Your lucky my boss is a full on Matron Mothers servant of Lolth in all her glory. It would be cool if she wasn't so inept her house would have been crushed ages ago. |

| -There, I had an unintentional slip up today. On the boards, I was discussing something with someone, and the topic drifted towards religion, and when I was typing "Non-Jews", I originally began 'N'Tel'Jews'. Funny. |

Not really. I've been pondering getting a (non-FR alas) Horde tattoo for a few years now. |

Well, I think that all depends on one's attitude about getting a tattoo. For some people, it's just a matter of course. For others, it is a big deal. |

| I'm so used to it that I forgot about it but as sad as this is I have you all beat lol. Me and my sisters used the drow name generator to develop a sure name then legally changed our last name. So my last name is Drowic lol. Been that way for about a year now it's funny listening to people try and pronounce it as well as trying to guess a nationality from it. |

And I thought I was bad... 
The worst I've done is when a show about the Mongols was coming on the History Channel one night, and I mentioned to my sister I wanted to watch the program "about the Tuigan".
She looked at me funny, and then I realized what I said, and I just told her that was an alternate name for the Mongols. 
Oh... and at the end of Apocalypto, when the Spanish were offshore, I was actually looking for Cordell's Drow companion.. and then I realized it was Cortez.
But I swear, for a moment there, I got the RW world history mixed-up with the highly-derivitive Maztican one. |

I do recall just before John, my firstborn, came into the world that soemone suggested that "Khelben Krashos" was a cool name. Indeed it is, but not cool enough for my wife ...

-I did something like that yesterday, actually. I was at the bookstore, and had in my hand a book about Mongolian history. I said something to my sister, she replied, and then I replied back, "Yeah, that that's because when Yamun Khan sent messengers there, they insulted him." I kind of paused for a moment. She didn't pick up anything, not knowing much about the setting. |

I've read almost all FR published novels and a few stories in the anthologies. There are some I avoid though---the elfy and Manshoony ones. |
