Heh, it was the elves of course.
"It was forged in the magic of the powers that all the surface elves hold dear," said Malchor (the bequeathing wizard). "Of the stars and the moon and the mysteries of their souls. You deserve it, Drizzt Do'Urden, and it will serve you well."

Nope. Stop right there. Who names their sword fucking Twinkle, even if it does actually twinkle? Maybe a 6-year old girl, but that's about it. I've never read a Drizzt book in my life (and I don't intend to), but I'm starting to suspect that he actually got kicked out of Menzoboranzen (or however you spell it) because he was a fucking sissy boy. Or it could be more along the lines of "A Boy Named Sue". Perhaps he is just a sociopath looking for a way to start a fight. "Yeah it's twinkle you got a problem with that" It could also be very Miyamoto Musashi as in this opponent is not worthy of a true sword I will fight them with Twinkle.

In the Drizzt books I read, he didn't have names for his weapons. He did carry two scimitars, though.
I think twinkle is the noun version of the verb to twink. As in, somewhere along the lines someone twinked Drizzt. At least that's my story, and I'm sticking to it.

Speaking of weapons with silly names, a character in my group a couple of years ago had a sword named Organ Donor.

Also, this is my personal favorite take on the Drizz't phenomenon: www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0044.htmlIt's soooo true... (Possible loss-of-geek-cred confession: I like OOTS so much more when it's just shallow jokes rather than "deep" story.)

Bill played a character in a post-apocalyptic fantasy game with a parking meter used as a mace. It was called "Violation"

A DM I gamed with years ago introduced a magic sword called Cocknocker - it was great until you accidentally unleashed the source of its enchantment . . . a demon that had been trapped inside of and bound to the blade . . . If I recall correctly it would be pretty pissed off for about 3-5 combat rounds and attack anything in sight before being bound by the blade again

Will the happy jacks film "Storking Amber Diceless" be one of the prizes for the 2 sides, 1 epic contest? If so, will it be made available for retail sale, and will it be in high def blue ray?

Jack Chick story.
In my public high school my science teacher pulled me out of a class to give me the 'Dark Dungeons' pamphlet, and a discussion about how concerned he was about me.
I had been reading one of the 'Gord the Rogue' books by Gary Gygax in his class because I was bored senseless and was answering all his questions correctly.
I made sure to keep a desk between him and me... dude creeped me out.

To continue in the vein of silly names for awesome weapons... I had a friend who was playing a paladin with a GIANT FUCKING MACE. He named it "the Board of Education".

Hey douchbags just wondering what the song from the end of the show was called. As a father who first child was born while he was overseas I found it profoundly moving. I'll be honest that was the first time out of the roughly 30 podcasts of yours I've listen to I actually listen to the end song. It reminded me just how lucky I am to have come home safe thanks guys.

The title of that song is, "Why Are You Cryin'" It's track 5 off of the most recent Boggards' CD titled "Wish You Were Beer." JiB
