Happy Holiday Season

The Thing Of The Day will be taking a holiday break starting now.
We don't know at this time when we will be back in full force, or if we will change the format a bit when we come back.
Have a great Holiday Season!

Holiday

We have agreed to take Thursday and Friday off. We hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving weekend!

Team Pass

It happens.

Pass


Another game convention, another team pass.

As the small town paper says, a fun time was had by all.

Blog Down For A Week

Due to a seriously corrupted file, the TTOTD blog has been out for a week. I'm so lucky I backed up the file just last weekend. This is the backup file.

It's a do-over.

Team Pass

Go watch a funny movie here. We are passing today.

Team Pass

Due to family emergencies, today is a team pass. This week may also be of diminished production.
|

Team Pass for Good Reason!

Due to spending time with all sorts of out of state family the last week, we are taking a team pass for today. I had family come from North Carolina, New Hampshire (and I finally can point that state out on a map), and Virginia, and Bryan had family from Texas. We love you all, thanks so much for visiting!
Stay tuned, future Things could include photos of you, or subjects we talked about.

Team Pass

Blame it on the Sopranos Finale or the new Big Love or our new Blockbuster movie Netflixy-thing or the fact we just received a new team pass on the first of the month, but we're having a team pass today.

Team Project for Holiday!

(Shelly here): We decided to do a Team Thing, since today was a bonus day, me having the day off (Bryan always has Monday's off--must be nice!) So I looked through the archives at MAKE to find something we could do together.
What we decided on was some paper crafts Make featured brought to you by Cannon. Check out all their free paper crafts to download, print and put together, there are tons of cool ones, and they are free!!
We decided to do some from their craftown series, because they might be able to work into or become a game.
Here's our police station, convenience store, and people to go with. It was fun to do a project together!
Paper Crafts
(Shelly did the super hard police station and police car; Bryan did the easier convenience store and some people.)


Convenience Store

(Bryan here): As you can see from this scene, the employees and manager have decided to take a day off from menial labor and pay tribute to their favorite movie, Clerks. After about a half hour of some of the most righteous roof hockey you'll ever see, the Fuzz show up on a noise complaint. But it's cool. Lady cop buys her weed from Raoul, the night clerk who's also her booty call on the overnight. But Lady Cop doesn't know Raoul is also tapping her best friend, Amy. Not that she'd care much, she just knows where Amy's been. Oh, and Sampson, the manager, has the largest collection of inappropriately edited video of customer hijinks from the surveillance camera. He'll show it to you if you ask.

And that's just a few of the stories in the torrid history of the Craftown Convenience Store. Sorry no Jay and Silent Bob, they're a just an urban legend.
