My wonderful wife gave me the Lego Death Star exclusive kit this past Christmas. Rather than spend a solid two days gorging on building this awesome set, I decided to take my time and spread the construction love over the course of several days in 2-3 hour sessions.
The NHL locket is OVER! As I contemplate what exactly this means for me and my hockey viewing/consumption habits, I thought I’d share two emails I got this morning. Obviously, the NHL and its teams have a massive PR mountain to climb in repairing the damage done to their fanbases, so these letters were expected. …
This will be the last update on Handbook: House Kurita for 2012. Principal writing is winding down and during the upcoming holiday week, most of the book will be (hopefully) completed. I’m also hoping to start seeing some of the art soon; it’s been far too quiet on that front. One of the primary things …
Been a few weeks, so I thought I’d share a bit more from the ongoing HBHK project. One of the biggest challenges to this particular book is trying to convey the arrogance of the Kuritas (as it’s from the perspective of a Combine historian) without sounding overdone and silly but still convey important information.

And we’re back with the next installment of HBHK, letting you peek behind the Dragon’s curtain at the mysteries within. Or something like that. Anyway, progress continues forward. I’ve pulled some material for preview; the selections this week are scattered across multiple sections.

Since I handle all of their communications…all extraneous writing was suspended for most of the week as I spun the media web. The entire conference was a huge success, however, and I’ll be returning to my work …
The highest ideals to which the subjects of Lord Kurita can aspire are Purity and Harmony. By Purity is meant freedom from all that might come between the citizen and their duty to their Lord and government. [Commentary: Purity does not mean avoidance of bodily functions such as sex. Rather, it refers to using those …
“Devotion to the Success of the Combine Through Proper Work” (Dictum Honorium VII, 215-216) Devotion to duty, perfected through greater self-discipline, leads to an improved state of personal freedom and sense of joy focused on fulfillment in one’s work. [Commentary: Business is war on the field of numbers. Financial ruin from poor decisions and improper …
My wonderful wife and her family got me a Nook Simple GlowTouch for my milestone birthday recently, and it’s turned my passion for reading into overdrive. Those who have known me for a long while know of my “talent” for reading 5-7 books at a time and managing to keep everything straight with regards to …
