Around the Web: some useful advice, a Wii crossbow, and a photographic Far Side reenactment

Torie Atkinson

The Recently Deflowered Girl - An Edward Gorey-illustrated guide to that potentially awkward morning-after sitaution.

Wii crossbow with laser sights - Until there’s a Battle of Hastings game, I don’t see the appeal.

Ian McKellan news - McKellan is meeting with Guillermo del Toro to discuss his upcoming role in The Hobbit movies. More immediately he has been enjoying his part in the Prisoner remake—a little too much. Don’t forget, you can watch all 17 episodes of the original ’60s series here.

Venomous mammal caught on camera - Just about the cutest venom-toothed shrew you’ll ever see.

Another Watchmen featurette - Don’t worry, there will be plenty more of these in the coming weeks.

D20 flails - For both kinds of LARP, ifyaknowwhatimean.

The Far Side reenacted in photos - Some of these are just eerie.

Wii crossbow + laser sights = Wii game in which you play Chewbacca!

Bawww...
The first link doesn't work for me. And it sure looked like such a handy item - if not a sure resource for every 'dubious occasions', then at least an inspiration...

@ 4 -- I saw it yesterday, but it does appear to have been deleted, probably because it was a massive copyright violation. We can only hope whoever currently owns the rights happens to have seen how popular it was and reprints it.
