I'm being slightly pushy about things today!

1. This article about tax policies pretty handily summarized my concerns with the proposed policies of the Republican candidates still considered to be part of the race.

TL;DR: The reason the US is currently in an economic downturn, with a high unemployment rate, is heavily related to the fact that taxes are at a 60-year low. Further lowering them increases the risk of poor job security AND will benefit the rich, not the poor.

2. Play A Tale in the Desert! Holy crap! It is so awesome! Patrick picked it up (apparently after a ten-year break from it) after I spazzed to him that Danny and I were playing it last night, and he has a very accurate summary:

Patrick: It has all my favourite bits of an MMO (crafting) without all the pointless background (everything except crafting)!

3. It is Danny's birthday later this week! Birthday shenanigans are a must.

And most importantly, 4: Really looking forward to D&D tomorrow! We shall learn dream mastery from the mysterious old woman, if we can find her!

Boo government, yay Tale in the Desert!

Also I totally keep forgetting about my birthday somehow! MAYBE GERMAN CHOCOLATE CAKE WILL REMIND ME!

Quick D&D related question. Would you rather find the old lady quickly or have a chance for random side stuff on the way to her to simulate travel time/difficult-adventuresome-stuff?
