Setting is alternate timeline 1300's Earth.  Dr. Theory in outer Jupiter orbit has made a super weapon that will turn earth into a small star.  Too late!  Only a few escape in an arc.  They discover secret colony of earthlings living under Dr. Theroy's rule near Jupiter.  They've been told Earth's gvt. was developing the weapon and it backfired.  Main cast gets in a fight with Dr. Theory's ship.  missiles on delayed fuse bury into transparent part of fusilodge then detonate a second later.

Idea: was Dr. Theory telling the truth?  Does main cast learn that they're working for villains?  Scene where horse and wagons are followed by sci-fi war machines at world gvt meeting.  One young delegate says to mentor "i don't like speaking with pure evil."  mentor: "enter the mind through the ear lest you enter the belly through the mouth."  "you don't really think one man could be such a threat do you?"

scene in archives with ppl shredding documents before earth is destroyed.

Scene I:  Ambush.  Com jam.  Reward for survive.  Infodump.  Stranded due to damaged ship / ships are being shot down.

Woohoo!  I am now officially a master weaver!  I know I'm a master because Redelent Rose, senior master of the weaver's guild, bequeathed me a Clotho, a very advanced weaver's tool I'd never even heard of before taking up the craft.  Well let me tell you there's a reason this thing isn't put in the hands of amateurs.  It looks like an astrologist's chart or something.  I'll not bore you with the reasons for all the cryptic markings on it, but suffice to say I'm eager to put all of its many bells and whistles to use.  But burning the midnight-till-6am oil to finish up an urgent commission wiped me out.

Said commission wasn't as urgent as the final task the carpentry guild master entrusted to me, namely save his friend's life with a masterwork bow to replace the old worn out one he broke.  Sure, I was tempted to simply slay the buzzards that had his squad pinned down with my own legendary bow, but that would feel too much like rubbing his nose in his failure.  I say failure because he was warned repeatedly that his bow was going to break.  I know how it is, being so busy you neglect your gear for a bit, but deliberately refusing to get your favorite bow fixed or retired for an upgrade is just beyond reckless.  Seems he learned his lesson, albeit the hard way, so an added lecture from me would have only done more harm than good.  So I just delivered the bow, threw a few cures at him and his crew, and let them fight themselves out of the sorry position he'd put them all in.

It was kinda nice to have a less life-or-death situation with that final weaver commission, but I found myself about equally exhilarated to once again have a silly person's future placed into my hands.  There was no agreement not to talk about why the customer so desperately needed masterwork clothes, but I feel somewhat obligated to not mention that without them he wouldn't have worked up the courage to confess his feelings to the high society woman he'd fallen for.  Sweet girl, but her outfit was ridiculous looking, so he didn't have much to worry about from her in the way of fashion sense.  That said, I don't feel I'm under any obligation whatsoever to not mention that I was proud of him for standing up to the abusive Nimrod who was about to smack the girl, and at the same time enraged at said Nimrod.  Once again, I was tempted to step in, but as much as I would have loved to give the Nimrod a taste of his own medicine, in the end non-intervention was once again the best approach for the sake of the people I'm trying to help.  Though if X ever makes good on his parting threats, I'll be more than happy to show him that the quiet weaver standing behind her customer is a terrible force to be reckoned with.

Note to self.  Craft a wooden Paddle of Justice!  And maybe a quiver full of boxing glove tipped Arrows of Humiliation.

Why didn't they shoot down the escape pod that R2 and C3PO were on?  "No life form.  Must have been a short."
Droids weren't memory wiped when taken by the Jawas.  Going opposite directions, R2 and C3 wind up on same sand crawler.  What about the tracks left in the sand by the droids for the troopers to follow.
The red R2 had a bad motivator.
Why did Obiwan not change his last name?
Achademy for rebellion recruits on tatooine?
Greedo's missed shot.  Was that TK?

Death Star:
Whole pile of troops around Milenium falcon in one scene, only 2 in next.
Clone troopers all same size and voice.  How did Han and Luke succeed their disguises.
The transmissions to/from C3PO weren't jammed.
The troopers turn to run after han blasts just one.  Were they ordered to regroup?
Tai fighters did terrible job, and some didn't even shoot.

Battle of Yavin:
Some reason the Tai's weren't deployed before the x-wings arrived, and there were very few of them when they did.  Were the sensors jammed on the death star?  "There's too much interference."
Why did 2nd TIE crash into Vader's?

Sales Pitch

Running around in Revenent's Toll running quests to help sick orphans or whatever when I notice this Galka, erm, Rogadin eyeing me.

"Excuse me, ma'm," he called out when he noticed I'd noticed him, "Would you happen to be a master craftsman?"

Don't know how he knew.  Maybe word gets around.

"I happen.  Who's asking?"

"My name is Guiding Star..."

I stifled a chuckle.  Sounded like a magical pony's name or something.  But now I'm wishing I had a magical pony name.

"...and I have a proposition."

He went on to tell me he was looking to admire master crafting tools.  So I showed him my most recent aquisition.

"Everything I expected, but not more than I expected."

He then told me that I should talk to the man next to him about getting my hands on an even better master tool.  Annoying!  Like seriously, I've grown accustomed to the mosquito-like buzz of opportunistic sales Mammets that message me with million gil sales if I'll only visit their magic public bulletin board.  Obvious trap.  I wasn't born yesterday.  I just blacklist them.  But this guy takes spam to a new level and specifically targets new master crafters.

But I didn't have to touch any dangerous trap scrolls to investigate, so I talked with his co-hort.  He was an arrogant, abrasive shmuck, but I have to admit his wares were tempting...  till I looked at the prices.  I'd have to spend hundreds of thousands of gil, millions even, just for the materials to craft the things he wanted to "trade" for his high-end crafting tools and recipes.  Now I understood.  This was actually a legitimate business, albeit waaay overpriced due to being a monopoly, and not really a scam.

It was an easy decision to tell him to shove his tools where the sun don't shine, but now that I've seen them...  I'm going to be dreaming about Legendary craftsman's tools now, aren't I?  Why can't I just slay a bunch of monsters for them like I did earning my Zenith bow?

[9:42][FC]<Strom B.> so yeah did you get my messages on mumble last night?
[9:44][FC]<Mittens T.> um.  nop.
[9:44][FC]<Mittens T.> nope*
[9:45][FC]<Strom B.> ah ok.
[9:45][FC]<Strom B.> well... the gist of it was, i'm starting to get very frustrated with nina
[9:45][FC]<Mittens T.> oh yea?
[9:46][FC]<Mittens T.> blablablablabla?
[9:46][FC]<Strom B.> that's a big part of it yeah
[9:46][FC]<Mittens T.> i'm listenin.
[9:47][FC]<Strom B.> but it's also the fact that he p much expects everyone else to hold his hand through everything and doesn't do any legwork himself
[9:47][FC]<Strom B.> there's a point to where we can answer a couple questions, then there's a point where you go open chrome and use the wondrous tool known as google
[9:47][FC]<Mittens T.> orlly?
9:47][FC]<Mittens T.> ah.
[9:48][FC]<Mittens T.> not sure if it was nina, but i think i snapped at someone.  "look it up"
[9:48][FC]<Mittens T.> mighta been tim.
[9:49][FC]<Strom B.> and having a high level cart you around grinding xp and leves is just lazy imo
[9:49][FC]<Mittens T.> heh.

[9:50][FC]<Mittens T.> part of the reason i posted about "we're shifting our focus"
[9:50][FC]<Strom B.> like, i'm cool running a dungeon w someone if they need the clear, but dedicating 2-4 hours to them without it actually being productive in any way for me is a waste of my precious gaming time
[9:50][FC]<Mittens T.> was to get that kinda idea across.  "we're looking for givers, not takers."
[9:50][FC]<Mittens T.>  /agree
[9:51][FC]<Mittens T.> speaking of ppl who need hand holding...
[9:51][FC]<Mittens T.> holy and kitau failed stonehold vigil last night
[9:51][FC]<Strom B.> :) you guys need some help with that?
[9:51][FC]<Mittens T.> after u went 2 bed.  we tried and tried.  boss kept killing us.
[9:51][FC]<Strom B.> yeah dodging is v important lol
[9:51][FC]<Mittens T.> we determined holy needs more levels.  breath weapon 1 shots him.
[9:52][FC]<Mittens T.> and the breath weapon is undodgable.
[9:52][FC]<Strom B.> is his gear allright?
[9:52][FC]<Mittens T.> idk.  haven't had time 2 check this mornin
[9:52][FC]<Strom B.> ok that's most likely the issue
[9:53][FC]<Mittens T.> if memory serves he's been wearing that chest piece since the 30's
[9:53][FC]<Strom B.> yeeeeaaahhh......
[9:53][FC]<Mittens T.> my memory sux tho.
[9:53][FC]<Mittens T.> back to your topic, i agree.
[9:53][FC]<Mittens T.> 50's should get something in return
[9:53][FC]<Mittens T.> ty for your generosity so far.
[9:54][FC]<Strom B.> it's to the point where his voice is eliciting a disgust response from me
[9:54][FC]<Mittens T.> tim made fun of the accent so i can't help but laugh inside every time i hear him.  :x
[9:55][FC]<Mittens T.> you ever seen "caveman"? with ringo starr?
[9:55][FC]<Strom B.> i mean there's also the fact that he's too busy yapping to listen when we give him instructions and ends up doing stupid crap in dungeons
[9:55][FC]<Strom B.> and no
[9:56][FC]<Mittens T.> (still giggling)
[9:56][FC]<Mittens T.> was going to draw a comparison.
[9:56][FC]<Mittens T.> also, /agree.
[9:56][FC]<Mittens T.> at the very start i told him, "mind for whm"
[9:57][FC]<Mittens T.> "nah i'll go int"
[9:57][FC]<Strom B.> and then just flat out refusing to do stuff we tell him to because i dunno reasons
[9:57][FC]<Mittens T.> later: "i shoulda gone mind!"
[9:58][FC]<Mittens T.> thanks for letting me know.  i plan to post a "not naming names," diplomatic post on website about founders' expectations.
[9:59][FC]<Mittens T.> i know you're a better writer than me, so if you wanted to bang out a quick blurb in a few minutes, i would be happy to be your mouthpiece.
[9:59][FC]<Strom B.> frank makes a good point
[9:59][FC]<Mittens T.> oh yea?
[10:00][FC]<Strom B.> posts like that are likely to make people angrier bcause they're passive aggressive
[10:00][FC]<Mittens T.> hmm true
[10:00][FC]<Strom B.> confronting a problem directly but discreetly is usually the best way to handle things
[10:00][FC]<Mittens T.> ok i'll take it to whispers.
[10:00][FC]<Mittens T.> or chat in private room in mumble.
[10:01][FC]<Strom B.> i can try to be there for you
[10:02][FC]<Strom B.> i've just been removing myself because i didn't want to go off on him

[10:02][FC]<Mittens T.> heh.  reminds me of work event friday.
[10:03][FC]<Strom B.> what happened?
[10:03][FC]<Mittens T.> long complicated story ended in a scheduler giving me a hard time and being snarky.
[10:04][FC]<Mittens T.> she's got a rep for being a dick to everyone else so i emailed her super, "this is an issue."
[10:05][FC]<Mittens T.> but her parting remark had me pissed off enough i had to walk out before allowing myself to be pulled down to her level of unprofessionalism and disrespect.
[10:06][FC]<Strom B.> yeah
[10:06][FC]<Mittens T.> older brother mike likes to quote joe dirt.
[10:06][FC]<Strom B.> it's good that you were able to do that
[10:06][FC]<Mittens T.> "just breakt he wrist and walk away"
[10:07][FC]<Mittens T.> considering today's craziness, it'll likely be monday night before i can have a talk w/ nina
[10:08][FC]<Strom B.> it's cool. i really don't want to add any pressure to you i just figured i'd talk to you about it since this is your show. i didn't want to undermine your authority basically
[10:08][FC]<Mittens T.> oh!
[10:08][FC]<Mittens T.> nono that's fine
[10:09][FC]<Mittens T.> heh.  founders are given 100% same powers as me.
[10:09][FC]<Mittens T.> i trust you guys to do better job than me at leading fc
[10:09][FC]<Strom B.> if you want i can calm myself and try to be civil with him privately and tell him what my issues are
[10:10][FC]<Mittens T.> let's meet in the middle.  can we do it this way?  next time the both of us are on we both chat.
[10:10][FC]<Strom B.> ok that works
[10:10][FC]<Mittens T.> but i would rather you take the lead rather than put words in your mouth.
[10:10][FC]<Strom B.> sure
[10:11][FC]<Mittens T.> thanks.  :)
[10:11][FC]<Strom B.> i mean i think we've both got a good bit of exp with conflict resolution
[10:11][FC]<Mittens T.> yeah feel free to take any action you feel needed at any time without asking me.  i know you.  i know you'll do the right thing.  :)
[10:11][FC]<Strom B.> *blush*
[10:12][FC]<Mittens T.> ^.^
[10:12][FC]<Mittens T.> you've already done way more than i would ask of anyone for this group and i really appreciate that.
[10:13][FC]<Mittens T.> tbh, i hadn't imagined we'd have so many members.
[10:13][FC]<Strom B.> lol i dunno what i've done, i've just run some stuff and grinded out a bunch of seals lol
[10:13][FC]<Mittens T.> figured it'd be just me, tim,, and maybe a few others who felt like being mentors for newbs.  i assumed you'd stick with ultim.  XD
[10:14][FC]<Strom B.> ultim was dying. i wanted to have fun with my friends :)
[10:14][FC]<Strom B.> and i think that's part of why i'm so frustrated
[10:14][FC]<Strom B.> because he's making hanging out with you and tim un-fun
[10:14][FC]<Mittens T.> heh i guess you don't realize what a big impact your friendly and helpful example is.
[10:15][FC]<Mittens T.> even if you never did one bit of mechanics type contrib to the group (and you've done a LOT)
[10:16][FC]<Mittens T.> just being all "hey!  i'm a friendly dude who holds spontaneous parties in my private room" self has been a dream come true for me and tim both.
[10:16][FC]<Mittens T.> dude who... self.  brain thought "being your... self"
[10:16][FC]<Strom B.> lol XD you don't know how happy i was when everyone started showing up in my room, it was so awesome
[10:16][FC]<Mittens T.> yaaaay!  :D
[10:16][FC]<Mittens T.> that was so fun
[10:17][FC]<Mittens T.> yeah that's the chillax kinda cool fc i'd always wanted.
[10:17][FC]<Mittens T.> i assume i have permission to share our conversation w/ tim so he's on same page?
[10:18][FC]<Strom B.> absolutely
[10:18][FC]<Mittens T.> cool cool

*accented* ".....Mittens."

I think this is a button for Strom in particular. Whether it was Daniel who strengthened this button or Strom just had this button all along.

Like Frank's point.

But all that said, Nina HAS said, "Just tell me to shut up when I talk too much."

The Int v Mnd thing? Thankfully, you can retrain. But it is odd he didn't take advise there.

Far as no give, well Nina did give a lot; the mumble, the website, even paying out of his pocket with real dollars. But out of sight, out of mind, so seems like the kind of thing easily overlooked or even excused away as "He did that so he wouldn't have to do anything else." which could be true... or it could be untrue and he's actually a generous guy.

But regardless of Nina's motives, Strom's audio sensitivity is a real issue that has never been brought up (to my recollection), so it should be brought up.

My personal opinion is the guy doesn't MEAN to be a user and just comes off as such. We should start asking him for favors like running OUR dungeons and see what he does. I will be more than happy to hop on any alt for any dungeon (given I have it unlocked). Anyway... those are my initial thoughts.

Tim:  Kori should hear that nina was thanking people for help getting to 50 without prompting.

Atma get!

Dear Pastor.

Blessings in the name of our Saviour, Jesus Christ.  I wanted to share with you how the Spirit spoke to me through your message on Sunday.  Long story short, several months ago, I founded an online gaming club known as a free company.  The idea was to welcome members willing to help other gamers with learning to play well.  I asked members to try and curb dirty language, and they accommodated for the most part.  About a week ago, I had a private conversation with a member about casually using Jesus' name as a curse word.

I asked, "A few members are Christian, so it hurts when a friend curses Jesus.  Please make an effort to refrain from cursing Jesus."

He was polite and apologetic, but the next day he and his husband quit the free company.  Over the next two days, all but three members quit as well.  One of my co-founders called and explained that they were all tired of censoring themselves.  No hard feelings, they just want to cut loose and relax on their off time.

So in the days that followed I'd been carrying disappointment and doubting if I had the right motives or did the right thing.  Where now will they get any interaction with a Christian more positive than the "You're going to hell because you're fat," messages I've heard they get from family members?  I went to service half expecting to hear that I'd messed up big time, falling into a 'holier than thou' attitude and that I had been only using outreach as an excuse for fun times with unbelieving friends.

But instead I hear a hymn about how precious the name of Jesus is.  And a sermon about basing one's identity on Christ.  So I felt like I was being assured that standing up for the name of Jesus was the right thing to do.  When the house built upon the Rock becomes an unpopular place to visit, it's very affirming to be reminded that seeking the Kingdom of God and his Righteousness has always been top priority.

Attended an enightening Civility and Workplace Awareness meeting.  After I brought up lack of communication from administration using the blinds as an example, it was confirmed that Simoncini did not give any orders about the opening and closing of the blinds.  One person clarified that 5 years ago the last site super kept them closed at all times because repeated opening and closing damages them and they are expensive to replace.  And finally, apparently Simoncini recieved a lot of emails from employees requesting that the blinds be kept open.
A spontaneous vote was taken by one person who's infuriated about being blinded asking how many prefer the blinds be opened regardless of whom it hurts.  About 1/5 of the people present raised their hands.  How very eye opening.  Seems the snake is eating it's own tail.  Very discouraging to think of how many workplace problems arise because of the employees asking for them.
At least now I know that one of the problems being faced by the facility origninates at the facility and not from some off-site source.
 My objection is the lack of communication.  The management meetting was another prime example.  There was a message of the day saying how to code the meeting.  What meeting?  This is the first I've heard of this.  When?  Where?  What topic?  Why did I not see an email about this?  Is it the same thing as the reluctant respondant training?  Why was there not a note on the front door for the last week saying, "Check your inbox for details on the upcoming meeting." and another reminder on the day of the meeting?  Why is it not showing on my schedule in IEX.  I learned more detail from incidental gossip than I did from admin.
Then supers walked around the floor at around 5 asking people to stop calling.  Another thing that wasn't communicated ahead of time.  I understand admins are very busy.  But how difficult would it be to add a message like this in the message of the day?
"There will be a staff meeting today at 5:15 in the primary interviewing room.  Please discontinue making outgoing calls at 5."
That took about 30 seconds to write.
Not that the message of the day is a perfect communication tool.  It has several messages that are years old.  But it is at least some form of communication at all.  I spoke with X the other day and she let me in on a communication fiasco between Simoncini and admin that resulted in people being sent home on a day meant to allow extra hours.  Surely we can do better than this.

1 Kings 13 tells a troubling story of a prophet that ends up mauled by a lion.  The man of God delivers a unpleasant prediction about the downfall of the unfaithful king to his face in vs 1-x.  Then after performing two miraculous signs he turns down a king's invitation to dinner and a gift in faithfulness to instructions by God to not eat in that place.  An old prophet hears about this, approaches him, and lies to him that an angel said it was ok to have dinner with him.  The man of God believes the old prophet and dines with him.  The old prophet then prophesies against the man of God for disobedience.  That same day the man of God is killed by a lion.

What was so important about a meal that God would kill his prophet over it?

Tim: it could have happened at any time.  could be any method.  no amount of sin or lack will change your death date.

Biblical Clarity

Misunderstanding is not a problem with the Scripture, it is with the one reading the Scripture.

Brains won't necessarily overcome misunderstanding.

Language has limits.  Especially when talking about the mind of God.

God is patient with those who earnestly seek the truth.  If you seek, you will find.  Matthew 7:7  Jeremiah 29:13

Revelation comes to those with the right attitude, sometimes to those with the wrong attitude.

Asking the author to clarify.  Psalm 119:18

Quintezons behind the robo-zombie apocalypse.  Used the planet of junk as raw materials.  Unicron still floating around...  Is he the ultimate gestalt?  d6 mechanic: as lvl increases, so does the DC to kill outright.  Bosses get more wound levels.  No losing turns.  (Massive damage rule.)


Lucky is much more accustomed to climbing trees then elevator shafts, but this at leas isn't soething he'll flip out over safety wise.  He reviews repelling techniques and safety with Maverick.

"Would you go first, please, Joe?  I'd like for Maverick to go second and me last.  I'm guessing your the fastest climber, so if something happens up here, we'll be somewhat less likely to be separated for long with the fastest going first."

----------------------------
Echo chuckles at Joe's answer, imagining himself swinging around the city.  He shakes his heads to Joe.

"Nope.  No problems with that.  I'm probably about as comfortable with myself as your right half is with with your left half."

They blush at being compared to Sonic.  "I'm no super hero."

"And I probably got a 'Super' sticker on my report card about as often as the next guy."

"Call me 'special' and it'll sound like I'm mentally challenged."

"I'm just a regular guy with a unique ability."

He squirms uncomfortably.  "Not that I don't want to be helpful."

"I just don't know how I could be useful to you."
----------------------
"I'm laughing at how stupid the meanie-pants is looking," Mits clarifies, "But yeah.  Probably because these guys aren't cold-blooded killers.  But they're still soldiers.  So let's stay away from them, please."
------------------------
"Sweet!  Thanks!"  Mits was about to sprint for the aetherite but the conversation wasn't over, so she stayed put.  "Powerful witch.  For as many powerful magic users as I've defeated, I must admit to having little experiences with witches.  Unless in these parts 'witch' is simply the term one uses for 'female mage.'  Like when people call a healer a 'white witch.'   Anything specific you can tell us about her, or whom to ask for such, would be most helpful.  Wawai's question, for example."

She nods to Holy and Soul.  "Attuning to the aetherite would make sense too."
-----------------------
"Mittens thought for sure that convincing a criminal to surrender still counted as an arrest...

"Paying adventurers to drive off bandits has also ironicaly encouraged banditry - when unscrupulous adventurers dress up as bandits to harass a road's travelers then turn around to get hired to drive off the 'bandits.'

"What our brilliant healer has done is to negotiate the surrender of your real, desperate, but not yet murderous bandits.  You've been handed a win-win on a silver platter.  The goblins merely get to live and eat, the victims get their stuff back, and you get free labor or gold depending on whether you fine them or sentense them to community service.

"By the way, those places that execute common thieves wind up with victory-or-death style enemies who rush the city with flammables to burn it down around them because they figure 'gunna get executed anyway for sneezing, so may as well go out with a bang just to spite the authorities.'

"So does my healer have your assurances that when he persuades the goblins to surrender to your mercy that they will receive a lenient sentense?"
--------------------
Archer doesn't know what to make of Lerkeeb's comment.  "Can't say I'm familiar with either place, but it's sounding to me like both are very harsh, yours slightly less so.  Myself, I come from X Forrest.  Mostly pleasant for natives.  Very unwelcoming to outsiders.  So I learned that if I wanted to see anything new, I would have to leave.

"How about you, Fae?  Was there anything pleasent from where you come from?"
-------------------
Mits rubs her chin.  "Do we even need to not tell her?  Suppose Evilface finds out we want to return his magic.  Will that make any difference?  It'll be like the difference between a normal and a surprise birthday party."

Kitau is looking annoyed again.

I purchased this because it was the most affordable of Amazon's top 20 best-selling mp3 players.  From the picture, description, and rave reviews I was expecting an excellent sounding, easy-to-use music player with a few extra bells and whistles at a competitive price.  What I got was a mediocre video player, radio, voice recorder, etc. that happens to be able to play mp3s if you wrestle with it long enough.

The main interface is not a wheel button and is extremely counter-intuitive.  Up and down are not up and down.  Play button is not play until after you've started a song with the up button then paused the song.

Manual is unhelpful and extremely brief, written in poor English.  There is no phone number or website to contact customer service or get a belt clip or update the 3-year-old version 1.0 firmware.

If your music library exceeds 8gb like mine does, there is absolutely no way to include music on the expansion card as part of a playlist that includes the original 8gb of music on the main device.  Your "all music" shuffle will never include music from both the card and the native storage.  The shuffle option is cumbersome to set and resets itself to "off" every time the device is turned off.  This was the final deal-breaker.  Don't expect to be able to simply turn it on and resume enjoying your shuffled music library where you left off.  You will have to wrestle with settings every time.

I'm returning this for a refund.

Devil's advocates.  Lucifer lies about who he is, his history, twists the meanings of words.  Encourages others to do the same.  Touts "self esteem" but makes people loathe themselves.  Feigns ignorance.  Appears to have never ordered anything wrong, "plausable deniability."  Conversation with Lucifer and his son.  "Some day you will take my place.  By force of course."  (Don't use cannon characters like Gabriel.  Or God / Jesus.  Even Lucifer is "just a legend.")  Tailored for very young kids?

Define lie.  Color coded text of deception?  Decieve the reader.  Council of Elders disagree on solutions.  Are fallable.  Make it clear to the reader this is fiction.  Angels w/o wings.  Demons get wings right away.  Lucifer is an overly permissive parent.


Wire disconnected after only 37 days of use.  Just long enough that I can't return it.  Worse track record than a $6 set I bought that lasted 3 months.

tv downstairs:  31.5"
