Oh... this looks like it's gonna be SO SWEET!!!!!!!!

Scuze me - I feel a need to go play Stalnoy Volk a little bit. ^_^

Recently, I was reminded of an old canadian TV show that I used to enjoy called 'Prisoners of Gravity'. It was a half hour program that "explored
speculative fiction -science fiction, fantasy, horror, comic books - and its relation to various thematic and social issues."

here's the wikipedia page for a better description.

Youtube actually has 3 or 4 eps posted (broken into thirds), here's part 1 of an episode talking about Fans (seemed appropriate )

The intro sequence (which starts around the 1:15 mark) also fits Fenspace as it involves the host flying his car into space.

In honour of GM's Day (which, apparently, is today), a score of GURPS PDFs are on sale at http://e23.sjgames.com/]e23.sjgames.com. One of them is Bob and Peggy's somewhat-experimental sourcebook about bands of merrie men. See the March 4 entry under "What's New" for details.

(Oh, yes... Bob and Peggy, you still don't have author's blurbs on e23...)

Janet Kagan passed away on Saturday. She was the Hugo-winning author of Uhuru's Song, Hellspark and Mirabile. She was also a wonderful lady that I had the privilege of meeting
many years ago at one of the early Contexts here in Columbus, and I'll miss her a lot. I'd always hoped I'd get to read more works by her. If you
ever have the chance to pick up her stuff, do so. It's great. For the Fenspace folk...she's the one responsible for the Jason's professional name -
from the Mirabile stories.

*raises a toast* To Janet Kagan, extraordinary writer, and to Tailkinker to-Ennien, Tocohl Susumo, and Annie Jason Masmajean, three wonderful heroines about
whom I wish we could've read more. Sail with the 'Sparks, Janet.

Rock, jazz, and blues musician (dare I say "great"?) Jeff Healey http://www.cbc.ca/arts/music/story/2008 ... butes.html]passed away Sunday, from cancer.

Two months before his latest - now last - album is due out, too...

...Pick a server none of us frequent, look up the List of Seven Hundred
Hobo Names, and create a supergroup composed solely of characters inspired by any names that will fit into the field. ^.^ It's time the hobos returned
from the stars and resumed their conquest of the United States!

...or not. In any case, I call dibs on 41-K, the Experimental Hobo Infiltration Droid.
