Fear the Wolves of Russ! [Nerdy Wargaming]

This week I got really into modelling and painting.  I go through ebbs and flows of motivation to work on my armies, but after a lot of consideration I ordered two squads of Devastators (Genetically engineered super-human fanatic killing machines with REALLY big guns) to make two packs of Long Fangs (Genetically engineered werewolf viking super-human fanatic killing machines with REALLY big guns).  Been really psyked about it, and might carry this motivation over for as long as I can to hopefully at last square away the last of my Space Wolves.

I think I still have to finish up 2 packs (16 models) which I have been picking at for a while.  I also need to assemble three more Landspeeders and paint them.  I can only proxy for so long, and think I've figured out a way to make it not as grueling and annoying.  There is also the decision on whether or not I want to assemble Drop pods or just keep using coasters as stand-ins.  It's a hard choice. 

For any of you who have no clue what I'm talking about and are interested enough to get to this third paragraph.  I'm talking about Warhammer 40k.  That is all.  You all have a good weekend. 

Letters concerning the 'Game of Thrones' series

Dear HBO,

Fuck you.  Seriously.  Fuck you for not allowing Game of Thrones to be streamed ANYWHERE.  Don’t you realize this only limits your audience?  It is moves like this which will allow awesome networks like Showtime outpace you in the race to full-streaming TV (Which is the real future). 

I don’t have cable, and will not get it for only one or two shows.  What I WILL do is on some series I will actually pay a buck or two on Zune or iTunes to download episodes (Case in point – The Walking Dead).   

On principle I am now considering acquiring pirated copies of Game of Thrones instead of forking over ~$60 for a DVD series like I am prone to do as a foaming-at-the mouth nerd impulse buyer.  Have fun not having my money.

Sincerely,

Dear George R.R. Martin,

I am sorry for the above letter.  I am sorry HBO is being a dick.  I have been listening to a Song of Ice & Fire on Audiobook and it is THE SHIT (which means its awesome in the slang of my generation).  I bought the ACTUAL book last year, but I have NOT been churning through my reading list like I used to. 

Sincerely,
