I dunno, I've failed it after working really, really hard on it in the past and all.... But yes, I noticed that.

http://www.highiqsociety.org/noflash/nonmembers/iqtests.htm Try the first one, the Ultimate IQ test. My latest attempt netted me a 132. If you really want to hurt your head, give the exceptional intelligence one a shot.

I don't know NOTHIN about no goddamned coup d'etat. :ninja:

The other results varied. The ginger one I found to be disappointing, but the green apple one (Chinese, I think?) was surprisingly good to me. And the british one was odd, but Hades liked it. The only one we universally agreed on was the Italian crap. Incidentally, I mentioned to Monee that...

That is exactly the stuff we had. Truly vile, and enough evidence for me that Italy needs to be nuked off the face of the planet.

On Thursday it was decided that we should all hit the World of Coke, a small museum dedicated to the most vile concoction mankind has ever experienced. Locally this is referred to as the Pavilion, FYI. We ventured forth and rode the halfassed subway that is the MARTA system (metro atlanta rapid...

Ah, ok. Good to have that last little tidbit of the story. Also, that's not the first time that the Klingons have recognized and admired us. :)

I was going to call this a 'great' dragoncon story, because it had a few of us in stitches as it occurred, but this is one of those situations where you might have needed to be present to understand the humor. I'll relay it anyway, because Frosty says I should. Although Dragoncon is generally...

The following story happened this evening. As I was the second most sober person present, and as the completely semi-unofficial Dragoncon cool story scribe, I feel I should make sure this is recorded. To begin with, I want to post a large disclaimer. This might come across as mean, or...

Every night at DC there are massive gatherings of people in costume, sort of a sneak preview of what will be at the costume contest. Pretty much everyone in costume (aside from most of the Stormtroopers, because there would be WAY too many) will mill about in the lobby of one of the hotels. We...

I've tried to convince her, but she's got her heart set on not doing so. But she still intends to meet us at Teds, where I am going to force you buggers to go eat with me.

The first day there was a couple of things in the classic sci-fi track I was gonna hit on my own, then the Episode 3 preview and panel with Steve Sansweet on Saturday, which is a must for me. They're redoing it Sunday as well and all, but you know. Gotta be there first.

Well, my dear friends, it's time to do the final scrambling of packing and assembling plans for the good old DragonCon. To help all of the neophytes out, I thought I'd offer some final clothing/weathery tips. Although you can normally expect 90+ degree weather in Atlanta at this time of year...

My anus is bleeding!

Anyone tried Hot Damn? That's some good shit right there. Also, Guiness, vodka, uhm... that's about it really.

But it still sucks for those of us that will be spending an hour driving to work at about 7:30, therefore missing the big moment and all. =(

It would be good to see more Zahn coming our way, but I'd be hoping for another round of X-Wing novels from Allston and Stackpole. The two make for a great team, and they tend not to be constrained by the 'official' characters in such a role. A post-NJO version would be an excellent springboard...

Speaking of our good buddy Aaron, Theforce.net just reported this: More Star Wars books, yay! After NJO though, I wonder what characters he'll use. Just about everyone from the movies should be in the old spacefarer's home by now.

Oh well excuse the hell out of me for not paying any attention to you people whatsoever. Or forgetting, which is probably more likely. Doesn't mean we can't celebretate even more. It's not like we need to be worried about clogging up the Dragoncon forum here.

Aaron Allston Aaron Allston is the author of the Celtic urban fantasy Doc Sidhe and several novels in the Star Wars: X-Wing series. Man, his website is fugly. Oooh, lots of Farscape cast too. Might have to get these DVDs autographed.
