The news is all over the place that Gary Gygax passed away at age 69. The father of D&D is gone... huh. The tributes I've seen thus far (including some clever webcomic ones) have been very touching.

R.I.P. Mr. Gygax.

Right now I'm downloading Mabinogi, since open beta just began today, but more about that in a bit.

On the video game topic, Jon surprised me today by coming home with DS games. Guess he got paid recently and he wanted to cheer me up. It was dampened a bit by the fact he went and delivered the immigration papers but he forgot to get me to sign the most important part (my letter). The agent said it didn't matter but... I still want her to have a signed copy. It's just important to me.
