I notice that all of the school shooters have been male. Never female.

Rapid Fired Pizza: When you absolutely need it fast!
They promise "zero to pizza in 180 seconds" and they are not wrong. I hadn't visited Rapid Fired Pizza for some time now. Guess I've been trying to cook on my own more, and I've been learning some new recipes (including quiche, thank you very much Heather :-). But I was coming back from a friend's birthday party yesterday evening and had the craving for a good pizza. So I went to one of Rapid Fire's locations here in upstate South Carolina. By the time I'd finished, I had vowed that I'd make myself a more regular customer, because their pizza ROCKS!
So, what's Rapid Fired Pizza's errr... pizza, taste like? As you can see I got a pretty standard pepperoni and mozzarella cheese (and a Dr. Pepper soft drink). It arrived good 'n hot and I discovered that I had forgotten the childhood agony of hot cheese dripping off the slice and onto my tongue. Yee-OUCH!! But it doesn't take long to cool to a more palatable degree. My taste buds delighted in the rich flavor of the traditional sauce and what can only be described as the perfect crust for a pizza chain. The pepperonis cooked nicely and had a good bite to them.
In short, my dinner was a true delight. And as I said I'll be going back more often. Either dining in or taking a pizza home with me on the way back from the office.
Rapid Fired Pizza is a franchise that's seeing some growth. They're mostly based around Ohio but there are a few locations beyond that region including four in the Greenville/Spartanburg, South Carolina area. And according to their website they're also expanding to California. So check it out and see if there's a location near you. It's well worth making a visit!

What the leaked majority opinion REALLY does
I'm seeing a lot of outrage about the leaked draft of the majority opinion overturning Roe v Wade. Much anger about destroying a "right" to abortion. But for all their screaming these people are showing us that they have NO grasp whatsoever of what they are screaming about.

My first op-ed piece was about abortion. This is what happened...

Monsterpocalypse Board Game is coming at ya!
Several years go, this blogger went a little nuts over Privateer Press's Monsterpocalypse. The kaiju-inspired miniatures game became a staple every week at friendly local game store HyperMind. I ended up collecting a complete army for all the factions that got released.
Then something happened: Privateer Press sold the rights to a Monsterpocalypse movie. The project - which was to have been helmed by Tim Burton - did not get made. And the game languished in licensing hell for several years. And then a few years ago Privateer Press brought Monsterpocalypse back: as a "hobby game". The minis were no longer pre-painted, although they were somewhat larger than the original models. By that time I wasn't feeling up to getting into the game again, though my love of the concept was always there.
Well, call Monsterpocalypse the franchise that just won't die, because soon there'll be ANOTHER way to get your kaiju-crushing kicks! A few months ago Privateer Press announced along with Mythic Games the coming of the Monsterpocalypse Board Game:
Look! Game trailer!
