Jon Is Lame, Film At 11

-Ugh. Today was supposed to be my first day of full-time work on GURPS Fantastic Cities in over a month. I think I got a hundred words written. I did answer some email from my co-author, do some organizing vis-a-vis GURPS Banestorm, and edit some extant GFC text (and I had a busy morning), but overall, laaame.

-Tomorrow will be better.

"Say 20 Things" Meme Commentary

-I've been engrossed in reading the comments on my, and other people's, Say 20 Things meme. One of the interesting parts is seeing who responds, and how. If they make a guess as to which one is about them, it means they've gone to the trouble of constructing a mental model of how the writer might feel about them. So, at a minimum, they care about that question. And, it's also interesting in those cases when their guess is one that really doesn't apply to them, because then you get a glimpse of what they see when they look in the mirror.

-For the record, for each of my 20 Things, I had one specific person in mind. However, I often thought, "That could also apply to A, and B for that matter," while I was typing each one out.

Captain Amazing: . . . Of course.
