Needs WD40. Or failing that, beer.

Sorry to hear he's in ill health.

Cheers,

I have a plan so cunning, you could put a tail on it and call it a weasel.

Here is the website: http://www.bing.com/local/details.aspx? ... restaurant

The menu is upscale casual. Prices in the range of $20 to $30 per person.

They would not give us a private room unless we were willing to fork over $1750. That was the great thing about the Rathskeller, they gave us the room free.

What time do we show up?

The original plan was for 7PM at the Rathskeller. So I am planning on 7PM at Rock Bottom unless we hear something different.

I have the following limited editions that I will be bringing to GenCon, and to the dinner if there is interest:

Return to the Frozen North--GaryCon II Adventure
#'s 2,3 & 4 of 6

Onto the Devil's Skillet--NTRPGC II Adventure (My best ever-38 pgs, lots of maps, new monsters and about 7 to 11 sessions worth of gaming with minimal work by DM--sorta over-engineered it. Heavy cardstock covers and maps and printed on #32 paper.)
#'s 2,3,4 & 6 of 6

I'm thinking about packaging a matched set and auctioning it off for my charity at the Charity Auction (They don't ding my charity- nice of them.) and including a one-off personal item. Or I could do that set at the dinner, or whatever. Just haven't decided yet. I'm just not going to net as much for my group from the adventure as I had hoped.

Oh, personal item is a pin the size of Wham's that has a caricature of me from '82 or '83 with the sobriquet "Weretwitcher". It was drawn by Bill Neff, my old staff artist at Adventure Gaming. It comes with a very long explanation...
