Born in 1975, the product of two beautiful parents. Raised in West Baltimore—not quite The Wire, but sometimes ill all the same. Studied at the Mecca for some years in the mid-’90s. Emerged with a purpose, if not a degree. Slowly migrated up the East Coast with a baby and my beloved, until I reached the shores of Harlem. Wrote some stuff along the way.

WoW Talk

By Ta-Nehisi Coates

Aug 5 2009, 9:00 AM ET Comment

Sorry guys, spent yesterday clearing out a couple things. I wish I could say I spent it WoWing it up--but my server didn't come up till 9 EST. Did manage to have some fun clearing out three wings of Naxx. Also did the new instance this morning. The fascinating thing for me is how far we've come from Blackrock Depths, when an instance could stretch endlessly. I've actually never finished BRD. Just for kicks, I'd love to get a party of 60-ish players and try to run the whole thing. Anyway, I got me some new legs. I ain't complaining.
