The midwest repressive? I'm about 300 miles south and let me tell you. These are some of the most uptight, sexually frustrated people to walk the earth. The sight of cleaveage causes aneurisms.

Dude, just some friendly advice. No, I'm not going to hold it against you. I never played myself and not really sure why as I was heavy into Tolkien and Frank Herbert and most fantasy novels I could get my hands on at the time. Actually I had a next door neighbor who was way into it and he was always wanting me to come over and play. The guy creeped me out bigtime. Now that's probably why I didn't play. Nonetheless, I tend to equate D&D with guys like him. I'm sure you are not. Just my hangup, I guess. Don't take it personally.

I haven't played in 25+ years, so I don't.

I used to play too, but it's been 11 years or so for me as well.

It's just a wee bit south of Omaha, probably 20 miles or so to the edge of the city. Nice small town of about 7k people.

VWBR's interpretation:
1. I've never been that thin
2. I feel like the dog drank the beer and is getting sick
3. She'd be better off with a type IV powered bus
4. That dude has some strong legs
5. I've tried to get my bus at that angle from leg lifts with no success
6. A piece of chrome trim is missing from the right side
7. Yes, I Wood Hit it
8. Wasn't there another IAC home page?

For the Hoosiers in the house, you will all know the controversy that this photo mosaic has caused. I see nothing wrong with it, but some knuckleheads see the Klan in the background and suddenly become offended. In 1929, the Klan was in Indiana- unfortunate to say, but it was a part of our history. Each semester, there is a speaker who allows comments to be made. The photo depicts Indiana's heritage, right or wrong.

Bloomington is being ruined slowly but surely by knuckleheads.

that was once home to the Klan, as well as Moorseville. It's taken a long time to erase what was done in the past. This is why I prefer Bloomington because of it's diversity- much like on this forum. Many different people with different experiences.

My town has a racist reputation as well... in no small part to the now-renamed Kass Kounty King Korn Karnival, or the penta-K. It used to just be the King Korn Karnival.

Speaking of road signs, I liked "Diesel Fried Chicken"
