Bob I wanna do bad things with you! I'm ready for the #trueblood season premiere thanks to SG member… http://t.co/AEjMXZUPju
PICS
And...
Woo for E3 leaks!!! You Don't Know Jack may give me a reason to tough my Wii again (until they make me a stripper pole...for the excersize of course)
In other Jack related news (which is, in fact, actually news) federal Marsals paid our friend Jack Thompson a visit. And, not to be outdone, Jack wrote another whiny letter complaining.
Funny, 'cause that's exactly what got him into the mess in the first place.
The original letter that prompted the Marshal visit:
We find yesterday that enemy combatants at Guantanamo are to get more due process from federal judges than what I am to have. I guess my "mistake" was not killing 3000 people to make my point...
I demand a hearing.
I was kind of hooping part of his demand involved holding his breath until he turned blue or some sort of middle-of-the-room tantrum...oh well.
This letter stems from the Florida Bar's attempts to dis-bar him for no less than 10 years (the equivalent of making him sit in a corner with a dunce cap on and think about what he's done).
Of course, the judge did what any video game and sanity-loving person would do...send court marshals over to prevent the "Thompson Jhiad" from whiping out all our video games (and hogging all the heavenly pixelated virgins...)
And, in response, Thompson whined...
The notion that I pose some sort of physical threat to you or to the judiciary or to anyone else down here is a cruel joke. The two Marshals said, "If you had actually hand-delivered the letter to Judge Moreno, we would be concerned." To that I said, "But I did. I did that last week because the gentlemen at the metal detectors would not deliver it, and THEY TOLD ME TO DELIVER IT TO YOU. I buzzed into your inner offices on the thirteenth floor, and I politely handed the letter to your clerk, who politely took it.
Â
If I were a danger to anyone, that would have been the time for me to have proven it, right? In fact, I have never threatened anyone in my entire life, and you know that, and the Marshals said they knew that. They were apologetic about being dispatched to my home. This is outrageous, Judge. Simply outrageous.  Â
I searched for a Jack/Jem related image in order to get the full "Simply Outrageous" effect...but none were to be found. (Too soon?) But, I love the if I was a threat I should have already attacked by now...I think I heard Jong Il say the same thing...worked well for him too.
ALSO...in non-Jack news:
I went and saw Indy 4 on Sunday and I enjoyed it. It wasn't perfect, but it was good.
However, there is one FAIRLY large change I would have made.
Sure, you could call it:
Indy: We did something with a crystal skull.
BUT...
This is where the marketing team fell short. The title should have been...
Indy: We've repeatedly hit Shia LaBoeuf in the nuts.
Golden.

Jack Thompson is a scourge upon the videogame industry and it's about time they disbar him. Also,
