My mom returned today (with my nephews) and as I waited for them to get off of the plane I went to the lighthouse model to envision a battle, and then I saw the sign that read: "Fire Island." This whole time I just assumed that the model was of the lighthouse at Montauk Point, never Fire Island. My imaginative, miniature battles have been flawed with fantasy!!!

Also, I saw the final two episodes of Happy Town on ABC.com this morning and I have to say that they were really good. I guess you need to get the supernatural stuff out there quick before people stop watching. It was good and the creators should do some sort of wrap-up with the series.

Finally, a big KUDOS to Peter Outerbridge for his portrayal of "Handsome" Dan Farmer. He played a deranged yet witty cop very well. Be sure to check out his other work from Millennium (another show that deserves a well-to-do wrap up).

WAR! What is it good for? GAMING!

My nephews are visiting! But not yet. My mom has to go take a flight to Florida to pick them up (because I'm a huge sissy when it comes to planes) then she'll return Tuesday with them.

In just a little bit I'll be taking her to MacArthur airport, and probably escort her inside where they have an amazing model of the lighthouse at Montauk Point. Now, I know this is lame but everytime I see that model I always wish I could bring my Axis & Allies minis (from the board game) and storm the beaches of Montauk!

What's weird is war is a terrible thing, but it's so fun, exciting and awesome when played out with miniatures and detailed terrain.
