Free Tibet?

Some of you may have heard about these riots in Tibet against the Chinese government. There's a guy in my building who's hard core for Free Tibet and Radiohead, so I've certainly hard about it. I'm not sure what to think. Maybe if the Chinese government hadn't sold out to the capitalists, they wouldn't have these problems. They should go back to being communists instead of nationalists, or fascists, or whatever the heck they are now.

I hope this doesn't interfere with the Olympics. I'm really looking forward to the synchronised swimming this year.

20-sided death

Today, intelligent people everywhere will mourn the passing of one of the great persons of our time, Gary Gygax. Gygax, for you philistines out there, was the inventor of Dungeons & Dragons. Many's the hour I spent whiling away the days of my youth with his ingenious game. I bought a pair of fuzzy 20-sided dice in tribute, but i can't figure out where to hang them on my Segway.

Farewell, Dungeonmaster...may all your rolls be natural 20's.
