Hey guys,

A buddy of mine has been playing a lot songs by the Lovecraft-inspired punk band Darkest of the Hillside Thickets, and they pronounce Cthulhu as kuh-TOO-loo, just like Jason does. I just had to write in with this to say "Hey, Jason, feel better buddy, because YOU'RE NOT THE ONLY ONE THAT SAYS IT WRONG! "

(please please please have Derek read this one on the show!)

For those who might be wondering where I went, I'm now in New Mexico spreading the love of gaming as director of an organization called FandoNM. That's Fan Dō, as in "Way of the Fan" (http://fandonm.ning.com). I miss you guys, but this just gives me an opportunity to tell more people about the Pulp Gamer Media Network!

Here's a potential story for you: The University of Arizona has decriminalized the use of sidewalk chalk. That means it's legal to play hopscotch again!

You should do a show on playground games. Wikipedia has all kinds of interesting info on the origins of those games.
