My Life is One Giant To-Do List

Actually, several lists I guess. At least it seems that way, and all of you out there are probably not much different.

Of course there are the required to-do lists like things I have to get finished at work, stuff to do around the house, the list of items for the next trip grocery shopping etc. Beyond that though it seems like there are several other lists that I've always got hovering about. Phone calls I need to make, things I need to do "sometime", and of course all of my hobby lists.

I have a lot of hobbies, so I divide my time up between a lot of projects. That means that everything seems to move along slowly, glacially or not at all. Inspiration, free time and motivation all factor into the equation as well...and as much as I'd like to claim that I'm good at motivating myself, that's only true when the inspiration is at a reasonable level. If I'm not fired up about something in my hobby world, it just isn't going to happen.

Even my little blog is a great big to-do list. I have around 20 articles in draft format, just waiting for models to get finished so that I can take photos of them and finally post them up for all the folks on the interwebs to see.

I should have at least two new things going up before the end of the week. More stuff to cross off of my giant to-do list. What's on yours?

Farewell Ozzy!

This afternoon I found out that the Prince of Darkness, Ozzy Osbourne, has passed away. Although I've been a fan since my early teens, I am surprised at how strong my reaction to the news has been. I had missed out on catching the Black Sabbath farewell show a few weeks back during live stream, so I've not yet seen it. A friend of mine told me about a few days after, and I'm looking forward to watching it when it becomes available. I've had the good fortune of seeing Ozzy perform twice; once at an outdoor stadium show with Zakk Wylde on guitar, and once with Black Sabbath several years later. I remember more about the experience of those shows than the specific details, and could not tell you set lists or anything like that. His impact on music and pop culture, both as a member of Black Sabbath and a solo artist simply cannot be understated. As impactful and important as that is, it also hits me that his children have lost their father, which happened to me at the end o...

Errata Discussion

Here's my first-ever joint article! Thanks to Scott Mooney for providing counter-point to my ramblings. Following the release of Marvel Universe and Marvel Evolution there has been a lot of discussion among our player group (and online) about the powers of certain cards, both in terms of sheer power and in terms of wording. I'm sure most of you are familiar with the debate brought on by the 3-cost, Exiles-affiliated Blink. We'll not be discussing that particular card today, but rather some other combinations you may or may not have thought of. Scott has built a very deadly Starjammers/X-Factor/X-Men deck that takes advantage of discard effects and Energize to lead to an amazing turn 7 combo using Cyclops, Astonishing X-Man and Havok, Proud Son. This combo can stun an opponent's board if they are unable to pay the discard required by Havok's ability. It is especially dangerous in a multi-player format and brought up some thoughts on designer intent versus the ...
