the thing with the gum / inhalator / e-cigarettes etc is they don't actually fix anything at all, you're still addicted to nicotine and there's still a hand-to-mouth thing involved in getting your fix, so you're not breaking the addiction and you're not breaking the habit either

at least patches tackle the second issue

I'd say it started with blowing BioSpark in your case.

I still love me some HeroQuest. Except for the odd map that has damned pit traps right inside doors. aiwebs_027

sounds pretty neat. I used to do a lot of boardgame stuff with people from my old job, tons of people for the game nights and things.

yeah it should be pretty cool if i ever finish, it's actually not a proper tabletop game but rather a video game, but yeah

so hey Ark have you tried/heard of Ni No Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch? Apparently it's a 10/10 PS3 game, and from the few screens I've seen of it so far it looks really pretty.
