Wrongo. Look, the "Greek empire" under Alexander started over 300 years before Jesus was born. It collapsed within a generation of Alexander's death, although pieces hung on for a bit (it was split in four chunks, one for each son...I *think* the Egyptian bit held out longest but I'm not certain). B...

OK, one more then to finish RH off :). I had the littler guy at the park one day. He goes romping up to the biggest dog there, a German Shep of about 60lbs and (I soon learned) about 8 months old. As usual, the dog had no idea what to make of this bounding little thing, but he soon realized it was p...

"I've heared their more prone to biting if you hand feed them at an early age" Completely false. The issue is that you have to spend a lot of time with them esp. when they're little, cuddle 'em a lot, and when they play-bite too hard snap 'em gently on the nose and say "NO" in a firm tone - and then...

AOD is "technically a sequel" to Evil Dead (and yes, the last one) but the disconnect is so sharp that you do NOT need to see anything prior to AOD.

ED2 is a remake of basically the same flick as ED1. So there's really TWO parts to the "series" (loosely labeled) and the first one is seldom seen.

The mistake people make with ferts involves cages. Basically, people think they've got something like a gerbil on their hands. NOT! My guys never knew what a cage was. My brother's two were the same way. The ones we raised did NOT bite, ever, unless it was in self defense and even then their degree ...

No, the one thing a fert will NOT do is poop in bed. Both the guys were actually pretty good about using the litterbox. One night we got a cold spell come through. The guys normally slept in my bed and that wasn't a problem. Even though it hit barely above freezing for a week or so, we didn't have a...

Hmmmm. <scratcheshead> Yeah...I think you're right. Long as Colin doesn't play with 'em in the meantime :). Sick thought: I used to find one of my ferrets asleep in my boot all the time. Go to put it on, feel something squishy in there, dig him out and tell him to go find another bed. Can you imagin...

No he didn't.

OK, look at the last panel. Look at the boot on the right.

This is Quenyn *using* the boots in full-tilt-boogie turbo mode and *launching*. Ralph is showing him wooshing outta there and this time I'm sure I'm right: Quentyn isn't leaving in bare feet.

Easily solved. Stick her in a dress :P. I don't want to think about what sort of hide she'd use as a handbag though...probably pink skinned or grey furred...

Heh. Sure. A female of one of them thar upright crocs from the swamp :). "I knew this was gonna be a big case, 'cuz she was a mighty big girl.

A Questor seems more like a PI than anything else. Ralph oughta do a sub-plot some time down the road in parody "noir style", black and white, with Qentin as a short bushy-tailed Mickey Spillane type. Have him set up the crossbow so it can be fired twice by going with slightly less than half the cur...

Another thought: Quentin is right-handed (errr..."pawed"?) and carries a sword slung baldric-style for the right hand (grip over right shoulder). Dunno where he carries that "lux-powered submachine-bow"...small of back IWB maybe? (Sorry, that's "Inside Waist Band", shirt over it for concealment...Ra...

The quality of the "bread mold salve" would vary depending on how rigorously they made it. If they had isolated a single strain of mold that worked and made sure that was the only one involved, might be pretty good stuff. These guys have a very scientific approach to a lot of things, starting with L...

It's a good bet they have "oil lamp technology" - either the lamps, or the ability to make them. They've got glass dishes, cooking oil and understand candles.

Basically, I think the only thing has to be spread around town is the basic intel on how to deal with these things.

"You USED to think me beautiful!" "Baby, you got REAAAAL ugly!" Oh yeah. AbsolUTEly one of THE modern classics. Two good ones came out just last year, if you're a fan of that sort of twisted humor. "Team America" is a MUST see if only to watch Michael Moore blow up. And "Sean Of The Dead" is by far ...

If there's such a thing as "Sanctuary PD", they prolly have SOME clue as to how to deal with magical threats. Heck, they've probably got a SWAT team that's half wizard :). Do recall that the improvised search'n'rescue team put together to find that kit in the swamp had a wizard along. Lux-powered th...
