| So, I cheated, and my last Dear-Vulkar didn't get posted, so since I know you're busy with real-life and such, just feel free to psot this and the last one alongside each other.
Hey everyone, So, life a little later into the field, and life is going well. As said in the last message that before I came here, I'd gone over six years since I rode a bike, so I had a bit of a rough start. But really, I couldn't have asked for a better area to get good at riding a bike. The area is mostly flat, but there are also biking trails, one place with a half-pipe, etc. So biking is going good. Well, it would be, but my companion and I were playing basketball yesterday, and when he plays, he plays all out. So, in a game where I was sitting out, he jumped up into the air, and came down on top of another missionary. There was an audible pop, and he is now on crutches. So biking isn't happenning at all. So, Thanksgiving this week, since I didn't get to post it like usual. First, we had the ever-traditional turkey-bowl, first with our ward, where we palyed for about two hours, and my companion, always true to himself, nearly killed himself playing. Then we palyed with other missionaries who are in our zone, and that was a far more epic game. We had a little over twenty missionaries, jerseys for each team with our names and number printed on them (I HAD to choose 42. All the nerds here know why), and we actually played with linemen. So, I played on the line, and while I really wanted to give an epic speech about how our team would hold that line, I was low on time, and thus resisted. Then we went over to a town out of our area, about half an hour away, and ate with a family in our ward, as well as about twenty or so other members. Five turkeys were cooked, each one in a different way, none of them in the oven. Exciting and undeniably awesome. And smoked turkey has power. Anyway though, on a completely new subject, with a somewhat awkward transition, you all would be surprised at what little things drives a missionary crazy in the field. First off, for those who don't know, when we're missionaries, we go by the title "Elder." So instead of being called, Alex Tigges, Tiggees, or whatever other nickname you give me, it is now "Elder Tigges." So, how does that drive me crazy? Well, mostly because of my mortal fear that when I get home and instroduce myself to someone, I won't be introducing myself as Alex, I'll say, "Hey, I'm Elder Tigges, erm, I mean, Elder Alex. Wait, no, just Alex. No Elder." I will then proceed to calmly cry myself to sleep. Anyway though, I sent out one mailing address, then sent out another. really then this address should work for the whole two years: Elder Alexander Tigges California Roseville Mission 8583 Watt Ave Antelope, CA 95843-9117 I'll still post the address for the area I'm in, but sometimes it'll take a little longer for me to get letters from that one, since transfers usually happen with very little notice. The address above, however, will forward any letters I get right to where I am. And seriously Xeogamers, write me. I don't know how our favorite board is going! But that's about all the missionary experiences you're getting this week, so... See you later! Elder Vulkar |

| The short man bent down and wrapped his wrists into the restraining device, grumbling and twisting his head with a whining grumble.
"There, you fucking happy, pig?" He asked, raising his chin. Then, under his breath, "hopeyousleptwelltooyoufucker-" On the other side of the room, Owen walked over to Franklin. Though the man with the gun was a cause for concern, he was too disoriented to really care. Franklin seemed in control. "Anyone have the passcodes?" |

| Season 1 is over!
I really liked the whole season, but as a reader of the comics, I think they missed a lot of golden opportunities. Here's to hoping the "fire all of the writers and free-lance" it thing works for the next season! |

| From what I played of Way of Samurai 3, I wanted to die. I loved the first two, but 3 was like "RUN EVERYWHERE TO BE BORED IN DIFFERENT LOCATIONS".
Currently playing Amnesia: Dark Descent, Saint's Row 2, and just beat Alan Wake. Jawsome. |

| Will it be the greatest game of the decade, or greatest game of all time? There are no other answers.
Discuss. |

| Saw Black Swan. Literally the most disgusting, terrifying movie I've ever seen, and most of it is psychological.
Natalie Portman gets the Oscar or I kill Sean Penn with a rusty switchblade. |

| I wasn't being serious, didn't mean to offend. I just started playing it and all the nostalgia of Diablo came floating back, and I am honestly shocked that you guys do not reciprocate said love.
I mean, with all the shittastic games being pushed upon us these days, I think Torchlight is pretty radical. |

| Legendary usage of smugface.
Also, I played through the first dungeon of OoT with my girlfriend to try to get her into Zelda. She enjoyed herself, so I consider it a mission accomplished. |

| I was talking to my friend about this in a Wawa (If you don't know what a Wawa is, I pity you.) and some older man, in his early 40's pitched in and said:
"Yeah, in Florida, right? (I nodded.) What a fucking nut. At least he killed himself so they don't have to waste money on him in prison." So there's your word from the street, Xeogaming. |

Glad to hear you're safe and sound!  You are an extremely courageous person, serving our country in such a dangerous place. If I was a religious guy, I'd say God bless you, but I suppose a "thank you" will have to suffice. |

| Awesome, but the fact that this was even a debate sickens me to the bone.
The DREAM Act, which would have passed some grand immigration form, fell through. :/ |

| I just started watching Mad Men, and I'm about halfway through the first season. I fucking love it.
But yeah, Boardwalk Empire is an outstanding quality show. Margeret Schroder is one of my favorite female characters ever. "I've been lectured to a great deal today by men who speak boldly and do nothing." <3 |

| So I don't know if anyone ever got around to it, but this game is a humongous ass waste of time, and it deserves to be shot.
Five times. |

| Hello everyone,
So first off, I've sent a few letters our, one even being an awesome simbattle post, but have yet to get a reply. Phoenix, I need to kill Braksa again! It's all good though, I know a lot of you are busy, so if you don't have the time...well make time, I need to hear about Xeogaming, xD. Anyway though, life has been going good around here in Roseville, I recently finished with my first companion, who, after having been stationed here in Roseville for seven months, has moved on to another area. I was assigned to stay here for at least another six weeks (probably it'll be more), and was given a new companion. So what does that mean? Yeah, that means that I, who still am not exactly the mast missionary I hope to be, am now the one taking charge of the area until my new companion gets to know the area a little better. Exciting, no? From the looks of it, it's happenned to several other newbies as well though, so things will be interesting for all of us. My new companion, Elder Groberg, is pretty good though. He's been on his mission for about twenty months, obeys the rules a lot better than my last companion, and has a strong testimony. I'm excited to be working with him, these next few weeks. Oh yeah, and unlike my last companion, he's got a bit of a sense of humor. He'll like, actually laugh at things I say! Craziness. Anyway, as for other life, last I e-mailed, I had kind of learned to ride a bike, but until this past week, I hadn't realized the awesomeness of what my bike has, and that is disc brakes. More than that, it's disc brakes in the rain. Which means I can do a bit of drifting. Or at least, I could if I was a little more coordinated. As it is now, I'm pretty sure I'd die trying it. I'm still working on more complicated things, like riding with no hands. Anyway though, we also started teaching a group of Muslims, and by teaching, I mean little teaching is going on. We took a couple members to both appointments, and rather than having a strong Spiritual discussion, as we should have, things got a little contentious. The first appointment ended fine, and we were invited to return, but in the second, the members we took with us went crazy, saying they were wrong, didn't know their religion, and generally bashed them as hard as he could. So, when I called last Friday to try and apologize, Nahid, wose house this meeting was at, yelled at me for about five minutes, and then hung up the phone, saying for me not to call again. But about an hour later, she called again, apologized, said she had prayed to God for forgiveness, and said that we could come by again, as long as we didn't bring those members again. So, happy ending, but something has really struck me about this group. First off, whilke they also argue, it more shows their passion and faith in God than anything. Yeah, they aren't the same religion as me, but their devotion and passion is great. And no, they aren't the extremist muslims. They follow the Quaran, and only the Quaran. They say that anyone who praises Muhammad after his death is full of sin. We also started teaching another woman, Christine, who has had a very interesting life. And by interesting, I mean horrible. And by horrible, I mean that there is almost nothing we want than to try and help her. She is a very nice lady, she's helped a ton of people but each time she does, it backfires. She loaned her car to a friend, and had it stolen. She let someone stay at her house when she was having trouble at her home, had things stolen, etc. And she was abused, not only in marriage, but also as a child. It's been bad enough for her that she plans to start up a charity organization to help other people who went through what she went through, showing that even in her worst experiences, she wants to pull out something good. Anyway though, I hope everything is going well for everyone at home, and feel free to send a letter something! Thanks, Alex |
