    How's the swim cap? I'm thinking about getting one for my kid but my wife says they're a real hassle to get on/off.

    I've never had to help her with one, so no idea! She didn't have one until she started competing.

    In my experience it's no harder than socks (or a condom). Pull long hair into a bun like loop. Fold up the bottom half of the cap. Place on small child's head and roll down. Tuck in any stray hairs.

    Casey, if you ever need to help her with the swim cap, I'd be disappointed if you didn't use the trick where you fill the cap with water first and pop it on.

    Also, they're fragile. As we found out when one broke at a meet and we didn't have a spare.

    Aren't they made of rubber? I would've thought it would be more resilient than that.

    I assumed some kind of latex.

    Depending on if you are trying to keep her hair dry or just out of her face they also make them out of swimsuit material too and I've found those are easier.

This is my gaming circle minus my ACKS players. I am such an asshole. Since they're in the big city now, the players really wanted to know if there were any magic weapons for sale. ACKS ain't 3e or 4e though. There is exactly one magic weapon for sale. I rolled randomly to see what it was and... ...it's a cursed -2 sword. So I told the players there's a weapons dealer/fence who's looking to get rid of a magic sword he's gotten ahold of...cheap. Only 6,000gp when usually a +1 item would be 10,000gp. So far they are not suspicious. They're going to be so pissed at me. I can barely contain my excitement.
