The sad part? I have the <em>exact same</em> dice set in my basement somewhere... Anyone need some DM guides, circa 1977?

Um... ouch?

<div class="excerpt">
You are a four-sided die, a d4. Otherwise known as a tetrahedron, a "Caltrop", or (to a lesser degree) "Ol' Pointy". This crap bores you, so I'll get to the point. Others tend to see you as petty, conniving, manipulative, argumentative, defensive, greedy, and needlessly antagonistic. You see yourself as focused, effective, efficient, influencing, shrewd, tactical, and direct. Both points of view are in fact correct. You always know the best way to get things done, a fact that never wins sympathy with others. Whenever you manage to gain control of a situation, your solutions are swift and brutal. Unfortunately everyone else is convinced that granting you such power is, "a bad thing" and often conspire to keep it out of your hands. Such short-sighted fools!

I guess the writing's on the wall... <a href="http://bubbler.net/guru" rel="nofollow">Leon Tightlips</a> is about to <a href="http://bubbler.net/notes/97925/166975" rel="nofollow">take over the blogosphere</a>. It was fun while it lasted. I, for one, welcome our new Lightship overlord...

Now, if only Leon Tightfist could have easier-to-type URLs. He might get linked to more often... Oh, yeah, and maybe if he had some meaningful content on his blog. That might help a bit, too... All that's up now is some odd <a href="http://www.ali.com/">Ali</a>-esque ranting monologue...

Not sure what Mr. BlightMist's problem is, but he sure is one angry little dude...]]></description>
