After buying the game about a year ago, my boy is finally old enough to have some friends over and play @lightraiders. Hilarity ensued.

Br'er Fox, tired of being outsmarted, built a doll out of tar and turpentine, dressed it up, and set it by the road. Br'er Rabbit comes along and says good morning. The Tar Baby doesn't answer. Rabbit takes that as rudeness, gets angrier, and finally punches it. His fist sticks. He hits it with the other hand, then kicks it, then headbutts it, and soon he's completely stuck. Y’all be punching this tar baby called “boys should read romantasy” but it isn’t worth your time.

As much as I would love to promote my own book, I have to give a shout out to Chuck Black and his War of the Realms series.

Tired of doomerism? This book is a good alternative. You’re far more likely to die from a sedentary lifestyle than a cataclysm. Prep for things you can actually reach, which are likely to happen. In east Tennessee, we watch out for deer, fog, occasional tornadoes, carb loaded cooking, and meth heads in downtown alleyways.

Bullwhip update: I have figured out how much effort it really takes to crack it good. Unfortunately I have also broken the cracker off the fall.

A great book about how his plays helped rehabilitate hardened murderers.

I bought a bullwhip. Because America is the land of the free and I can learn how to do something cool like whip stuff if I want to, and I recently had a birthday. Already made a few overhand cracks and a few oopsies with the back. Stay tuned for more.

Don’t just take my word for it, verified reader BHawk says The Keyes Protocol is a genre-making 5 star read! Thanks for your review.
