Delayed launch of Vampires vs. Werewolves

Much to our dismay, the launch of Vampires vs. Werewolves last Friday was delayed due to my home computer being attacked by a nasty virus. The good news is that this is not the computer from which the games are delivered to our clients, but there were a number of production files on that computer that we were unable to access. Damn viruses… some people have WAY too much time on their hands. The good (GREAT!) news is that we’re back up and running, and got the clean bill of health from...

Today I remember my grandfather, Francis (Frank) Clements. He was in the Canadian Navy during World War II aboard a number of ships. The one he spoke of most often was the HMCS Oriole. Like most sailors, he loved his rum, and always had a story that centered around drinking it. A Calgarian through and through, he grew up in Ogden in a house that is no longer there. He and my grandmother built their house in Spruce Cliff, and when they did, they were the only house around, and they looked out onto...
