Merry Christmas

Twas the week of Winter Vale
and all though the game
people were talking
about just one name
Twas Greatfather Winter
we all wanted to see
What would he leave us
under the Christmas Tree?
A gnome whispered to me:
“it’s a gun you will find“ 
but whatever he brings, 
I really don’t mind
More bag room would be nice

Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving WoW players!  I hope you all have a safe and happy holiday.  And to our boomkin friends, I hope not too many of you are mistaken for turkeys and slain as part of the feast!  I’m off to have a huge dinner at my parents in an hour, hopefully just enough time to [...]

Day of the Dead

Well, this holiday was a bit…. weak. There is one achievement, which you get by doing /dance with an NPC in the graveyard of your home city. Easiest place to go is in Dalaran, in the little grassy area west of the commerce exchange. Dancing with Catrina will turn you into a [...]

Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween WoW-ers! No raiding for me tonight, I’ll be trick-or-treating with the kids Just a reminder that it’s your last day to get those “Hallowed Be They Name” achievements done. My little cow is still crossing her fingers to get “Sinister Calling” but I think my luck is running out! [...]

Headless Horseman

First of all, Blizzard, you’re a tease.  You give my poor cow the quest to go to Scarelt Monestary and investigate the graveyard (available at level 65) and then tell me I’m not high enough for the followup to summon him (level 75)… harsh!  
So yes, more free epics, and I guess that’s OK.  I have [...]

Pirates, Brewfest and the Path of Cenarius

Hello druids!  Let’s start with pirate day…. what’s the point?  So I fly down to booty bay (stealth in of course because I was a bloodsail long long…. long before there was an achievement for it) and drink a drink with the captain for the joy of 10 achievement points that don’t count towards any meta.  Um, ok.  Whatever.
Brewfest I kinda [...]

Casual Cows meet Fire Festival

Well last night we did another round with our lowbie tauren.  Being that it’s fire festival, we decided it might be fun to touch a few fires and see if we could buy a dress.  The problem of course came with the fact that we were level 7.  The running… well that kind of sucked, [...]

Fire Festival

 
Ah, the fire festival.  I remember this event back in the day… back when the horde and alliance celebrated together, and didn’t put out each other’s fires.  Back when the spirit of summer pet was a quest, and not bought with flowers, and when all my alts had burning shoulders because I only had to run them [...]
