Per Usual: Images and links are from Lexicanum or the Warhammer 40k wiki   So last week we went over the Psi-Titans, nasty bunch which rarely let witnesses live, the week I thought we could take a look at another race's weapon of mass destruction.  And I decided to do the Orks, of course the

Last time, I presented to you the list of nominees along with my picks for the winners. It's time to find out how well I did. I don't want this post to be War and Peace long, so I'll simply recap my pick, announce the winner, and provide commentary and a

Do not worry. I am not treading on Horatio's turf. I do enough of that with my AVN Awards prediction post. You will get no insights into which player each team is picking beyond me telling you that the Commanders are getting yet another disappointing USC QB and the Steelers will

So, as we mentioned last week, Christmas Eve, or Gigsmas. A time to play all the things. Sometimes, if you're lucky, you have multiple all the things to play, which is to say give your local church organist a hug and/or the beverage of their choice (okay, I got my

Good evening. My name is Senor Weaselo, and as some of you know, I play a lot of Jewish events. Weddings, shows, other, you name it. Despite this, as the Lubovitch have found out in disbelief numerous times when they ask if I want to partake in various religious customs and

Hello hello. Happy Holidays, which I wish earnestly. Not everybody celebrates Christmas, but nobody is clear from its tornado of consumerism and reliculous traditions. Stores get crowded, traffic gets worse and everywhere you go, there it is, again: Xmas music, melodious browbeating of JESUS, BUY, CHRIST, PAY, LORD and so

Ahoy-yoy!   I realized I never did a Stillers bye week report, but who cares. They're 7-6, will never beat the Patriots in any meaningful way, the offensive is broken to hell, and are somehow in currenth #6th seed. Tomlin Voodoo is real, ya'll. Just accept this. This season has been so

The Bears Bye Week isn't until Week 13 this year, which seems almost cruel given how much Bearsenscheisse we've witnessed this season (both the self inflicted and cruel twists of injury fate kind). So why not recap the year to date in song. Maybe get in the right mood/cadence with
