You might have read somewhere that Jack is contacting our police department and trying to get us arrested, which is quite true. Here is the document he faxed them.

I thought you might like to see the mail I got from Jack this afternoon:

It was only a matter of time until a mod team took Jack Thompson's disgusting revenge fantasy and made it flesh - and, just as I suggested, it was deemed insufficient.

Perhaps you read the letter from the National Institute on Media and the Family in which they distance themselves from Jack Thompson. Well Jack has responded to that letter with two letters of his own. He makes some vague legal threats which I have come to discover are sort of his bread and butter. You also get the impression after reading his letters that he believes he was cut loose simply because he is too “hardkore”.

I doubt very seriously that such frank discussion will become de rigeur. But there are pressures upon me at the moment, weights, and in a way you are reading my diary. Always have been.

We were supposed to be on with these guys a couple weeks ago, but we completely fucked it up. Here is the new info:

Check this article, real quick. I think you're going to like it.

Jack Thompson really did call him, but I should tell you how that came to be.

Kurtz posted his Panda Attack shirts today and so it seems only appropriate that I link our KOA shirts.

My email sig had my phone number in it. Jack actually just called and screamed at me for a couple minutes. He said if I email him again I will “regret it”. What a violent man.

You may have seen Jack’s proposal mentioned on various news sites. He’s offering 10 grand to charity if a game developer makes a game based on his insane proposal.

He didn’t say this because he doesn’t think that it matters to you guys but I think it’s important to mention that everyone is okay now. The baby is still in there cooking and doing baby stuff.

I thought this one turned out well, but then again, it's more than sixty percent text. I would.

We made a comic about it, but as I understand it there was an actual card sent to Kara on the topic. I suggested to Gabe that tab selecting enemies in that scenario was probably unwise, and he gave me a look that told me he'd had this conversation already, with someone else. Perhaps recently.

I was on my way into the office this morning when Tycho called me. He told me he would be coming in late today and he asked me to let you all know that his post would also be late. The reason he gave for his tardiness was acceptable so I suggest we all cut him some slack.

We're playing through the second Digital Devil Saga, which we thought would be a good idea... for some reason. For a while there I celebrated the fact that I (or the natural erosion of a man's principles) had brought him into the genre. It hadn't occurred to me until recently that we're into it for entirely different reasons.
