Putting monsters into Maptools can be time consuming. However, JamesManhattan, has made that task much easier now. Check out this thread for more information. It is an amazing set of macro’s. You simply cut the stat box from a PDF and paste it into this macro tool. It creates a token and everything for you.
You can find some video tutorials here.
Other folks have taken the macros that James made and extended them and enabled them to interact with other frameworks like DeviantNulls, Ramble’s, and Veggiesamma’s. Check ‘em out. It is amazing…

I was trying to have a conversation on the phone with one of my
co-workers. As I was helping him, I made an offhand comment
that it was quieter at my house with five kids than it was here at the
office. As if on queue, loud applause, cheers and clapping erupted
from the cubes behind me. My colleague then said, ‘They must be having some sort of celebration.’
I replied, ‘They’re sales people; they do that when they go to the bathroom.’
sigh… I’m just grumpy, I guess…

I consume a large amount of podcasts. One of the podcasts that I listen to is a D&D podcast that is a recording of live play. The podcast is called Combat Cast. Anyway, they were looking for another player and put out a notice to listeners to apply. I applied for the open slot and after a few Q&A sessions I was invited to join their group.
I am thrilled about the prospect of joining this group of players because they are a blast to listen to. I will be joining them on Monday nights for a two hour gaming session. I will be playing a human swordmage called Drew Steel. You can see my character stats on the iPlay4e web site (Drew Steel)
