Today was going down the tubes fast (narrowly avoided getting laid off again, had to take a 10% pay decrease until Sept and then who knows what will happen) until I saw these:
Mongolian Ogre conversions from Jake Landis on his Master Splinter Pizza Kits modeling blog! Apparently Jake used to work for Games Workshop and is just getting this blog going. His first addition is these awesome Ogres and a few Gnoblars as well. Check it out!
Check this out too! It has been awhile since I did a beer review.

Deschutes Brewery - Buzzsaw Brown Seasonal Ale
Beer Type: American Brown Ale
Appearance: 12 oz. brown bottle with the now welcomed Deschutes label (a sort of off-white with a central image of a buzzsaw in this case). Beer poured a dark amber with an off-white head which faded with little lacing.
Smell: Sweet roasted malt with a bit of caramel.
First Drink: Sweet with the malt at the front and another sweet honey like flavor.
Mouthfeel: Smooth but a little oily. Carbonation is just right.
Last Drink: Just a faint trace of bitterness but even that is masked by the dark sweet flavors or roasted malt and barley.
Drinkability: If you like Brown Ale you can't really go wrong with this one. Sweet like candy!
Notes: Picked this up in Fort Collins, CO on a road trip for the holidays. I haven't seen this around Austin yet which is a shame as I would certainly like to drink it again.
Verdict: 3.75 out of 5. A sweet and tasty beverage that left me feeling refreshed and happy.
