Calling All Agents: Pre-Order Last Shot Today
As a secret agent, you've been part of some history . . . March 11, 1985: Mikhail Gorbachev becomes the General Secretary of the Communist Party and leader of the USSR. June 12, 1987: In a speech at the Brandenburg Gate in Berlin, United States President Ronald Reagan...
Who Goes First, Gamers' Choice!
I recently posted about how games determine who goes first. Of course, this doesn't account for the myriad ways that players can decide that all-important question.

The Elegoo Saturn 4 Ultra 3D Printer: Best Beginner's (Or Expert's!) Resin Printer: Part 2

Bring Back Knightmare
One of the fun things about being married to a European is that you learn about elements of nerd culture you never knew existed. My husband first introduced me to the British show Knightmare many years ago, back when we were having a moment of television nostalgia. Airing from 1987...
