Now that really takes me back. I used to find these things hidden in our books at the store I used to work at. No doubt put there by well-meaning if somewhat ignorant individuals to dissuade those considering a lifestyle of DARK DUNGEONS *reverb here*

Anyway, cheers on the anniversity and a hearty "foot to head" from my monk. ;-)

I used to get in some arguements(who me?) with these types all the time. The Tom Hanks movie didn't help.

Funny, on one level, but scary on another. There are people that believe that D&D is just like that, at least to some level.

Pat Robinson lead the charge for years. I am sure someday he will relize there are larps and go after them as well.

That is truly scary. I have never seen that and I have been playing D&D practically since the beginning.

I never saw this one in particular but many more just like it and the special stories on 700 club were always neat.

Some of us are glad...

That you were there to get into arguments with us when we were being terribly naive... =B) Nice to see you Tech!

You wouldn't think that there's any truth to those pamphlets, silly as they are - and it might be coincidence, but I played D&D, and look what happened to me. Now I'm dead, evil, and I chomp on any chunk of flesh I can get my grimy, withered (yet surprisingly strong) hands on. So before you go laughing at them Chick publishers, just remember me and my fate.

Of course, it might not have been the D&D. It might have been the chicken sacrifice in the graveyard during the full-moon on All Hallows Eve at midnight when that meteor struck the Book of the Dead that I just happened to be holding as the words "Clatoo, Verata, Nicto"* were escaping my lips.

But then again, it might have been the D&D

*Thanks to the deadites of deadites.net for the proper spelling of "Clatoo, Verata, Nicto" - evilzombieking may be evil, but he likes to attribute his sources. (Plus they've got some really hot pictures posted on that site of gals who are hardly wearing any flesh at all. w00t!)
