You know, I was going to say they should try and see if they can get away with releasing a rerun, just for laughs. In just about any other setting, that might actually work, but we're nerds - the same group who notices if Commander Riker has the wrong number of collar pins in episode 71 of Star Trek.

That was just a joke, right?
Right?
When Ed says things like that, he means to be telling a joke of some kind. When it doubt, remember, it's probably Ed's humor. He always means well.

It's true, we all have beautiful minds deft at details and fault finding.

Episode 41 screeches into the station three days late.
A number of talented women designers have published their own games over the last few years. This is the first time we’ve had the privilege to speak with one the Array. Make that two. We invited Danielle Lewon on to talk about Kagematsu, her game of love, honor, and shame set in feudal Japan, and we also speak with Emily Care Boss about her zine, RPGirl that features women designers and publishers.
Kagematsu: http://kagematsu.wordpress.com/
RPGirl: http://rpgirl-zine.blogspot.com/
Ed’s Pick: Raise the Red Lantern
Rone’s Rant: “Valentine’s Day”
Also Mentioned:
* Pirate Jenny
* Amorphous Blobcast
* I Would Knife-Fight a Man
* Dogs in the Vineyard (Atomic Array 026)
* Fear the Con

Nah, we couldn't be. I think you're actually an alias of Uncle Joey. :P

Is it a coincidence that I watched Kagemusha for the first time a couple of weeks ago? I think not.
Ed: I bought a red lantern after seeing that movie. Luckily, no woman in my life (and now, my wife) ever got what the red lantern was about. Am I a bad person?
Heck, we have a pair of red lanterns hanging here in the living room. I got a miniature one in the bedroom.
Giggidy Giggidy Goo!

I don't think it's a kwinky dink eeder.
And no... you're not a bad person for having that lamp. However, if a comely lady guest slept in your guest bedroom and you hung the lamp outside her room as a gag... THEN you'd be approaching badnith.

That's a very uncoulier thing to say. (only rhymes if you know how to pronounce that name)
I'd try something with Saget, but it all turns out so wrong.

The Jade |

And that short lived sitcom that went bust...
I like Saget, but I saw this newer HBO special of his last year, a return to stand-up specials of sorts, and I found it to be an unexpected car wreck. It didn't seem like he took the time to tour a little and see what jokes works and what didn't. Same could be said of the Roseanne Barr and the Kevin Nealon special. Conversely, Seinfeld did a movie called Comedian (I think) which is a deliberately unfunny look at how he toured small clubs to get his stand-up material tighter. Man, a lot of the clubgoers gave that man no respect as he relearned the ropes. His eventual HBO special was a little funnier than the rest, and I can only imagine he may have been aided by being willing to take the blows and pay his dues all over again.

It's annoying until you join the cult and scream it aloud yourself. Then you'll know the bliss of the One True Way. Then you'll be abrasively loud and doe-eyed shouting Kagematsu like the rest of us. 20th Century Fox is even making a move about the phenomenon called The Stepford Gamers.

Japanese is an awesome language. Women say everything sweetly, men say everything as if they are passing a stone. May I be reincarnated in feudal Japan.
Very true.
And when men are talking to their wominz in private, they often take on yet another tone, almost an effeminate one to demonstrate tenderness

Projecting perhaps?
I accept that Rone is not a multiple personality of Ed's, but I was curious while listening if Danielle was a multiple personality of Rone's... Riffing on his Kazei 5 schoolgirl maybe.

Actually it was a top Japanese TV anchorwoman in New York (as in news in Japanese for Japanese living in the US) who told me about that. I was new to learning the language and she was a client so I grilled her with a bunch of questions. Really sweet lady.
Regarding spoiler #3: Balls getting bleeped would have ruined the perfect architecture of your set-up. I can't do that to high art. I just can't.

Why, when I read this, did I immediately picture Rone as a Gigolo... :/

Gigolo seems like a nice job at first because the women you're sent to often just want an escort to an event, and the ones who want more are either injured souls in need of restoration or freaks in need of a dirty fix. They're usually over 26 and under 55 and range anywhere from not half bad looking to "Seriously? I'm getting paid for this?"
But then you get your first octogenarian client and worse, the fires are still burning within her. I mean, sure, A full plate of dentures out has its charms in a dark room, but when you get her loose wrinkled skin caught in your wristwatch band and in trying to pull away cause a flying squirrel's wing to sheet out and away from her body. Damn that's nasty. Nasty enough to make one walk away from a life of easy money, daily sexual intrigue, and undiagnosable cocktails of STDs fusing together synergistically like some viral-based Voltron. Why I knew one Portuguese pro stud who grew a functioning carousel on his man business. Tragic. He's making decent money in a sideshow these days though, so at least there's that.

I knew a koala in prison who used to strut the halls in a sleeveless white T, black eyepatch and a bad attitude. His name was Ruckus Noruckew and he laid into newly arriving inmates straight away, setting the tone of their future time with a beat down and maybe worse. He had a thing for blondes and when that little bugger started buggering, it was impossible to shake him loose.
At least... at least that's what I heard from other people. What? These claw marks on my hips? Uh... stretch marks from when I lost a lot of weight by eating a footlong sandwich each day from a fast food chain that promised me eating bread was the key to shedding hundreds of pounds. See? No lies here.

Hitchcock's antics are larger than life. It's like if an unpaid Evel Knievel Brundleflied with Charles Bukowski while on an RPG writing kick. It's a show, man, and he don't need him no back up dancers.

I may have to re-mix/re-cut your Big John song. Is that alright?
I was really hoping you'd like that.
I expanded Big John Lonnigan it into a full song that will be for sale. That chorus was just too much fun not to build on. The verse lyrics are absolutely ridiculous. <g>
So in answer to your question, have at and have fun with any sounds I ever send out there. I am thoroughly honored, dude. I just want to keep control of the public release of the song, because I stand to make a good $5 there. Maybe, and I'm not suggesting that I'm always this optimistic, but maybe just maybe? $6.
::Boldly drops the mike. Exits the stage::
"Appetizer money, y'allllllllllllll!"
It'll go through a complete revamp in the studio but I have a decent rough version to guide me. I have lyrics for what comes after the second chorus but haven't laid that last part down yet. Probably get to that today.
