I've got my twelve sided die and I'm ready to roll with a wizard and my goblin crew.
My friends are comin' over to my mom's basement bringin' funyuns and a mountain dew.
{I got a big broad sword made out of cardboard and that stereo's a-pumpin zeppelin.
It's that time of the night we turn on the black light let the dungeons and the dragons begin.}
It's D and D!
Fighting with the legends of yore.
It's D and D!
Never kissed lady before. {Nope!} Whoo!
Now the Lord of the Rings, the dark crystal and things.
We use these as a reference tool.
And when we put on our cloaks and tell warlock jokes we're the coolest kids at the school...
{No we're not.}
I know.
Now Teich's a real bastard but a fair dungeon master.
He's got hit points and charisma to lend.
{And I rehearse in my room, or what I call the dragon's tomb, when I'm not out with my girlfriend.}
It's D and D... wait...
Sorry, You got a girlfriend?
{Yeah. Yeah, I got a...no.}
It's D and D!
Warriors that terrify.
It's D and D!
Virgins 'till the day we...
1,2,3,4!
Die!

While I never played the pen & paper version, many of my night were spent on computer games based on D & D....
And I loved the D & D cartoon, too.
Sail on, Gary

He blew his last saving throw!
I started playing D&D in 1975 and made friendships that have lasted a lifetime. I learned so much from the game, ranging from math skills to social skills, as well as the ability to be creative. Before playing D&D I didn't know how to figure percentages, nor did I understand the laws of probabilities but I do now and I'm pretty good at them.
