I ran a game of Top Secret on Saturday. First time running a game in a long time. If you want to read the rpg journals, they can be found in my Facebook notes, MySpace Blog (5 entries), or at Pen & Paper Games Blog:

Top Secret takes me back good times.

We had fun. I hope you enjoy the journal though it's rough. I haven't written any of these in a while.

[Dark]

I did and it shows quite a bit of promise please keep up the good work.

[Max_Writer]

Thanks. I'm planning on playing Behind Enemy Lines (the old FASA edition) with the same group soon. Hopefully, it will make for a good story.

On March 8, 2008, I ran a game to memorialize Gary Gygax. We played Advanced Dungeons and Dragons; I ran the Keep on the Borderlands. A chair was set aside for Gary at the head of the table. We toasted him with scotch after that game. The man has touched so many lives. I've only now gotten around to fixing it so it can be online.

The journal entry can be found here:
