Reply to It's Too Early For This in Misc JoeUser Forums

I hear you. The leaves are turning, the weather is getting cooler and summer can hardly be seen in the rearview mirror. Apparently Farmer's Almanac says it's going to be a long, hard winter. I have no problem with a hard winter, but in these parts (the midwest) it's made that much harder by the lack of sunshine and the fact that everything looks dead. Do you stay warm enough in your truck during the winters?

Perfectly understandable BlueDev. I will miss reading your blogs but I must admit, even finding the time to read these days is difficult, let alone write something new! I must constantly be certain that Zoomba has enough to do so that he has no energy left to blog... I'll keep an eye out for you. Best.

Reply to Dragon*Con: Day 1 in Fun destinations JoeUser Forums

It is like Nerdvana. It IS nerdvana! That's a perfect description. It's also a freaksow and a half, but that's the fun of it. I'm not sure it would be easy to describe exactly what this place is like until you visit it and see what I mean. I've had a couple of innocent bystanders ask me what the heck was going on. One poor dude had just come

Fantastic. I love it when I can catch these articles at just the right moment in my life to be able to say "hell yeah!" I hope I am as strong as you. Love to read your writing Mason. Always good to hear from you.

Reply to Wasted Days and Wasted Night in Blogging JoeUser Forums

I feel my main value in life is taking care of my family and I'm not even able to take care of myself right now. It really isn't good for my mental well being. Sometimes it's ok for the caretaker to get a little rest, especially when you are almost ready to give birth! don't be too hard on yourself and try to have as much fun as possible. <im

Reply to Wasted Days and Wasted Night in Blogging JoeUser Forums

Gah, I hate waiting too! It must be much worse waiting through the last stages of pregnancy. I have full faith that everything will go ok. I was actually pretty sure I'd see an e-mail or call telling me the baby was coming this weekend. Try and use the time to catch up on some light reading or movies you've been wanting to see? Yeah, I'm sure that's useful advice!

2 am blog in Blogging JoeUser Forums

Been up all night. The minute I lay my head down all of the bitterness and crap I've had to swallow that day and every day stretching back to the day of my birth comes bubbling up like vomit. And make no mistake about it, I'm bitter. And it's not all stuff I'm making up, either. It's a strange thing to lie in bed and be eaten alive from the inside out. Seems a bit unfair...but I guess I'm used to it. I am SO tired right now, and I know my whole day will be ruined tomorrow from lack of

Reply to Desensitized. in Blogging JoeUser Forums

Beautifully written. I know that feeling of being surrounded by people but all alone. Usually I like it, but sometimes..not so much. I hope everything is ok. It sounds like it is, but sometimes it's a slippery slope, eh?

Reply to Why post a game idea? in Game Ideas JoeUser Forums

As a Stardock employee I can tell you that we would not steal a story idea from you for the following reasons: 1) We have our game business planned out for the next 5 years and it doesn't include any outside games. 2) Ideas are cheap (read up on some of Draginol or Frogboy's blogs). It's the actual implementation of an idea that costs so much in time and resources. We currently have only enough resources for the games we have planned. 3) We don't want to get sued

Your employees would find work in other places if Stardock shut down. They sound like talented people (from what you've written) so they'd be ok. I know it's hard to beleive Brad, and I know you would never just throw off all repsponsibility and allow your employees to fend for themselves, but I have to admit that Tova is exactly right.
