My Friend Amo was one of the first members of Darken and has in recent years developed an offshoot group called dragonclaw. He's invited me to numerous events but they hold them on Saturdays and I typically have to work on Saturdays but I would love to try it!  :)

Hey, I don't knock LARPers, as the sign says, at least they're outside!  I heard its fun...have perused some of the Dagorhir boards, they really get into it.  I still have this idea of doing a D'Haran special forces character/Ranger- replete with anachronistic leather armor.  :)

Take a quick poll on how many of the above LARPers above have moved out of their parents' house 1st, Sir William. After that, reassess your last commentary.  ::) LOL

That just means they have someone to pick them up when they're done playing.  I still don't knock them for having a bit of fun; beats vegging out to anime ad nauseum.

Oh, Dr. Who is your chosen 'deity'.  I get it now...your other post on the topic about religious fanaticism in the home had me non-plussed for a moment.

Strangely enough I'm also a Reverend in the ULC (ULC.org), but I think that's a Reno tradition, and a Dudist Priest because I thought they were joking.

I've even performed weddings too.

Looks like just about anyone can get ordained by ULC, provided they take the online course, right?  You do not see that as a conflict of interest considering you are an avowed atheist as well?

By the way, I thought The Big Lebowski was the perfect homage to the old weed flicks of the 70s like the Cheech & Chong series of movies...but was also a black comedy, which I was not prepared for.

I was 18. I did it as a lark. No course needed. I did it in under 5 minutes. I used it to push back at a stupid NV law requiring one to see a Revered/Priest/Rabbi/Imam to have a legal wedding. Most of the quickie marriage places in Reno or Vegas are run by ULC Ministers.

But I am an atheist. :)
