“I memorized the clowns code” thats a great sentence. Made me laugh out loud. Love your idea about the 3 funny people in lego. You have great lego ideas, I made a small lego trainset per your idea about the smallest train set possible, just a minifig, standing, presumably waiting on a train. Great stuff.
Big fan of Douglas Coupland, I discovered Generation X in a bookstore in Mobile Al. in 1991 on its first printing, being a Sigue Sigue sputnik/ Generation X, fan the title jumped out at me, and it became a instant favorite, guess I’ve read just about everything of his since then, at this point, he’s just one of those authors that I read everything of, regardless if he will ever surpass previous acheivements, it kinda becomes beside the point, /I just like his writing. Agreed on Microserfs, I remember catching glimpses before publication in Wired, but I imagine that you do too. Like Bob mentioned, its kinda scary how similar we all are.

I’ve been overwhelmed with the outpouring of support for The Gunkcast! I really thought it a big joke when I did it! Thanks Frank for the mention and props on your episode… Also, I am coming to a much better understanding of the “creative commons” thing now!
