Re: History Lecture Ideas

Re: MU Podcast 063 - Star Spawn of GenCon!
The electric monstrosity - very cool to hear what could be the root of the lightening servant of the Northwest coast legends. They were used by the thunderbird as hunting Spears in their quest for whales.

Your dilettante
Does your dilettante worry about the utterly pedestrian nature of their handgun? Worry not, Tiffany's had them covered. http://www.retronaut.com/2014/09/handguns-decorated-by-tiffany/ http://www.fieldandstream.com/blogs/gun-nuts/2012/03/guns-tiffanys Reminds me slightly of narco bling. Somehow more ...

Re: 1920s Campaign Resources

The Shunned Trailer
I was catching up on my escape pod listening the other day, and what do I hear but a very funny take on the mythos.

Re: Not really Fiction - Scenario musings
I suppose I ought to consider my idea from South America as well. There is a variety of shell called the Spondylus, that is found in graves and ritual contexts through out the Andes.

Re: Not really Fiction - Scenario musings
I really need someone to hold my feet to a fire when it comes to writing stuff down. I just do not do it, despite the ideas percolating in my head.

Re: History Lecture Ideas
Oh I never shared this did I. Roentgenizdat Or Bone Music. During the Cold war when the Soviet Union was at its height, censorship of all forms was undertaken. One way around that for music was the copying of records. However since Vinyl was not easy to get, they came across a cheap and easy way to ...
