  1. Mark Forman Says:

    Yo Alvie and Computer King-you 2 bad boys rock. Good stuff both of you. Miss Mur always nice to hear what you have to say. Jack the shark-eh, keep swimming. LOL

  2. Jason C. Says:

    Alright! New cast!

    Cant listen now, about to pass out. Tired.

  3. RK Says:

    Glad you enjoy the music sir it always makes a fine gift :) Enjoyed this show a lot, first female yay! uh… so… Yes you have a good way of getting people to talk about what they have passion for that makes for good listening. I also wanted to mention that I did finish your short story from the other week which has stayed on my mind. I was even reminded of growing power parallels with the chess scene in X-men3 as well. Quite! Another great show, cheers.

  4. Mark Forman Says:

    Andrea’s VM-interesting-I haven’t a clue why that happened with your friends. Working out good for me. On music comment-right on. Open is where it’s at-all the better for you. In NY people were very segregated musically-don’t know if that’s changed.

  5. Andrea Says:

    Hey!

    Mark- isn’t that weird? and the funy part is none of them could explain what it was about Taiwan. One guy went there with a friend who basically abandoned him and he had to fend for himself with only knowing how to say “Can I have a beer” and “wheres the bathroom”, and somehow he loved it.

    I loved Chris Fishers stolen rap lyrics, and of course Alvie i heart you.

    Finally, Mur is the bomb. She never ceases to amaze me. I was never a gamer but somehow I still like hearing her talk about it. As for the being a woman podcaster, I think I am in the camp of why cant you just be a podcaster. I dont know about other computer fields but in the graphics field I have come across alot of sexism. At work everything is fine but as soon as there is client contact I get grief. Last week I was with a client and the guy couldnt look or talk to me the whole meeting, but then after the meeting we went out drinking and there he is all fucking over me. Asshole.

    I dont know I consider myself a feminist, I know I am a feminist, but Im not extreme. I am not uncomfortable with sexuality- were women we like sex too, there is nothing wrong with that, and I dont think all men are pigs. But at the same time my sexuality is not all I have to offer. I have a pretty hot brain too, and it can be frustrating when your brain is considered less because of the body it is in.

  6. Alvie Says:

    Huh? Wha?

    Oh, Im sure you had some really good points there, Andrea. Unfortunately I was too busy staring at your chest to listen to you…

  7. Andrea Says:

    Alvie you kill me. Your allowed to stare at my chest, I know you’ll respect me in the morning (I think?)

  8. Andrea Says:

    I forgot to say before that the Computer Kings contribution was really really awesome.

    Also the continuation of Star Wars and Dukes of Hazard almost ran me off the road this morning. I should sue you Jack Mangan

  9. Alvie Says:

    You think correct…

    Yknow, being a boring ass white male in America, there is no way I can relate to the way minorities or women are treated today. I mean, I know its not like we’re in the 1800’s, but considering it IS the 21st century, I wonder how far we truly have come considering the amount of time that has passed since slavery was “abolished”. Then again, we’re talking bout a country who’s women were allowed to vote only about 80 years ago. Andrea, I have no idea where you are coming from, but I know it sux (hey, hey, understatement of the day!).

    I mean, this is one reason that I got out of buisiness school and got into that SUPER well paying and lucrative field that IS being a history major. That and I flunked out of buisiness school, but hey… Actually I couldnt stand what I saw going on around me. The shit that Andrea be talkin bout starts at fuckin college. Actually it probably starts as a kid, but thats another essay. Which this has turned out to be.

    Andrea, your brain IS super sexy. Especially in a plaid skirt and tank top.

  10. Andrea Says:

    Awww Alvie- thanks.

    Well you dont have to relate, and its not your job to relate. I think one thing people dont realize is that there are still people alive today who grew up during segregation and womens lib. Some of the people thought those were okay ideas and raised children in that mindset. So for someone to think, oh everything is different now, and racism/sexism is a BS excuse is crazy. We need to go past several more generations before all that is gone. All you can do is teach your children in hopes of a better future.

  11. Alvie Says:

    I will teach my children not to be assholes.
    Thank you for the life lessons, Jack and Mur.

  12. ditto Says:

    Evo a rock star? WTF?

  13. Andrea Says:

    If I had kids I’d do the same. Sometimes I wish I went into teaching. I have all these crazy futile hopes of actually changing peoples lives and making the world better. But then my complete insignificance slaps me in the face.

    Anyway- hell yeah Evo is a rockstar. I think Mike and Evo are. (right now I can feel their ego’s expanding)

  14. Alvie Says:

    Thats not their egos…

  15. Andrea Says:

    oooo, its not? cool.

  16. ditto Says:

    Alvie’s the rock star.
    See… they’ve caught a picture of him already.

  17. Alvie Says:

    Yeah. That was an angry day for me. I was going thru my “Gangstarrist” phase.

    Man, those crazy days…

  18. ditto Says:

    Proof at last that you are a ninja.
    Ph34r the Alvinator. He is not only wise, but he is ninja!

  19. Alvie Says:

    I am “Ganstarristja”.

    Hear me roar.

    In number greater than zero

    But less than four.

  20. Jason C. Says:

    Hey what was with all that deep talk about real issues up there? ;-)

  21. Andrea Says:

    Alvie if you are a rockstar can I be your groupie???

  22. Alvie Says:

    Strait up, Andrea.

  23. Jason C. Says:

    Ooo Groupie…meaning with the crappy VW van and all that stuff? ;-)

  24. Mark Forman Says:

    Alvie-If you’re a rockstar can I be your manager and Andrea-can I be your “mental” groupie?

  25. Andrea Says:

    Thanks Alvie!

    No Jason, I get to ride on the tour bus ;-)

    PS- sorry we got all serious on you there

    Sure thing Mark

  26. Mark Forman Says:

    Jason-shut up and load the van, geez these roadies nowadays. :)

  27. Jason C. Says:

    And ill make the music videos. See just like Jack was talking about this podcast, we are all a big community. But we dont have to smell each others dirty laundry.

  28. Mark Forman Says:

    Jason et al: speaking of video here’s a funny one that Jack H.’s son pointed out. http://www.gkko.com/videos/2339/richard-simmons-on-whose-line/ Y’all play nicely while I go and try to create some internet mixtapes.

  29. Jason C. Says:

    I remember that episode.

    TANGENT WARNING!!!!

    Anyone a fan of Hellboy here?

  30. Alvie Says:

    I liked the movie, I never delved into the comics. Whay dso you ask?

    Now, as Mark said, your break is over. My incredibly heavy amps need lifted into my incredibly tiny 1987 Chevy Nova. Manage him, Mark. Manage him.

    Andrea Im not sure Im comfy with this. Usually groupies arent known for their, urm, smarts…

    Tell you what. Rather than “groupie” can we use “eye candy”?

  31. Jason C. Says:

    I ask because right now in develpoment there are not one but TWO animated films being made.

    For some badass production pictures go read this blog. Right Now.

    http://hellboyanimated.typepad.com/hellboy_animated/

    they will be straight to DVD but dont knock em casue of that. From everything ive read on the blog these are going to be super badass. Mike Mignola, hellboys creator, has been a part of it from day one.

  32. Andrea Says:

    Im the opposite of Alvie, I read the Hellboy comic but did not see the movie

    Alvie, I will take that compliment and eye candy it is- although eye candy implies to be seen and not heard. Im not sure if I can do that either.

  33. Andrea Says:

    Wow Jason that looks pretty cool.

  34. Alvie Says:

    Andrea, crap thats true about “eye candy”. How bout “Smarty Hottie”.

    Jason I wouldnt knock it cause of that. Theres been plenty of strait to dvd animated shows (Animatrix, Chronicles of Riddick, The Avengers..) that have been really good. Thats good news. I also hear the second movie will kick ass. SO I hear.

  35. Jason C. Says:

    I just say that cause Straight to DVD dosent have the greatest track record….thanks to Disney. Oh and the 30 Land before Times. which might be Disney.

    But you make a vaild point Alvie some good stuff there.

  36. Andrea "Smarty Hottie" Says:

    Yes I will take Smarty Hottie…hmmm maybe I need to change my Dragon page forums title to that.

    Im leaving for the day you guys. have fun without me.

  37. Andrea "Smarty Hottie" Says:

    that was weird I tried to post my comment and it flipped out on me- I will post this again so if it doubles up sorry!

    what I said was - yes I will take Smarty Hottie, and maybe I should change my DragonPage Forums title to Smarty Hottie.

    I am leaving for the day, you guys have fun without me

  38. ditto Says:

    Smart *is* sexy.

  39. Andrea Smarty Hottie Says:

    Okay Ive tried posting 3 times now– if this post shows up finally 3 times pleasede forgive me…..

    I will take Smarty Hottie. Maybe I need to change my Dragnpage Forums title to that.

    I am leaving for the day, You guys have fun without me

  40. Andrea Says:

    ooo I think I am being targeted here– I kept trying to post and it wouldnt let me, and now it showed up with this next to it:

    Your comment is awaiting moderation.

    whatever Deadpan!!!

  41. Alvie Says:

    I know what you mean, Jason. I know what you mean. And I think there we 48 Land b4 Times, to go along with the 23 American Tales.

    And conversely, Ditto: Sexy *is* smart.

  42. Jason C. Says:

    Hey whats with that? We dont need no stinkin moderation. We ARE the moderators.

    With that said we have to let you go Andrea. ;-)

    No jk. Lets riot. :D

  43. Alvie Says:

    Andrea, that happens to me sometimes too. It just protects Jack from spam. You know he hearts you.

  44. computerking Says:

    Thanks for the Kudos, I’ve been doing that “Devil Went Down to Georgia” Schtick for friends for years. I’m just glad somebody made a niche for things like that. Took me a while to connect Highbrow/Lowbrow with that in my mind.

    I like the “Dramatic Shakespearian Prose” thing. It helps me shake off the shyness that sometimes creeps up my spine.

    And for a simple comment to the Sexism/Racism thing: As a Black Guy (African American’s too much of a mouthful) I grew up and remain keenly aware of various level of conscious and unconscious racism that goes on. Next time you’re in a store with “floating salespeople,” watch who they zero in on to “Help” and who they allow to wander around unmolested.

    It doesn’t happen all the time, but when you grow up being overtly watched by Security in department stores, you get a nose for it…

    Oops, Comment wasn’t so simple. Oh, well.

  45. Alvie Says:

    ***pickes up garbage can***

    Yeeeeeeaaaaarfgh!!!

    **throws garbage can into window**

    Smaaagertthhd!

    **bangs head against concrete**

  46. Jason C. Says:

    Alvie this isnt Do the Right Thing.

  47. Alvie Says:

    It is now.

    Now if you would kindly fuck off. Ive got some Public Enemy to blast and some pizza joints to burn.

    **flick**

  48. ditto Says:

    In yoda-speak: sexy smart is.
    Spammer Andrea is not.

  49. Alvie Says:

    **burn mutha burn**

    Yknow, oddly this goes along well with the pic Ditto showed us…

  50. Jason C. Says:

    I wish life was more like Futurama.

  51. ditto Says:

    I like crispy pizza. Leave some for me!

    Oooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhh. Pretty flames.

  52. ditto Says:

    I wish life didn’t totally suck.

  53. Jason C. Says:

    Life wouldnt suck if it was like futurama. We would have 4 armend Neptunian chefs, and beer drinking robots, and poor out of work doctor lobsters. Life would be grand.

  54. Alvie Says:

    BTW I do the best Zoidberg impression. Um, is just doesnt translate well over type.

    Ditto: I couldnt say it any better myself.

    Thats it. Im freezing myself. Thaw me out in 1000 years.

  55. Jason C. Says:

    I can do an awesome Zoidberg, look read:

    *cough* Woo wooo wooo wooo wooo

  56. Alvie Says:

    Holy God. I bow to you sir.

    Ok, check this one out…

    *ahem* Bite my pasty fleshy ass!

    Huh? Huh?

  57. ditto Says:

    I applaud both of you.

  58. Jason C. Says:

    *crickets*

    …….better leave it to us professionals. ;-)

  59. Jason C. Says:

    Hey Alvie you read any of the Futurama comics?

  60. Alvie Says:

    Jason stop it! No one can do a Ditto impression quite like Ditto.

    BTW Dave, when did you start going by Ditto on a regular basis? Its cool, but if I remember it wasnt always the case…

  61. Alvie Says:

    Ok geek confession, Jason:

    I had to pick ONE medium to collect due to monetary constraints (yeah, that college degree got me NOTHIN but debt) so I picked action figures over comics. Havent bought a comic in years.

    Now, everyone has about a half hour of free “toy collecter dork” comments toward me. After that I fight back.

    Anyway, Jason, thats the way that is. I miss em tho.

  62. Jason C. Says:

    got me back Alv. Touche sir.

    I just remembered that I havent truly commented on the podcast. Loved this episode, had a great balance of interview and stuff. Its making me get off my ass and work on my podcast and make segments for this here Deadpan. I really want to do my doodle.

  63. Mark Forman Says:

    To CKing-Cool man. I finally heard clearly on your last bit in your rich voice that you were a black man. Being a large caucasian living in an Asian country I can relate somewhat with too many eyeballs being on your ass too much of the time. Hope you keep supporting Jack and feeding us with your stuff. Peace out.

  64. Jason C. Says:

    yeah I know what you mean alvie, DVDs come before anything else for me. Love me my DVDs.

    when I buy comics I get the Trade paper backs, I think Im getting a better deal.

  65. Mark Forman Says:

    Now as to the rest of yuze mooks-what is it the 3 Stooges running loose here. Geez, I turn my back to podcast a SongStory inspired by Andrea Smarty Hottie and this site goes to hell in a handbasket.

  66. Jason C. Says:

    Actually we went to hell in a tupperware container, but that just a small detail.

  67. Mark Forman Says:

    Can you get me some of those Tupperware Shiny Metal Ass holders in mauve?

  68. ditto Says:

    Alvie, ditto has long been a nickname of mine, ever since my first day of University when, out of a class of 80, there were 10 Daves. I started using ditto in the comments when I got the moderator “job” at the forums.

    BTW, I’d collect action figures if I could afford it. I can barely afford the comics I do buy. :(

    Jason, totally agree. Awesome episode. Mur-sama is very wise in giving the best piece of advice I’ve heard in a long time: “Don’t be an asshole.”

  69. Alvie Says:

    But what a fine basket it is!

    Yeah, CKing may just be a bit to refined for these boards. I mean, I welcome any comments he has, I just dont wanna scare him away. Hes too damn clever.

    You hear that Cking?!?!? Too. Damn. Clever!!!!!

    And may I say that as a white guy living in a white bred city, well, it makes me wish for diversity. I remember my trip to NYC and I was so overjoyed to be able to talk and hang with all sorts of folks, when I came back, I cried a little.

  70. Jason C. Says:

    No but I have them in teal and periwinkle.

  71. ditto Says:

    Are those real colors?

  72. Mark Forman Says:

    Ditto on not being an asshole. Oops,I made a double-entendre.

  73. Mark Forman Says:

    I’m a puce man but periwinkle has been known to do it for me in a pinch.

  74. Alvie Says:

    “BTW, I’d collect action figures if I could afford it. I can barely afford the comics I do buy.”

    Heh, why do you think Im in debt? I mean beside the college and the kids and the cost of living. Yup. Buying stuff I shouldnt. Thats why.

  75. ditto Says:

    We all need some toys to keep us happy & sane. Not that it is working, but it is worth a shot.

  76. Alvie Says:

    Oh and “double entendre” is better than D.V.D.A. Raise your hand if you know what that is.

  77. Jason C. Says:

    *raises hand shamefully*

  78. ditto Says:

    DVDA

    Yes, I had to look that up. :(

  79. Mark Forman Says:

    Mark raises white glove covered hand after cheating and looking at Ditto’s link.

  80. Alvie Says:

    WINNERS WINNERS CHICKEN DINNERS! Congrats you fuckin sickos!

  81. Mark Forman Says:

    Alvie don’t have time to eat ‘em-too busy trying to fill all the holes you created. :)

  82. Alvie Says:

    Touche, Mr. Forman.

    Ok now I must take an, urm, extended lunch. Talk amonst yourselves. Heres a topic:

    In 1972, a crack commando unit was sent to prison by a military court for a crime they didn’t commit. These men promptly escaped from a maximum security stockade to the Los Angeles underground. Today, still wanted by the government, they survive as soldiers of fortune. If you have a problem, if no-one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire the A-Team.

  83. jackmangan Says:

    OK, where do I begin?

    Radio Raheem is a god…..

    RK - you rock. Thanks so much for sending me onto this Opeth kick. Brilliant stuff.

    Ditto - thanks for the backstory on your nickname. I also did not know the DVDA true meaning until I clicked your link. . . Yikes.

    Many good points made in the discrimination discussion. Sexism and racism are still active and strong in this country — let no clueless person tell you otherwise…. computerking’s point — and Andrea’s story — perfect examples. But — I think the most damaging of all forces at work now is classism.

    This community is awesome. . . . . If I can channel Ozzy in his shirtless, tattooed, inebriated 80s glory: “I love you all!”

  84. jackmangan Says:

    And I was saving this for a Dumbass Memory - hell, I’ll still tell it as a DM — I was Hannibal when we played A-Team during recess. I love it when a plan comes together.

  85. Mark Forman Says:

    Hearted in Taiwan replies-Love us indeed. As you well should-love is only good if it keeps going around in circles. Now I’m going to cry and dress up like Ozzy after emptying Ozzie’s medicine chest. IRON MAN!

  86. Mark Forman Says:

    Did someone say the name of Mike and Evo’s rock band was the “vibrating cock rings” or am I just chaneling for the smart hottie in the crowd?

  87. Jason C. Says:

    Yep I like the size of this community we have here, kinda hope it dosent grow any bigger. Itll get too impersonal. not saying I want you podcast to fail however Jack, quite the opposite.

  88. ditto Says:

    “WINNERS WINNERS CHICKEN DINNERS! Congrats you fuckin sickos!”

    Yours is the superior intellect.

  89. Mark Forman Says:

    No sweat Jason-we’ll just head over to yor place and eat them “chicken dinners” if that happens.

  90. ditto Says:

    “Ditto - thanks for the backstory on your nickname.”

    yw. Much to my chagrin, I learned several years ago that Limbaugh fans are called dittoheads. Grrrrrrr.

  91. computerking Says:

    Hey, Alvie, Don’t cry, you interact with hundreds of people of all sorts of diverse ethnicities online! You are connected to the multi-colored asphalt of the Information Superhighway! And Hell, you flirt with a Latina on a regular basis (Looks at Andrea). Consider yourself Culturally sensitive.

    Now I must leave work and go home, possibly to record the third and/or fourth soundfile I’ve done this week to send to M&E… I like my hobby, less than half the work, and all of the fame/notoriety of making my own podcast!

    Not that I haven’t entertained the notion of doing one… I already own Podcasting for Dummies….

  92. Alvie Says:

    Ok, Im taking a break from my break.

    Ditto: “Yours is the superior intellect.” Nah, its just my superior subtlety.

    Mark Foreman: Youre channeling

    Jack Mangan: I pity the fool who wasnt B.A. at recess

    Jason C.: We can have both. Jacks listeners can grow by leaps and bounds and we’ll be the ones on the board. Cause we’re scary.

    CKing: True dat my friend

    Andrea: Where’d my Smartie Hottie go to??

  93. ditto Says:

    Alvie, to quote you: ‘What’s this “subt-le-ty” you speak of?’

  94. Alvie Says:

    Ha! I love it when message boards cross over!

  95. ditto Says:

    And just where did our smart hottie go? She must be on another business meeting with those Scottish boys again.

  96. Alvie Says:

    That could be. Shes a professional unlike some peeps on this board.

    *looks at self*

    At this rate Jack will blow past the last Wingin It show comment board. Thats our mission, I think. And I choose to accept it.

  97. Jason C. Says:

    yeah but our conversations are more smart.

  98. Alvie Says:

    And more are betterer

  99. Mark Forman Says:

    So Alvie’s on board as jettison-wing commander,eh? Hmmm.

  100. Jason C. Says:

    i R the greetist.

  101. Mark Forman Says:

    Jason’s last comment made me think of this:
    Right ! now ! ha ha ha ha ha

    I am an antichrist
    I am an anarchist
    Dont know what I want but

    Wing Commander, Mark! Thats on my Tivo and I cant wait to watch it!

    Oh, I dont want a competition with Wingin It. That would mean we would compete against ourselves over there and I hate those bastard.

  103. Alvie Says:

    Mark you doin the Sex Pistols or the Megadeth version?

  104. Mark Forman Says:

    Never heard the Megadeth version but for me only Johnny and the boys for this one.

  105. Jason C. Says:

    noo u ned too lurn how 2 tipe. I r beest tiper ev3r.

  106. Mark Forman Says:

    So is this what jack meant when he said ‘throwin poo around?”

  107. Alvie Says:

    Oh I see what happened to Andrea! Her comments just showed up. Look around comment 35. She left for the day. I didnt know she put in “Smarty Hottie”. Thats why her comments got moderated.

    It all makes sense now.

    Ah well, a belated “have a good day” to our smarty hottie

  108. Jason C. Says:

    *throws poo*

    oo ooo oo o AAAHH AAHH AHH AHH

    *stratches armpit*

  109. Mark Forman Says:

    DVDA on a mofo plane,baby!

  110. Jason C. Says:

    uh I dont think there is enough room in the airplane bathroom.

  111. Mark Forman Says:

    Mark cues up Jonathan Coulton’s”My Monkey” for Jason.

  112. Mark Forman Says:

    Speaking of J coulton. He did songa bout DNA. Hmm, I wonder if he’d consider… D’ya think?

  113. Jason C. Says:

    speaking of JC (not me), I wonde what he has for us tomorrow.

  114. Mark Forman Says:

    Indeed-rather popular initials JC(I mean th Denton one)

  115. Jason C. Says:

    We need to convince him to do a SoaP song.

  116. Mark Forman Says:

    Definitely-I think Evo’s gonna try and meet with him next week so maybe I’ll skype that rock star and…

  117. Alvie Says:

    We’re talking about Jesus here, right?

  118. Jason C. Says:

    Well That JC’s cover of Re: Your Brains is pretty cool.

  119. Alvie Says:

    True dat. He has a way with words.

  120. Jason C. Says:

    boston Legal is an awesome show!

    Jason the King of tangents strikes again!

  121. Alvie Says:

    Jason is also the king of starting posts with an undercase letter.

    What up wit dat! I have grate spelling and grammear;

  122. Jason C. Says:

    My shift key is stupid sometimes.

  123. Mark Forman Says:

    High brow typing: What exactly seems to be the problem, Prudence? Lowbrow typing: yeaz arffff arff triwin poo weeeeez

    On the subject of “don’t be an asshole”: http://www.2theadvocate.com/news/2990536.html?showAll=y

  127. ditto Says:

    Maybe the 6th commandment should be “don’t pwn n00bs”.

  128. Jason C. Says:

    n00bs are there to pwn.

    I will never give up my right to to pwn n00bs

  129. Alvie Says:

    Oh sweet Christ…

    Im telling you, if these fucktards can get into office, so the hell can I.

    “Vote for Alvie! I wont be an asshole!”

  130. ditto Says:

    Headshot.
    ph34r m3

  131. ditto Says:

    If I could vote, I’d vote for you, Alvie.

  132. Mark Forman Says:

    That does it-I’m moving to another country. Wait a second-I already did that.

  133. Alvie Says:

    BTW if I get voted in Ill officially change the 6th comm to “don’t pwn n00bs�.

  134. ditto Says:

    I demand an exception for videogames!

  135. Jason C. Says:

    I will always pwn n00bs and you cant stop me.

  136. Jason C. Says:

    see that n00b over there. pwned. BAM.

  137. ditto Says:

    T-Shirt for Jason C

  138. Alvie Says:

    too bad. Im 1337.

  139. Jason C. Says:

    oh yeah where im l337er

  140. Jason C. Says:

    where=well

    WTF was that?

  141. Alvie Says:

    Reckon I dont grok what youre speeking.

  142. jackmangan Says:

    BTW, elitists…. 5-0 in game 2??!? WTF happened there?

  143. Mark Forman Says:

    He speakin hoclkey ball?

  144. Jason C. Says:

    Uh oh Jack was watching. CHEESE IT!

  145. ditto Says:

    Grumble, grumble, grumble… stupid Canes. :(

  146. Mark Forman Says:

    That mofo always watchin from up there in that header

  147. ditto Says:

    It’s the hair…

  148. Mark Forman Says:

    Damn it Jack, would you quit watchin for a minute I’m pee shy. WTf-what am I doing pissing on my computer any how?

  149. ditto Says:

    That’s NOT how you do a urine test.

  150. Alvie Says:

    I was gonna metion that, Jack. This had the potential to be a good series, now, with Yackoff Smirnoff in net for Edmonton theres no chance. I mean, even with Rollie still in goal, they BLEW a 3 goal lead in game 1. That took em out. I mean (Jack skip the next portion), even when the Avs torched the Devils in game 1 in 2001 the Devils were able to come back and push it to game 7 BECAUSE they got blown out. It wanst a heart breaking, crushing loss like Game 1 in Carolina was. (Jack you can come back now).

    I cant stomach the fact that the south is gonna have the champ 2 years in a row. And yes, the series IS over. I dont care what game theyre on.

  151. ditto Says:

    Yeah, I was thinking that the Canes would win in 5. Not that I want them to, but DAMN IT!!! Edmonton just doesn’t look like they can stand up to the Canes. :(

    Anyway, I like the Bolts so I wasn’t disappointed that they won, but I really don’t like the Canes. Sigh.

  152. Mark Forman Says:

    BWAAAH I love hockey but am left out because they don’t show the games here. Now I’m really pissed. In fact jut wrapped a realy cool mixie tapie podcast thingie-yeahhh!

  153. Alvie Says:

    Thingie yay!!!

    Ditto, um, are you people allowed to like American teams? And could you tell your freinds to stop booing our anthem?

    Thats our job.

  154. ditto Says:

    Yeah, we are allowed to like “American” teams, especially when they have mostly Canadians on them.

    Sure, I’ll tell them to stop booing, but I think they still remember when the Marines had the Canadian flag upside-down during the world series. Not that that is an excuse, mind you. ;)

  155. Jason C. Says:

    Hey I just noticed…we all like hockey. Does podcasting and hockey have a connection? Riddle me this

  156. Mark Forman Says:

    Why where are you from Ditto?

  157. ditto Says:

    Lived most of my life in St. Catharines, near Niagara Falls, Canada. Currently live just south of Kansas City, KS.

  158. Alvie Says:

    Ha! Oh thats right. I forgot about the Marine incident. That sucked. I just figured it was cause we keep stealing your teams. If it was up to me youd get em all back.

    Cept the Nordiques. I think we’ll keep them , thank you very much.

  159. ditto Says:

    Evo likes hockey too.
    Though, I’m always amazed that anyone plays hockey in AZ.

  160. ditto Says:

    Alvie, lmfao. That’s an awesome comeback.

  161. ditto Says:

    I’ve always wondered if the team-that’s-formerly-known-as-the-Nordiques have introduced y’all to the culinary masterpiece known as Poutine?

  162. Alvie Says:

    Well in all seriousness I cant believe how much the nhl has raped CA of their teams. Really, what they have 5 left? Thats another problem. The NHL has TOO MANY TEAMS. I dont know why it works in other leagues, but really, hockey is a regional sport. Nashville? Bah. Arizona? Bah. And up untill the Canes and Lightning success, well, I still say BAH to those places.

    I dunno.

  163. ditto Says:

    Hmmmm… maybe a hockey podcast is in order.

  164. Alvie Says:

    Ive never had Poutine. Whats more, that article just informed me that there is a place called the “Rocky Mountain Tavern”… IN S. KOREA! WTF???

  165. ditto Says:

    It’s all part of the secret plan to take over the world!

    Uh… yeah, right.

  166. Mark Forman Says:

    Alvie eat a bowl of derf. I eat putine here in Taichung, Taiwan. Dang Boulder Boy-what’s the cuisine like up there-caribou burgers and Rocky Mountain Oyster shooters only?

  167. Alvie Says:

    We’re refined.

  168. Jason C. Says:

    dittos on to something…..but im positive that there are other hockey casts….but they dont have us. :D

  169. ditto Says:

    Yeah. We are… well, unique is a word for it. I’d say special, but there’s special and there’s SpEcIaL if you know what I mean.

  170. Alvie Says:

    Huh? Sorry, Ditto. I had to take off my helmet and leash. What about special?

  171. Mark Forman Says:

    Ok I’ll do the first hockey cast in Taiwan now quit naggin :). crap I bunned my wip on friggin poutang stuff

  172. Alvie Says:

    Alright Mark!

    In a related story, I bunned my tip on a frakin puntang stuff.

    Hey-o!

  173. Jason C. Says:

    I wouldnt mind helping with a hockey cast, I dont know alot about hockey but I still love it.

  174. Jason C. Says:

    Of course I need to get mine off the ground first. SMAC attack! BAM!

  175. Mark Forman Says:

    Mark starts of to the rice paddies with IRiver in hand to poll potential hockey cast listners on their comments. Karen from Kalifornia jumps out scvares the living bejesus out of him and takes off on her road rocket. well I’ll be….

  176. Alvie Says:

    *rubs face*

    Ow! Dont you throw your show in my face, boy!

  177. Jason C. Says:

    BAM!

  178. Mark Forman Says:

    Oy-oo you callin boy,son?

  179. Jason C. Says:

    me.

  180. Steveosaur Says:

    Yoda on a banjo.

    *spits drink and co-workers look over to see what’s wrong.*

  181. Alvie Says:

    *wipes blood off chin*

    youre lucky. moms callin. there will be another meeting, J.C. oh yes….

    And on that note, thank you ladies and gentlemen. Well done indeed! And thank you, Jack Mangan, for making this slice of heaven possible.

    I heart you all. In a totally non gay way.

    Not that theres anything wrong with that.

    Adios!!!!

  182. Mark Forman Says:

    Mark being totally enraged challenges Alvie to a game of hockey in the middle of the Pacific Ocean with Jack Mangan (who cruised under the Fonz’s package) using his shark mojo to let the boys have at it in a temporary shark-free zone. Screw it watchin the SJ Sharks on tv is quicker.

  183. Jason C. Says:

    Later Alvie.

    I think I may close Firefox so I can enjoy the fullscreen goodness of Boston Legal season 2. Denny Crane.

  184. Mark Forman Says:

    Oops-nevermind. Mark put’s down hockey stick and resumes podcasting for the thinking impaired.

  185. Rhettro Says:

    ditto, If you really lived just south of KCK, you would have said you lived Johnson County. No one who lives in the KC area wants to admit KCK exists. LOL

  186. Mark Forman Says:

    Rhett engages us in some tornado belt trivia.

  187. ditto Says:

    lol. Like anyone from the area would know where JC is, but I do know what you mean about KCK. Yikes!!! Point in fact, I live near the arboritum. :P

  188. ditto Says:

    Anyone *not* from the area. D’uh. Me SpEcIaL

  189. Mark Forman Says:

    Dang-last time I looked comments were up in the 180s. rhett-Bringing any Blue Ice Cream to the Pool Party?

  190. Jason C. Says:

    anyone want to come fly to DFW and pick me up and take me to the pool party, and then get me back home in time for class? anyone?

  191. Mark Forman Says:

    Jason-best get to polishing that “metal thumb” make it shinier. Be quicker :)

  192. Jason C. Says:

    oh well then it wont truly be a party without the JC. *fonzie thumbs*

  193. Mark Forman Says:

    Not your thumbs I’m worried about, careful of Jack’s dorsal going under the fonzie package.

  194. Jason C. Says:

    cup. *fonzie thumbs* ;-)

  195. Mark Forman Says:

    OK Fonzarelli thumbs -but Shiny Metal cup safer! :) :)

  196. Jason C. Says:

    Denny Crane. ;-)

  197. Mark Forman Says:

    For anyone nterested-here’s a SongStory podcast of mine inspired by Smarty Hottie Andrea. http://bbluesman.com/2006/06/09/pretty-in-pink/ Smart Hotty hope you dig it. Smarty Hotties are the hottest!

  198. Mark Forman Says:

    Who’s Denny-he drink out of that cup? :)

  199. Jason C. Says:

    Denny Crane is Bill Shatners charcter in the bestest Lawyer show ever, Boston Legal. His character always says his name.

  200. Mark Forman Says:

    Haven’ seen that one yet. Who’s William Shatner? :) One to beam up.

  201. Jason C. Says:

    The first season is out on DVD, dont know if its out there. but there are some good *cough*torrents*cough* out there.

  202. Mark Forman Says:

    Torrent oh my, my bladder is acting up. “Cough” “cough” produces the Squirel Nut effect on me.

  203. Mark Forman Says:

    Hey Jason we broke the Deuce double goose eggs. 202 nd counting. DeadPan boy is a net legend!

  204. Jason C. Says:

    I think Jack will have to have a Deadpan about us. On how we do what we do.

  205. Mark Forman Says:

    Who cares about jack-I’m trying to get a part on Denny Crane out of this. Jack never forgets his “peeps.” Ain’t in his DNA or DVDA or whatever. Never paid attention in science.
    Alvie you horrible man-I hope you’re happy DVDA has gone viral and that ain’t good.

  206. Jason C. Says:

    Wait Denny Crane on Deadpan….THAT would be, how you say, FUCKING AWESOME!

  207. Mark Forman Says:

    ACTORS ACT LIKE SCHOOL JERKS- http://www.nypost.com/seven/06072006/gossip/pagesix/pagesix.htm
    I hope Jeremy from Seattle never does this.

  208. Jason C. Says:

    your stoopid! nuh uh! nuh huh! shut up! poo head. dookie face. *slapping begins*

  209. Mark Forman Says:

    I mean did these 2 buttheads think they’d be making the big bucks forever? Should have enjoyed some and invested the rest. Reality check coming a little late fo them.

  212. Mark Forman Says:

    Albee-Ay chihuahua mi pero es malo. Que lastima. 200 chihuahua McNuggets for the Pool Party-no problem. Make sure those fugs take you to the Chino Bandito kick-ass Mexican/Chinese/Jamaican joint. Favorite of Mike, Evo & Joe.

    Its Ok Smarty, the fun never stops.

  214. Mark Forman Says:

    Alvie is it possible to get one of them DVDA’s supersized?

  215. Alvie Says:

    Holy…..

    Could ANYONE feel ANYTHING???? SUPERSIZED???

    hatcha…

  216. Mark Forman Says:

    I guess Enormous could?

  217. Andrea Says:

    MArk, I am truly honored. Thank you :)

  218. Mark Forman Says:

    My pleasure it was fun and sounds good. Hope you dig the tunes.

  219. Alvie Says:

    You go boi!

  220. Mark Forman Says:

    So is Jack’s point that Daisy Duke and Princess Leia are the same?

  221. Alvie Says:

    No, I dont think so. Daisy was much more, um, open…

    Ok I warned you all about this on an earlier post. Now reap the fruits…
    http://video.msn.com/v/us/v.htm?g=c6919063-5da6-446f-b204-0371bdcbed14&t=s5&f=06/64&p=hotvideo_viralvideos&GT1=8211

    Now allow me to fucking vomit.

  222. Mark Forman Says:

    Sorry my computer doesn’t do windows. I don’t have IE either-I’m a Firefox man-emphasis on the Fox. Hit me Bootsie. We want the funk, we wants to get funked up
    Yeah we need the funk, we want our funk uncut

  223. Alvie Says:

    Ah well. Its best that way.

  224. Mark Forman Says:

    How’d that Pink flag work out for you?

  225. Jason C. Says:

    samehere although I do have IE, but I refuse to use it.

  226. Mark Forman Says:

    Friggin Jason’s like them 2 crocodile eyes just at the waterline waiting for some dumbass to go skinny dippin. *CHOMP*

  227. Mark Forman Says:

    We gonna bust triple goose eggs here real soon.

  228. Alvie Says:

  230. Andrea Says:

    goodnight Alvie
    sweet dreams

  231. Jason C. Says:

    Wait Paris Hilton is a woman? All I know is “she” looks like “shes” been punched in the face, twice. With two fists. of cement. with rebar sticking out. and the rebars rusty. and its sharp. and there are STDs on the fists.

  232. Mark Forman Says:

    Those mean men at Dracovista abused poor Jack and threatened to build around his head permanently unless his ratings come up. Come on now “peeps” we gots to help our boy here.
    http://bbluesman.com/media/HPIM0381.JPG

  233. Andrea Says:

    Paris Hilton and woman do not belong in the same sentance….

  234. Jason C. Says:

    What the? what is that from?

  235. Mark Forman Says:

    The studio during renovation.

  236. Jason C. Says:

    but where did you get it? do you have your crazy spy cams set up? ;-)

  237. Mark Forman Says:

    Evo’s response to Jack, when Jack asked him if he could have a glass of water to drink. He helped them build studio in 115 degree heat.
    http://bbluesman.com/media/HPIM0388.JPG

  238. Jason C. Says:

    awww look at the little evo….hes like an elf. and not the LotR kind.

  239. Mark Forman Says:

    I’ve got the goods on the dragon man himself. I have fotageof him and a male four legged animal in shall we say,”very compromised position.” :)

  240. Mark Forman Says:

    Are you saying that the four legged male animal wasn’t an animal but an elf? Or what’re you saying? :)

  241. Jason C. Says:

    Hey speaking of that I just watched a Boston Legal episode where one of the clients had “relations” with a cow. *shudder*

  242. Jason C. Says:

    Im liking lookin at this picture so much in there. what a cool studio. Huge board.

  243. Mark Forman Says:

    Jason said cow and “utter” obviously not a paris Hilton cow. Tee hee

  244. Jason C. Says:

    Well i would make the insult she looks like a cow that has been sucked dry, but that would be an insult to all cows that have been sucked dry.

  245. Mark Forman Says:

    They just recently doubled the size of studio from one room to 2.

  246. Jason C. Says:

    One of these days im going to take a road trip up there.

  247. Mark Forman Says:

    For sure-theres a lot of stuff to do in Phoenix area.

  248. Alvie Says:

    JESUS CHRIST GO TO BED!!!! Cept you Mark.

    Poor Jack. Thats a great fuckin pic, tho.

    K, now Im really outta here. No really.

  249. Jason C. Says:

    Its only midnight. Dont be an old man. ;-)

  250. Mark Forman Says:

    Alvie the ancient prude
    probably don’t have no teef

  251. Jason C. Says:

    No he has teef…they are just in a glass of polident or whatever.

  252. Mark Forman Says:

    Heehaw Albee’s teef needs DentuCheese otherwise they fall out and he look like a chicken mouf :)

  253. jackmangan Says:

    253 comments in about 24 hours….. Good grief, Charlie Brown.

  254. Alvie Says:

    I hate you all. And by hate, I mean, um, hate. Er, love. Huh?

    Now if you excuse me, I have to do my morning Depends dump out.

    Shesh, some of us have to get up a 5:30 to go to work yknow.

    Jack: Just shows to go ya what a tightly held together ship can do. And you have *snicker* the tightest ship of all…

  255. Rhettro Says:

    Did someone say blue ice cream? That should be Jack’s next interview. Sack Trick is Jonathan Coulton’s evil brother. LOL

  256. Alvie Says:

    Sack. Fraking. Trick.

  257. Mark Forman Says:

    So all that happened since I went home for some sleep is Rhett’s blue ice cream and Alvie’s Depends ad? Ok.

  258. Rhettro Says:

    Yep, pretty much. Sorry to dissapoint.

  259. Mark Forman Says:

    The blue ice cream is good. That band is nutty fun.

  260. Mark Forman Says:

    Rhett-what’s the deal? You are from Phx or from KC area? Or both?

  261. Alvie Says:

    I think he migrated.

    “No you cant stop THIS EXODUS!”

  262. Mark Forman Says:

    You getting biblical on me again? Remember that Nothing But trouble movie-http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0102558/ with Digital Underground and Tupac in it? Dan Akroyd as the decrepit old judge?

  263. Alvie Says:

    Yes I do. I love the Digital.

    Why do you ask?

  264. Alvie Says:

    What ever happened to Schmoovy-Schmoov?

  265. Mark Forman Says:

    I was free associating-the old judge falling apart and the deal about you and dentures, etc. Just my sick mind running away with me. I figured you’d know pic anyway.

  266. Mark Forman Says:

    Da Humpty Dance

  267. Mark Forman Says:

    http://amp.dascene.net/detail.php?view=6209 ss info

  268. Alvie Says:

    So youre saying hes done nothing since Digital.

  269. Mark Forman Says:

    Kinda looks that way.

  270. Mark Forman Says:

    Alvie check these guys out-some friends of mine I’m trying to hook Jack up with for possible interview. Reggae and hiphop with song samples here: http://www.dreaddaze.com/music.htm

  271. Jason C. Says:

  272. Alvie Says:

    Very nice Mark. Specially Big Shot Calla.

    Crap. Jasons here…

  275. Jason C. Says:

  276. Mark Forman Says:

    Jason’ crapped in the ice cream again(hehe mark;s board comment mashup magic). Wasup Jaze? Making bombs in college and shit?

  277. Jason C. Says:

    Explosives 101 would be pretty cool better than Underwater basketweaving.

  278. Mark Forman Says:

    Enjoy it while you can-College days were some of the best in my life. I did my share of underwater experimentaion in Jacuzzis and pools, but no baskets. You a native texan?

  279. Jason C. Says:

    Born and raised.

  280. Mark Forman Says:

    Damn yuze quick on the trigger-must be a Texan :) My cousins all grew up in Ft. Worth. My aunt was from Sweetwater. I visited Ft. Worth when I was 9 and everybody couldn’t get enough of my New Yawk accent especially saying wawtuh (water)

  281. Jason C. Says:

    “Where my snakes at?”

  282. Jason C. Says:

    hehehe yeah I dont have much of an accent, but when I go somewhere different I do notice myself saying y’all alot. Stuff like that.

  283. Mark Forman Says:
