from 365 Great Chocolate Desserts by Natalie Haughton Without a doubt - the best brownies ever. Very chocolatey, not very sweet. Ingredients: 5 (1 oz) square unsweetened chocolate, cut up 2 sticks butter 1 3/4 C sugar (I only use 1 1/2C) 1/4 C light corn syrup 2 tsp. vanilla 4 eggs 1/4 tsp salt 1 C sifted flour 3/4 C chopped pecans (I NEVER use nuts) 1 C semisweet chocolate chips 1. Preheat oven to 350F. In a 2 quart glass bowl, combine unsweetened chocolate and butter. Heat in a microwave oven on High for 1 1/2 to 2 1/2 minutes, or until chocolate is melted and smooth when stirred. 2. with a fork, beat in sugar, corn syrup, vanilla and eggs until well blended. Mix in salt and flour until well mixed. 3. Spread evenly in a greased, foil lined (and I grease the foil as well) 9 X 13 inch baking pan. Sprinkle nuts (ick) and chocolate chips over top. Bake 30 - 35 minutes, or until set. Do not overbake. Let cool before cutting into bars. (What I do - when they're cool, life the whole thing out by the foil, and then cut. You can then sort of peel them off the foil. Much easier.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
