Welcomes, whining and Leia's Metal Bikini

Hi All,

  Last post I forgot to welcome two new followers to the blog:

ChicoDaSatanic of Oldhammer on a Budget. This is one of those blogs that you thought you were following but weren't and can't figure out why not. Very good stuff for Oldhammerers,  the recent Malal stuff is quite nice.

Zabadak of Zabadak's Zombie World. Lots of good zombie stuff, I especially like his terrain. I already follow him and thought he was already a follower. Nice to have you aboard.

Now for the whining. Bleh, I feel terrible. Last week my wife had some kind of flu which then turned into severe allergies and she lost her voice. I had one night of flu like symptoms but have not yet lost my voice, although I sound terrible and my throat hurts something awful. To top it off my wife is away on business so I'm solo with the kids. I'm keeping it together so far but it has been a challenge. I have a ton of painting to do but only managed a fraction since I was volunteering at the school today. My son is closing in on his 40th mile in the running program they have at school and I seem to be the only person willing to show up to help the kids log their efforts.

And lastly

While I absolutely hated Return of the Jedi, I do appreciate Leia's ensemble. For those who don't know there is a website called Leia's Metal Bikini, lots of pictures of Leia herself and the "Fans in costume" section is interesting.

Have a good one.
