It's that time of Year....

Yes, It's Austerlitz time!   You must be L'Emperor of your Mind, your Spirit and your Soul as you seek to prevail over the pettifogging, the ephemeral, and that which is inferior to you in every way!  You wisely made yourself in charge of your Fate!  Do not merely Exist!  Prevail!

Enjoy last years re-enactors!

...but it's still good!





Happy Thanksgiving, all!

It's just a Game!

Some people...they just think things are theirs for the asking....and they ask a lot.  And hell, they get a lot!  And they overpay for the privilege.  And so they make their groups failure the failure of the overpaid.  Now when that doesn't work....they should let the overpaid go, right?  But instead they put more money on their centaur.  And whaddaknow they get the results they got before.  Now they just want some other group to take their centaur off their hands so they won't fail again.  Which is what has to happen, right?  Yep!

It only takes a second...

Like both Althouse and Instapundit, I, too, have an Amazon box through which you can buy things.....and if you did, the management here at Fluffy Stuffin' would be much appreciative!  Plus, we here need it more than those two do!  It doesn't cost you anything...and I might make a shekel out of it, so thanks again, for anything you can do!

Run Lola Run


Digging around the other day, I found a poster I have for the film Run, Lola Run.  Unfolding it, I forgot how huge it really is!  (Note the dvd case by it for comparison.)  I really only have one wall of the house that could take it!  Plus, it needs to be flattened out.... Still, it's pretty cool looking.



They tell you the whole plot here...in French!

Hello Joan.....


I realize these pics have been elsewhere....but, jeez, I'm only human!

Airlines!


Not all games are on obvious topics like war or sports....some are about running an airline.  No, really!


It's really an economic game of building networks to airports....

Using a variety of aircraft of differing costs/capabilities....

and dealing with a wide variety of issues/problems!  It's a lot of fun...plus, you get to see how odd the airline industry is....colorful, and easy to play.  Look for it!

The Creature That Ate Sheboygan!


Not all my games involve huge maps with huge numbers of pieces.  This is a very fun little game from 1979, which is basically Godzilla vs. A City.  The Godzilla player gets one piece:  Godzilla.  The City play gets a variety of units, with the traditional goal of stopping Godzilla from trashing the town.  What makes it cool is that before the game, the Godzilla player can select from a variety of Monster Powers, like Flying, Giant Leap, Make Spiderwebs, Flame Breath (of course!), and Hypnosis ( which lets you Mind Control the City units!) , amongst others.

                                      
 The rules.


The map is quite small...that's a quarter at the top, one of my few.  You can't have it.  I mean it....stop looking at it!

It's a very cool game that plays in about an hour, and because you can make the monster quite different each time, it has a lot of replay value.  If you can ever find it, pick it up!

Construction!

We are making a few changes to the blog layout...and have added an Amazon search box!  So, fund the 'Stuffin', by making your Amazon purchases through the little box...your price will not be affected!

We're not done fixing things, so more changes may appear....

The Gingertennial

In your February Gingertennial pic, Ginger is here expressing her 2nd Amendment rights....and is probably thinking about certain directors/ex-husbands....

Chicken batteries power pix of new VogMobiles

First off, a noble hat tip to Mighty Chickelit who, Colin Clive-like, has brought power back to my once dead camera. These are the first of a bunch of overdue snaps...

Camie has a new vehicle and she brought young Beanie to show it to me...and get my laundry (because the washer has yet to be replaced!)


Behold The Chevyness! As seen from My Back Porch

Beanie sez "Hey get over here!"

"Hi Uncle Ron!"
"Why, yes, I prefer the Mid Period Beatles to the Pepper Era...why do you ask?"

"S'up?"

"Time for Lunch!"

The Gingertennial

This year is the 100th anniversary of the birth of one Ginger Rogers....so, every month this year I'm going to try to put up an unusual pic of Ginger, and I'll try to find something special for her birthday itself.


Ginger and Francis Dee from "Finishing School"

....and we're done

The holidays are over and done with....Xmas day I spent seeing and talking to no one. (except delivery Chinese!). I did talk to Camie in the evening when I saw she had been in an accident.

New Years Day was pretty much the same way. New Years Eve was a little better, showing someone the Marx Brothers (when they had never seen them!) and having some good conversation.

So the less said about the holidays the better.
