Other Origins Bits

I signed up for both the Smithee Awards - that celebration of bad-movie-awesomeness, and the Meta-Mega-Smithees - the quintuple-strength edition that occurs once every five years. That does block off a lot of prime gaming time, but it's worth it! I always have a blast and come back with a list of bad movies that I have to see in their entirety. Where else would I have learned of the Guns of El Chupacabra?

I'm also in two introductory, models-provided sessions of Warhammer 40K. Since I'm still learning the game, the practice will be helpful, to say the least.
