CURRENT MISSION

Live life in the now

ABOUT ME

An affable person, pretty easy-going.

Don't watch TV, specially the News - I figure, if anything is really going to affect me negatively I'll find out about it soon enough, no need to "suffer by antecipation"

I get the Zeitgeist http://thezeitgeistmovement.com/ , "after seen it can't be unseen", it's a way of life for me now

PHILOSOPHY

The world can literally explode tomorrow (literally! Like in a 3rd termo-nuclear world war) AND it can became amazingly awesome positive world, both possibilities are around the corner :)

And if it does explode, we'll probably won't survive it, so why worry ^_^!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have witnessed a triple-critical at the very most needed time roleplaying with my friends :D

Imagine a quartet of close friends, young adventurers (adventuring in this fantastic world being the most dangerous but most enriching experience you can have, both in the material and in the spiritual sense), 4 friends venturing into their first dungeon, and after battling through many perils they reach what seems to be the deepest part of the dungeon and the root of the evil that is cursing this region (that is the reason we ventured in here in the first place). As we battle this evil individual it becomes apparent we will perish here "so close, yet so far!" for him is much to powerful for us 4, and were already battered from our way here.
And then, everyone is already on their last rope, we are running in circles from the powerful foe, the Mage only has one more spell, one of the lowest power spells; the foe corners us, and my friend the Mage yells "I cast my last Acid Splash" and rolls the die to see the result (a die with 20 faces) "20! Critical! OMG! Roll again to confirm", "20 again!! ZOMG!! Double Critical Roll again to confirm!!", "TWENTY!!!!!! TRIPLE CRITICAL!! (insta-kill) WHAT ARE THE ODDS OF THAT!!?? (1 in 8000) AT THE MOST DIRE OF MOMENTS, WITH THE VERY LAST SPELL, AGAINST THE VERY MOST POWERFUL FOE!!"
Imagine it in slow-motion: *the Mage yells Acid Splash* *gestures in the arcane ways and a small floating blob of acid shoots from his hand* *The foe does not look concerned (other Acid Splashes have done him little harm)* *but in a moment of inattention the blob flies in the foes direction and hits it in the eye! passing through it and damaging the brain behind!* *and the most powerful foe collapses forward with a surprised look in this face*

What a memorable moment ^_^, and what euphoric celebration afterwards ^_^
