I have a theory that if you slap a price tag on something, even if it's an inferior product and worth less than the cost of production , people will automatically assign value to the thing and pay.
Case in point? I have several:
1. Any movie starring Angelina Jolie.
2. Paris Hilton's album.
3. Pugs
4. Segways
5. Iphones
Thats good enough for now.
Anyway, point being, is that I think I'm going to toss a "Donate" button up on the Raptor Squad site.
Why the hell not? I bust my ass creating entertainment and gameaids for the masses (as we've done for, oh, going on eight years now)...and if folks have money to toss away on the crap WOTC puts out, then why not show Raptor Squad some love? Especially considering there are still D6 fans out there and with the death of WEG you can pretty much rule out getting ANYTHING new in the future.
Heck, seing a little jack might even inspire me to work harder on the site than I am now...and if folks toss some coin my way, I figure they got the right to give me some input on what they would liek to see...so win-win...I get monetary incentive, you guys get to pull my strings.
Seems like a decent deal to me. Plus most of you need to kick your crack habit and this is a good cause to redirect your money to.

Happy Thanksgiving!
Here is the States it’s that wondrous time when we slaughter a bird, stuff it with goodies and toss its ass in the oven.
That being said, Happy Thanksgiving!
Not much to speak of on the website front…I’ve got several irons in the fire…not just Raptor Squad stuff but a brand new venture I might be rolling out next year as well. I’ll keep you updated on it.
So! For my fellow countrymen, enjoy our day of thanks, and for everyone around the world, take time out to be thankful for what you have and the good things going on in your life.

Aqua Teen Hunger Suck
Aqua Teen Hunger Force.
Used to be funny, now it's just stupid.
But I expect the brainless to continue to watch, because, if I 've learned nothing else in life, it's that most people who walk the earth are sheep and incapable of independent thought.
Of course if you are reading this blog it means you are likely NOT a sheep and possessing of good taste. Or you're here by accident, in which case you should move along. I'm sure there is a Paris Hilton or Kanye West website calling your name.
So congrats on that.
But Carl is still funny as hell.
Oh and what does this have to do with Star Wars or my website?
Nothing. Nothing at all.
VIVA REVOLUTION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Good Times
I got to sit on the other side of the GM screen this weeekend and had a blast.
I played a rogue in a D&D game and it was a lot of fun throwing some dice around, doing some morally questionable things and overall just cutting loose.
It had been YEARS since I was able to game and not GM.
So...good times.

It's been decided!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
After much deliberation and input, the newest team members of Raptor Squad will be:
A short, wise-cracking black orphan and his older brother, both of whom come from an orphanage in the "bad part of space".
Look for it next year!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Old Old School!!!!
Elfgirl and I were talking the other day about catalogs from the 70's and toys we had when we were kids.
Besides being able to find video of a naked asian man in a bear mask being violated by an animatronic pony, the internet is wonderful when you want to track down some of your youth.
Check out the following sites! I had many of the toys featured there and it brought back some memories!!!!!!!!!!

Anyone born after 1980 really need not bother unless you want to see some vintage stuff!!!!!!!!!

Mixing It Up!
Im considering "creating" a new team member for Raptor Squad.
Nothing is set in stone yet, but I would like suggestions and ideas.
"Creating?" you may ask.
Yep. I'm thinking about creating an all new team member (or two!) that never existed as a player character in our game, and that will only exist as a totally new contruct for the fiction.
Crazy huh?
Yeah, but thats how I roll. It not only keeps it fresh for me, but will throw some new elements into the story that not even the old players will be familiar with.
Again, still in the planning and ironing out stages, but Im open to ideas and suggestions.
Soo sound off ya monkeys!
