Tomorrow Is Yesterday





Just taking a moment this morning to acknowledge a little personal achievement...

Tomorrow, Saturday the 25th of August, 2012, celebrates 35 years of involvement in the pastime of Role Playing Games for yours truly.

I don't really have much more to say on the subject just now. I don't even think tomorrow will be as much of a celebration as I'd like, since I don't really have anything prepared and a good portion of those I wish could participate won't be there.

Oh well, any game is better than no game at all.

Cheers, Barking Alien fans and those who can here accidently thinking there was free food. I will be thinking of you all as I game tomorrow.

An additional note of very sad news...

 



Jerry Nelson, actor, musican and Muppets puppeteer has passed away. I can't even begin to tell you how sorry I was to read this only moments ago and how big a fan I am of Mr. Nelson's work and talent. Jerry Nelson was, especially earlier in his career, a musican foremost and was brought in to the Muppets fold for his singing and musical ability. His most notable Muppet performances include Floyd Pepper of the Muppet Show and Count Von Count from Sesame Street.

This link leads to a previous post from my month of Muppet RPG madness showing Jerry Nelson at his best as Scred from the SNL 'Land of Gorch' sketches, singing with the also awesomely talented Lily Tomlin.

One. One Wonderful Person. Ah-ah-ah-ah.

  1. I still want to know what one does in a Muppets RPG? Sounds awesome.

    1. I'm telling ya Matt, do yourself a favor and read the month of March 2011 on this blog site. You'll be glad you did.

      Or try following the Muppets tag of topics. I do have some session reports from previous games.

  2. Man, Jerry Nelson was relatively unsung, but he definitely was one of the titans of Muppetry.
