Ran across this great quote today, while reading a book review in the Wall Street Journal (hey, they have great articles):
John Adams wrote to his wife, Abigail, about a momentous day during the proceedings of the Second Continental Congress in Philadelphia. Adams predicted that the day “will be celebrated by succeeding generations as the great [...]

You TF2′ers, I say again - download Day of Defeat Source while it’s free this weekend.
LINKY LINKY CLICK HERE THEN CLICK PRELOAD
Had a blast tonight. Our server admin, Bat21, got the problems sorted (except our admin mod was making the server crash….we removed it). Good stuff.

The game feels like DoD did before Source. [...]

More on this later….the Day of Defeat Source forums on steampowered are ridiculous at the moment. Great for a laugh, but sometimes so pathetic it invokes pity. Will throw in my two cents later regarding the outcry and pandemonium (Bone, that’s how it’s spelled. You tried to spell it when we were [...]

The beta’s no more a beta! It’s all grown up and Achieving great things (although…having some trouble updating the FNF server….on the phone with Bat21 as I type this)!

Clicky! It’s fairly interesting!

I don’t want this to turn into a TF2 Only Blog, but the DoD:S update is dragging it’s feet, the Pyro Update came out (with all the attendant enthusiasm for new maps), and we haven’t been playing on FNF’s DoD:S Beta server. It’s hosted on Bat21’s home dsl and is pretty laggy. Nevertheless, [...]

Major Malfunction does a jig after eliminating yet another Pyro update maniac.

As expected, there was a lot of Pyros, it was raining Achievements, and a good time was had by all on FNF. Even some johnny-come-lately Medics were following Pyros around, trying to mop up the Bedside Manner Achievement (healing someone as they get an achievement). I got that one myself, tonight. No, [...]

Y’alls are so hip I’m sure you’ve found this already, but for those like me who are slow:
The Pyro Update Page
It’s got the whole dish on what’s coming tomorrow. Er, today. I’m up too late.
