		<title>One-Shot thoughts</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My group has a pretty established one-nighter/one-shot/one-off tradition. If someone is out, we play a one-shot. One of our number ran an great one-shot and that got me thinking. So here it is with slight edits for those of you not in my RPG group. Jason&#8217;s Awesome Game: a little analysis Jason&#8217;s one-nighter, a disobedient [...]]]></description>

		<title>Kung-Fu in RPGs</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I took the family to see Kung-Fu Panda 2 yesterday. Man what a great movie. I really love this series. But that got me thinking about kung-fu1 in RPGs. For some reason, connecting the traditional2 back and forth of most RPG combat to &#8220;Western&#8221; melee styles is easier than connecting it to kung-fu. For me [...]]]></description>

		<title>Shock of a Weekday Liturgy</title>
		<description><![CDATA[First a haiku: Scents of Ascension Incense, olive oil, beeswax caught up in my beard It probably isn&#8217;t quite the thing to say this, but I really love weekday liturgies. For one thing, we are almost always celebrating a weekday liturgy because it is a feast. And a feast means different hymns, probably different antiphons. [...]]]></description>

		<title>Iron, Orphans, and Iron</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Iron, Cannons. Cannon, with two Ns. I wish I could come up with a non-smart-ass mnemonic to help people remember that. Anywho&#8230;on Saturday a group boys and parents meet at a grandparents house for a hike, cookout, and cannon shoot! The Grandpa runs a cast-iron shop and collects cannons. On our hike we played in [...]]]></description>

		<title>Utgard, Weight-lifting, Hjaltalín</title>
		<description><![CDATA[1. Paul and I have been reading Norse Myths as told by Kevin Crossley-Holland at bedtime. I have no doubt that it is much, much better than the recent movie about a certain Norse God. The story of Thor&#8217;s trip to Utgard was worth the whole thing. It&#8217;s certainly given us a number of name [...]]]></description>

		<title>Field Trip, Writing, Conan</title>
		<description><![CDATA[One. Paul&#8217;s class took a field trip to the American Museum of Science and Energy in Oak Ridge. Since I work about 5 minutes from there, I met them for lunch. It was cool getting to hang out with him for an hour in the middle of a weekday. It&#8217;s also very instructive/interesting to see [...]]]></description>

		<title>A Species of Melancholy</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My daughter turned 15 a few weeks ago. My, my, how fast they grow. Tonight we went on our birthday dinner to Olive Garden. When we started a few years ago, I told her I&#8217;d take her to Olive Garden on her birthday as long as she&#8217;ll let me. Well, Olive Garden is her choice, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Feliz Cinco de Mayo</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Restart. For a while I adopted a &#8220;three things&#8221; approach to blogging. No matter what, I&#8217;d make a post about three things. It didn&#8217;t really matter what they were. It was mostly an exercise to get writing. I am going to try it again. 1. I have been doing a lot of thinking about my [...]]]></description>

		<title>They are listening</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The kids are listening to what&#8217;s being said/sung/read in church, so be careful where you take them! Paul (age 8 ) and I regularly go to vespers at least once per week (our parish has Daily Vespers on Wednesday evening and Great Vespers on Saturday evening.) As usual, Paul serves in the altar. Since he [...]]]></description>
