Micah 6:8
Jonah 1:7-15
Yes, your life matters.
We all are still sheltering in place, but I'm here to keep you sane and entertained.
One could hardly ask for much more than that, now could one?
Today is International GMs Day - as in Game Master (or Dungeon Master / DM as we called it back in my day). It's a day to celebrate the folks who run role-playing games. Ironically, on 04 March 2008 Gary Gygax, American game designer, writer, co-created Dungeons & Dragons, died - six years after the beginning of this holiday. In one way, it's nice to know that this is really about celebrating the folks who run our games, not set up as a memorial to Gary, in another, it's even better knowing that we can celebrate his life along with that more general celebration. Roll some d20s or d12s or whatever your favourite dice might be today in celebration.
Quite a few years before all of that was going on in Wisconsin, on 04 March 1678 Antonio Vivaldi was born. We're almost to the beginning of Spring, so why not play the Spring concerto from his Four Seasons? I think I'll look for a recording around the house.
Keep Calm and Stay Away.
I'll be back tomorrow.
