Dungeons and Dragons players everywhere, weep! Your progenitor is no more.
D&D creator Gary Gygax went to be with the elves and goblins in that great dungeon in the sky. He passed away yesterday at the age of 69. Apparently he was unable to reach the healing potion he kept in the medicine cabinet.
But for fear of sounding callous, I'm sure he will be missed by many, and it is always a shame to see someone die so relatively early in life.
In a more figurative vein, Mike Huckabee's presidential bid passed into oblivion yesterday, as well. John McCain cinched up the nomination with wins in Texas and Ohio, and the scrappy little former governor of Arkansas bowed to the "inevitable."
It's a shame. I really liked Huckabee; who he was and what he stood for. He is a no-nonsense individual with a level head and an everyman personality. His intelligence and cool-headed intensity made him the standout candidate in the Republican debate. I hope to see him further his political career, even if he can't be president. I would love to see a McCain/Huckabee ticket come the election, especially if there is a Hillary/Obama(or Obama/Hillary) ticket, but I somehow doubt that will happen. We can still pray though, right?
I just can't believe that Ron Paul is still opposing McCain. He should have bowed out months ago. He only has 6% of the vote, for crying out loud! He seems to be completely oblivious to the fact, however. He keeps campaigning and talking about how America clearly wants him to be president. He's certainly got his head somewhere, and it's not in the polls.
On another note, I finally have my new iPod Touch, and it's awesome. I knew I was going to like it, but I didn't know how much. I'll probably rave about it some more later. But for now I'm done.
Ta.
