![]() Few people led quite as dynamic a life as the man who would come to be known simply as “The Greatest.” Journalist Jonathan Eig takes us back to the turbulent 60s, when a young Cassius Clay went from being an Olympic hero to a divisive figure after making the personal and public shift to Muhammad Ali. And speaking up on both of these matters, with an electric presence and poetically blunt words, was Muhammad Ali, an amazing boxer who forever changed the sport with his vibrant personality and unorthodox style.Įvery time Ali stepped into the ring, due in large part to the fearless public stances he took in calling for peace and equality, it felt like more than just a regular boxing match it felt like a powerful political event, with this uncommonly gifted man somehow fighting on behalf of the disenfranchised and all those who were fed up with the status quo. At the time, there was unprecedented social upheaval due to the civil rights movement and widespread protests against the war in Vietnam. ![]() Few people embody the tumultuous social climate of the United States in the 1960s as well as Muhammad Ali. ![]() ![]() Is this collaboration what made Stormbringer into a game that still gets talked about 35 years later? I think that it is. T&T is a great game, and the first edition of it was remarkable in a number of ways, but it isn't the game that springs to your lips when looking for rules to run a dark fantasy campaign. This isn't a knock on Tunnels & Trolls, or St. Where Moorcock's Elric stories were apocalyptic in tone, and for a long time the standard bearer for the dark fantasy sub-genre, Tunnels and Trolls isn't. Andre really wasn't known for dark role-playing games. What was an inspired choice was that, along with in-house designer Steve Perrin, they reached out to Tunnels & Trolls creator Ken St. In 1977, Chaosium had already produced a licensed board/war game based on the setting and the character of Elric, and looked to expand their license into RPGs. Stormbringer came out from Chaosium in 1981, with the idea to adapt Michael Moorcock's seminal fantasy anti-hero to role-playing games. Considering that both games were the result of the design team at Chaosium, either would have been a win to talk about. I know that Stormbringer is a solid game, but I figured that Ghostbusters would have the more dedicated audience. ![]() When I put up the poll, I figured that Ghostbusters would win, hands down. ![]() ![]() ![]() Its been a while since I've read a book through a male point of view which was a nice change. " There are some slow spots, especially in the beginning but push through and you won't be disappointed. I find it one of those stories that support your believe in good character and struggling to keep up the fight for good. I love the story line and the characters.

Here is a quick description and cover image of book Little Red Riding Hood (An M M monster romance) Alternate Earth Tales written by Julie Mannino which was published in December 10th 2022. ![]() ![]() Brief Summary of Book: Little Red Riding Hood (An M M monster romance) Alternate Earth Tales by Julie Mannino ![]() ![]() ![]() Did this somehow fuse into a little story about Soseki, first rendered as "The moon is blue tonight" and then finally "The moon is beautiful tonight," gaining a gravitas as it went?Īnd yet, this anecdote about Soseki does somehow ring true. The right way - considering the Japanese cultural propensity to subtlety and intimation - was to say something like, "The moon is beautiful, isn't it?"ĭid he really say that? Or was this story just a post-war fabrication, an urban myth? Certainly, in the 1950s there was a massively best-selling song called "Because the Moon is Blue Tonight," with the moon standing as a symbol for love. No, that was not a correct translation, Soseki is supposed to have said. Soseki, so the story goes, when working as a teacher of English, had corrected a student who had translated "I love you" directly into Japanese as "kimi o aisu." It turns out that this is not something that Soseki ever wrote, nor indeed is there any written record of this anecdote before the 1970s, over 60 years after his death, though it seemed already by then to be widely believed. Was this episode buried in his complete works somewhere without my noticing? I had never come across this little story before, though it is in wide currency in Japan. ![]() ![]() Over 10 years ago, a complete stranger I met in a bar in Kyoto remarked to me, "Did you know that the novelist Natsume Soseki said that, in Japanese, you wouldn't express "I love you" directly but by saying "The moon is beautiful, isn't it?'" ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() You can also unlock hundreds of hours of exclusive content in The Barrens (Patreon).įacebook | Instagram | Twitter | Patreon | Store For further adventures, join the Losers’ Club over long days and pleasant nights via Apple Podcasts, Spotify, RadioPublic, Acast, Google Podcasts, and RSS.

Though Fly Davis’s design, with a patchwork canopy above the stage over the band, looks comfortingly homespun, there is a touch more gore on stage than there is in the enigmatic book.
