My 10-year-old, known by old PDDers as “Little Pirate”, wants to start playing “Dungeons & Dragons”. Can anyone help explain what “Dungeons & Dragons” is to him? He wants to play the game because he’s a HUGE Futurama fan.
And are there any D&D kids groups in Duluth?

Geek Prom is only three days away!
Are you feeling appropriately geeky/nerdy/dorky?
Is this?
On April 18 I’m going to be hosting the first ever Sci Fi Spelling Bee at the Geek Prom and I need your help. I’m looking for words, terms, people and place names, and so on that are native to some science fiction franchise for use in the bee.
Please give me the following information for your entry.
Word (eg – phaser, Kashyyyk, frak)
Origin (what franchise) (eg – Star Trek, Star Wars, Battlestar Galactica)
Usage (eg – “Set your phaser to stun!” “Chewbacca went back to Kashyyyk.” “What the frak are you talking about?”)
If possible also give me some Documentation (a web link would be good) supporting your entry.
Also, these words don’t have to be hard. They can be fairly simple or intermediate words. They just have to be sci fi words.
So that we don’t spill the beans on all the words for the contestants, please don’t put them in the comments, but send them to me at [email protected].
Thanks for your help! This should be fun!
