Annual Acquisitiveness

While I had meant to read "And a Bottle of Rum" and give you updates as we wound down the giveaway, I have been consumed by trying to get back into working out, practicing martial arts, and home projects that I have been putting off for too long.

As it was Father's day and my birthday two weeks ago, I indulged myself in several books. From John Curry I bought Naval Wargaming and Practical Wargaming through Amazon and Operation Warboard through Lulu.



From lulu.com
I also ordered Wargaming World War Two from Amazon. Written by Justin Tonna from The Wargaming Addict. He also has done a bunch of video walk throughs of a couple of THW rule sets on his site.

I found a source from England on ebay for this book and I'm happy to add it to my library, finally
From Trouble at T'Mill
And after reading about it on the Solo Wargaming Yahoo Group I ponied up $6.95 for the PDF of this book. You can never have too many ideas for solo gaming.

I wish I could say that I will now knuckle down and read but I have a new pressing issue to deal with. My son tearily reported last night that kids are spanking him in the bathroom at the robot camp I signed him up for. I'm going to talk to the instructor about it today. Wondering if I'm gonna have to go all Bad Santa on a kid (or his parents).

I forgot to welcome two new followers.

Smapdi Ness, you don't seem to have a blog. When and if you do just let me know and I'll post a link.

    1. Not sure why this is showing twice...I'm one of the blog-less.

    2. It could be to do with the weird javascript on this page. Not having a blog is fine. I probably spend more time than I should on mine instead of actually gaming.

  3. Sean- I order you to get your butt in gear and do some gaming, or at the very least paint up those spaceships you won from that weirdo who has that one blog, what was it called again, oh yeah it's called DorksLandoftheDead or something like that. LOL

    Nice haul there. With what you posted for the Birthday/Fathers Day Loot and what you won from me, plus this stuff you should be able to keep busy for at least a couple days. LOL

    1. You caught me Doug. My compulsion has been to buy stuff and never get to it. I need to change my habits.
