My wife loves playing D&D. We've played for years but have not had a group in a while. It is one of our D&D players that came and stayed with us while we were living in Spain.
Your kids are getting old enough... time to start running a family game.

@scottalanmiller You guys should check out that online service... Roll20? One of our ML guys uses that. @JaredBusch or @Dashrender ?
I love Roll20, I was running a semi-regular D&D game using it for several months.

They are starting to play some RPGs on the computer. Nearly to D&D time.

I have used roll20 for over a year now. It is a good platform. My game would be better if I spent more time in it ahead of time, but I rarely have enough free time for that.
I have been running my online campaign since 1999 with a variety of virtual tabletops. They keep getting better and better.

Comes with the ability to make the wife happy. Worth full price , but happy to have it for 1/3.

That backpack is normally $300+? WTF? What makes it so valuable?
I was just at Lucas Film in SF, and their embroidered backpack was only $150 (still way more than I was willing to pay).
-
Yeah I'm content with a $20 backpack.
What makes that one, or any backpack worth more?

No not married, but been with her for 9 years.

Every backpack that I have was free. Mostly I was Spiceworks ones from conferences and one Teksystems one from Christmas 2004 that was dropped off at a consulting gig for me.

LOL, you know I am - and sure, she has a purse that was a few hundred by some designer...
But I didn't notice a designer name.. is there one? and again, what makes that bag special? It looks actually quite the opposite, very plain, to me. -

The inside also has a label pointing to http://www.waxedcotton.com/

Plain doesn't mean that it doesn't have a "name" that makes it the trendy thing to have and spend way too much on, and just because all of your backpacks are free doesn't mean your wife uses them. Hey @scottalanmiller , does "Vera Bradley" ring a bell?

Oh I agree - never said plain doesn't mean no name. But is a nobody made that exact same backpack it would sell for $40 and no one would buy it.... but because some designer that the fashion industry gives credit to put their name on it... suddenly that $40 bag is worth $350... But hey.. if people are willing to pay.. who am I to care.
