charity

i have been toying with the idea of doing some good for charity (St judes children hospital)
I may have to wait until next year



my idea was to start a charity donation website for them. then if the packers dont win the super bowl, i would get a tattoo of any team (college or pros) that the person(or group) with the most donated money...granted it wouldnt be a big tattoo or anything..but hoping if I raised enough money, i could deal with another teams tattoo
it would probably be too late in the season to get the hype to get a good chunk of change for the hospital.

i am going to try to come up with some other ideas...but if the Pack dont win the super bowl this year, I may just do this at the start of the season next year

unless i knew it could be big and happen quick (ie if anyone knows any reporters that could get this to go national very quick). if anyone has any other thoughts let me know

the St Judes Childrens Hospital has always had a special spot in my heart. Along with the V foundation





if you want to donate to either
St. Jude
for Jimmy V

things to do in elevators

Welcome back Peeps
yes I have peeps..some are made of Marshmallow


anywho
this post is all about messing with people in elevators

you have the classic from ghost

fun


things you can say (one liners )

1.push your floor and say
"we are taking this shit to a whole new Level"

2.as you are leaving a crowded elevator, turn and point to someone random and say "i am leaving you in charge and I want a full report"

3. on a crowded elevator..say " i suppose you are all wondering why I have gathered you here today"

4 as people are trying to get on..block the elevator and ask "do you have an appointment"

5 ask everyone getting on if they purchased a ticket. if not direct them to leave

6 start sniffing and then smell someone random and say "oh God, it is you...gross"


things to do

stand face first in a corner
give a hug to anyone that gets on
if someone bumps into you say" i prefer you buy me dinner before you can touch me there"
sing "oscar mayer wiener song"

You and a friend are the last to get on the crowded elevator last so your facing the doors, then they say, "well sure I'll take your case but u gotta tell me, why did you kill them?"and you say " cause they were staring at the back of my head

this is by far my favorite thing to do

the contest yes you can win something

no this is not the Seinfeld contest

the contest

but a different contest

My friend Cory visited Vegas this last weekend and made a bet for me

that the cubs would win the world series this coming year (2015)
it seems the odds are good for cubs winning 8:1
which means a bad payout if they win

now i am not a cubs fan..nor will i ever be

i have decided that anyone that can figure out why i would make such a bet has a chance to share in my good fortune(if somehow the cubs win it)


so FB message me, Google message me, email me (chaddelp@yahoo.com) or find a way to get your reason to me (other than posting in the comments) you wouldn't want others to get a chance because you screwed up

but i also request that you post a reply to the blog saying you sent me a message with a guess(so I can look for it)

i will run it for 2 weeks...then once that is up, I will take all the names that guessed(correctly), put in a hat and draw one winner (possible)
then if cubs win, i will give you 10% of what I win

XMAS Shopping and randoms



So I am horrible to Xmas shop for.

so if you want to get me something the link is here

Xmas Gifts


So hopefully I dont get in too much trouble for that

I am the worst person to shop for. I dont need anything or want anything.
So if the people out there in internets land can get The Boss( Springsteen) to give me a call or drop by, that would be a cool gift
or Get me Clay Mathews and I to walk out on Lambeau Field before a game to get the crowd pumped up to this song

Real American

of course we do poses. really, if anyone wants to get me a gift(i dont need it) make it be from the heart..or do something for charity (donation, spend time helping at a food bank etc)

I did ask Santa for the luck to pick better Fantasy Football teams next year..in one league I managed to get into the playoffs...with no good QB..so I think it will make an early exit



things are picking up on the blog. I may be running a little contest soon (a friend is going to vegas to make a bet for me)

pork chop sandwiches, football and pie in the face

i have to say the first DAY OF THE CHAD was a great one. each year  should get better and more popular as the Chads of the world find out

now it is coming to Fantasy football play offs...looks like my gambles did not pay off yet again. so i will not be getting any money..again. next year it is auto pick

at least my packers are doing well (so far). Moving Clay Mathews all over seems to have really helped. We will see sunday Vs New England



I have no gamer conventions until April (WHOSYERCON)
http://whosyergamers.org/


that will be the weekend before I open up the pool..so i will be rooting for April to arrive as soon as football is over

last week ish
i was in South Carolina.  I had a bet with my good friend jen that our friend Brian would see her first(photo bombing me)

she chose Heather seeing it first
well you can decide who won the bet


for the record, i let her chose first...so that is all her fault

it is best not to bet against me

now you know and knowing is half the battle

pork chop sandwiches





my fav starts at 2:31

Day of The Chad

i like day of The Chad, better.
so Wednesday before thanksgiving has been decided to be day of The Chad.  So it will easily be remembered.
A group of us Chads got together (it is 2015 so it was a quick Facebook post) and came up with a day.
This was the day it was going to be. That way the day changes every year.(other than being the day before thanksgiving

since I came up with Day of The Chad..I have decided (i took a vote and it was 1 to nothing) that I should be president of The Chad chapter
now some of you are asking why is there a chad day

well let me tell you why
#1 we decided..so it shall be

B. we wanted to be first..so the Taras of the world can copy us..we win

#5 we have a freaking country named after us...it may be 3rd world, but it counts..so suck it trebek

K.why the hell not. there is a day for everything else. we have people who are not pirates and walking around thinking they are on national pirate day..posers


so while the rest of you are getting ready for family crap. The Chads of the world will be taking a moment (at minimum ) or the whole freaking day and being Happy we are one of the Chads.
Day of the Chad 2016 will have Tshirts and stuff. We have to get the word out.

best things in life are

so I was sick as hell all last week and last weekend. Thanks Nerd-ebola
well i had to do manly outdoor things when I was sick as hell.
we had a snow storm coming in so stuff had to get done. I chopped wood for the fire place.


then it slowly started adding up

then finally all nice and neatly stacked

i ended up with 2 (completely split) 5 foot high, 1 foot deep and 6 foot long stacks of fire wood. i am pretty bad ass

so next
Put away all fall items and put together my snow blower and make sure it would run





then had to shovel(snow blow) the 0.25 mile drive way




so last weekend was a busy weekend
so as for my title..the best things in life are not free...they are the ones you have to work your behind off for

this weekend i went away for a mini work trip..i may post about that later

gamehole con day 2 part 2

so after the game, we ate at the hotel bar then prepared for the WORLDS worst dungeon crawl with you guessed it


hosting/dming the event
there were 4 seats sold at $50 each(none of us got those)
2 seats would have a roll off for $20 donation ...note the money for this event went to the  Madisonharvest food bank(which they raised over $1000 for)
Paul, Cory, Brando and I all donated. and got into the roll off(i big foam 20 sided die)
 of course I roll a 9, Paul rolls a 9, Brando rolls a 19, Cory rolls a 20..there were a bunch of other rollers too.
Cory was automatically in, Brando tied with the Gamehole con founder...so they had to roll again
brando rolled a 9..the other a 3

so brando won.

i was too busy laughing to pay attention to what happened in the first half..they all survived

the second half I was annoyed by a late arrival(to the audience )..he thought he was the funniest person ever...I did not laugh once..although, i almost punched him in the face once

long story short(too late)
the dungeon ended on a dream with the Dungeon Bastard kissing Brando on the cheek (he was roll playing as a princess) and Brando's character awoke in jail..the whole adventure never happened

side note
i finally got the post convention cold
I have Nerdebola

it sucks. trying to get well

gamehole con day 2 part 1




So saturday started off with Breakfast at Original pancake house in Madison(one of my favorites)
we loaded up on omelets and hash browns
we needed the energy.

Paul went off to play board games and Sesame street vs Cthulhu (he said it was awesome)





while Cory, Brando and I sat around and discussed a game Brando was running and helped him with some Dm ideas
Then it was time for our 6 hour marathon game with Luke Gygax


The Blighted Lands: Tower of Akbaba




a module Luke wrote and will be kick starting soon
we started off picking our characters I was a thief, Brando was fighter thief, Steve was some kind of archer, and Cory was a Cleric. the other guys were fighters etc
i was going to play a cleric /thief and I asked if i could change a spell to acid arrow(being me and being funny)
most of you wont get that joke..Luke Gygax if known also as Melf (Melf's acid arrow) by me not calling it that was a nice Ice breaker...plus Luke is a Bears fan and I was wearing my Packer Jersey
i ended up going with the regular thief

our group was given a map and a save the princess mission.
so we followed the map into the sewers
we had some mini battles along the way. spiders, dire rats, acid mold and some other things.
my character(being out front) took some damage along the way
we all made it to the tower and started our way up
first step was a trap..which we stepped over. brando was first and didnt see the trap on step7
to which he took fire damage and then rolled down the steps and landed on step one...and he took falling rock damage..which killed him
so we looted the body and finished the tower.

that was end of part one of the adventure
we didnt take many pics(none)
rapid sum of part 2

we had 6 rooms to go into to get us items to help with final battle
few arrows of dragon slaying. potions fire resistance etc
then we went up steps to free the princess...who was guarded by a dragon
so we potion up..i stupidly took 2 potions which on the roll chart canceled each other out

then spread out..fighters died with fire breath..
the 2 thieves tried to pick lock off cuffs to free the princess, could do it. magical locks...so they decided to cut her hands off...which got her away. the other thief took off and died.
so it was my halfling thief, leading the princess and dragon left. i took damage and made it to the stairs and down with 2 points left

the guy who hired us , showed up and said we failed..and killed me







part 2 is coming for the worlds worst dungeon crawl
