Gary Gygax Fails his Save vs. Death

Heard it on Fark, which heard it on a gaming forum. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gary_Gygax.

Whatever your opinions of the man, he did create something enduring for all us geeks.

This Will Probably Add to the Number of Turds I'm Going to Smoke in Hell

Reading Slacktivist today, I came across the best idea ever!

Rapture insurance.
We'll look after your pets in the event of the Rapture. How can you enjoy your time in heaven if you're worrying about Fido or Fluffy locked in a house that no one will ever go to again?
Make the whole thing good for a year and send them a certificate. You'd probably sell quite a few to people who enjoy the irony.

Sell ads in religious magazines and newspapers that are widely read in evangelical areas.

Tempting as this idea is, I'll go with my Pez Dispenser Vibrator Conversion Kit idea instead - I prefer making money by (indirectly) giving people pleasure, rather then by taking advantage of their gullibility.

Looks like somebody beat me to it. C'est la vie.
