In high school, I took a in a vocational/technical class, and used Apple Macintosh PowerPCs, on which we sometimes played...
You Don’t Know Jack
“Way back in the early 90s, Jellyvision decided to test the waters of mainstream interactive entertainment by beginning a partnership with Berkeley Systems, of ‘Flying Toasters’ fame. Berkeley Systems asked us if we could apply the concepts of a game show to an adult trivia game. Since no one at Jellyvision ...”
More recently on the Wii at the home of Denton, I have also played You Don’t Know Jack, which is now a game is on Facebook. We also listened to the following on CD.
Real Men of Genius - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
“Real Men of Genius is a series of advertisements, primarily 60-second American radio spots, for Bud Light beer. The campaign was originally created by Bob Winter, a copywriter at DDB Chicago. The ad campaign, which began in 1998 under the title Real American Heroes consisted of 12 spots. To …”
As a reader, you might be asking why I have bothered to say all of this. Well, the fictious advertisements from sponsors in You Don’t Know Jack greatly inspired me when we last rehearsed ‘A Word from Our Sponsors’ at the home of John. Ahead is our strongest set from rehearsal, with a little more exposition.
“Dennis Burks, adjunct assistant professor, industrial technology, recently had two articles published in safety magazines. ‘Don’t Let Your Job Run You Down,’ which addressed determining the best method to warn others of backing vehicles and equipment, appeared in the August 2012 issue of Occupational Health & Safety magazine. He also authored an article entitled ‘Reviewing & Reexamining OSHA’s Multi-Employer Citation Policy,’ in the August 2012 edition of Professional Safety: Journal of the American Society of Safety Engineers. The society represents approximately 35,000 safety and health professionals worldwide.”
OK OK OK, the game that we rehearsed was an opening where we each find a seat on a chair, informally discuss a topic as if we were in a living room, and we in essence play ourselves. John gave us the suggestion ‘wildfire,’ which was something that David and I saw while traveling to Lawrence, although that fire was technically a controlled burn.
I possessed other knowledge, so I spoke with Joel about Wild Fire; an image of this original character (OC) of Sibsy (i.e., Senior Storyboard Editor of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic) is shown above. Wild Fire appeared in the background and had a line in the final episode of the second season. Unfortunately for Joel, I tripped over a few syllables, so I just started to talk like the following meme.

“Ermahgerd (also known as ‘Gersberms’ and ‘Berks’), a lisped pronunciation of ‘oh my god,’ is an image macro series featuring a photo of a young woman ...”
For Frank, a fellow player and friend, let us shed some sympathetic tears. When workshops were on Tuesday, Frank had no problem attending, but they were moved to Monday, and Frank had to wait a month before the hours at his job could accomodate that change. John revised our scheduled rehearsals to now be on Sunday, so history repeats itself. To be fair, John did send out a survey, to which Frank may not have replied. David observed that Frank should be back at rehearsal by the next time we decide on a different day.
