Beat Joffre, Get Free Drink!
The Silver Chair Bookstore just got in a bunch of new games from Out of the Box and PIN, fantastic, fun, smart games companies that we love (especially as Christmas approaches).
One game I've been looking forward to for a while was created by the mastermind behind one of your favorite games, Apples to Apples. The game I've been waiting for...Ninja vs. Ninja! Aw yeah!
The offer on the table is this: if you come in and score first against me (not beat me, just score first, in case you're pressed for time) in Ninja vs. Ninja, I'll give you a free drink of your choice.
You can even pick our new hot Raspberry Chai if you would like. H'mmm...Ninja...

National Novel Writing Month Kickoff
We had a little group Saturday morning that cranked out a couple of thousand words each. Good times, I certainly enjoyed sitting around the table with some coffee and some mutual encouragement going on. I hope any of you who are doing this have managed to keep the momentum up!
