It's actually based on a world and campaign setting that people created for D&D which is known as the Forgotten Realms or Faerun if you prefer... Geek

Dungeons and Dragons isn't a computer game actually. It's a roleplaying game you play with friends in a basement on paper with dices, maps and all. Wink

It sounds nerdy but it's pretty cool.

I actually have a scheduled game for tonight. It's the first time I'm playing in years. Smile

RIP in bossa nova heaven.

To the common folks I'm probably a dork. But not as much as I used to be. I haven't touched a computer game in years. So I voted no Embarrassed


You've just had a heavy session of electroshock therapy, and you're more relaxed than you've been in weeks.

I probably am a dork, but it depends on who you ask. I prefer being described as "weird" or "mad" though.

Maybe a dork is someone who listens to 100% Prog and has no time for other music genres<img

The link you gave me regarding 10 CC:
 

Two's company, four's a crowd

Graham Gouldman and Eric Stewart tell Geoff Brown how 10cc are faring now as a duo

Dorking is a respectable suburban town nestling in the Surrey countryside. Its richer inhabitants commute to London five days a week; those who stay out of the metropolis are generally employed in industries and trades whose sole purpose is servicing the homes of the rich while they're in the big city.

LOL

 
 
 
Does this make Stewart and Gouldman dorks?????????????
let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter
keep our sand-castle virtues
content to be a doer
as well as a thinker,
prefer lifting our pen
rather than un-sheath our sword
