I wanted to get this out early before the big holiday rush. A nice variety of gaming, although a tad light in the book review department. I’m looking forward to a bit of holiday gaming, especially full-day games. Not sure exactly what, but my gaming buddies and I are kicking around ideas.
Seasonal Tree Tip: While cutting the Xmas pine tree trunk, I got sap on my hand and on the floor. Great. So I looked for a solution on the web, and someone suggested PAM — the spray oil. I was skeptical, but I tried it and lo and behold, it actually worked. Don’t know if it’s something in the spray or in vegetable oil in general, but the sap came up and out, and regular soap and water picked up the PAM remnants. Sheesh. Learn something new every day.


There you have it. Wargaming, history, and a seasonal tree tip.
Happy holidays and wishing you a happy and healthy New Year!
