Saw Roosevelt Dime, in concert last night and they were great. Definitely a different sound, check out the samples on their site.

Also an interesting article written in response to Newsweek's cover about historical perspective, found via [info]andrewducker.

The thunderstorms we’ve been dodging since going on vacation finally caught up to us today, so I thought I’d write up our adventures so far. Much of this trip has been visiting family and showing [info]zammis some of the schlocky midwest tourist places I remember from being a kid.

Ohio, Chicago, Wisconsin, full travel report and picture links are under the cut )

Sorry I haven't been posting much real content lately, I blame Skyrim and Game of Thrones (I'll just leave that icon up in the corner there).

This weekend I'll be at GCOM Games Days over near Baltimore, hope to see some of you there.

After that [info]zammis and I are taking a road trip through the Midwest. Currently it looks like:

May 1 - Tiffin, Ohio
May 2 - Chicago
May 3,4 - Baraboo, Wisconsin - pilgrimage to House on the Rock and Circus World.
May 5,6 - Chicago
May 7 - Muskegon, Michigan
May 8 - Tiffin, Ohio

Game of Thrones had a character take an arrow to the knee. I was amused. Also, a geek.
