+thegoldenband Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 Great stuff! But I have to admit I'm disappointed that the wonderful company name is a red herring. One can imagine a whole alternate history: a tie-in musical game starring Fred Schneider of the B-52's, a fashion-based adventure game ("Acquired Scarf - 500 points!"), a festive shmup called Rainbow Invaders... (Oh wait, I think we already have one of those. ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zach Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 Has anyone else been getting ads such as "Fly to Cuba Free" or "Meet local Cuban Singles!" since viewing the links? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas Jentzsch Posted November 5, 2012 Author Share Posted November 5, 2012 So the address on the Air Raid manual is the same address as Mena Toys,is this correct? No, it's the address of "Mena's Jewelry" (1702), the one left of "Mena Toy's" (1704). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't use any ad blockers, do you? Also I suggest a using plugin like Ghostery, which prevents tracking very effectively.

+thegoldenband Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 "In the 1930s Burns and Allen adopted two children, Sandra Jean and Ronald Jon, after discovering they could not conceive their own." I guess the Wikipedia article needs updating, since they clearly had a daughter, and she has her father's...well, everything! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BassGuitari Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 (edited) That's what happens when you marry em. That's why God gave us liquor. And divorce. In fairness to women, it's not like our guts get any smaller after we bust the ring out, either.

+Atari_Warlord Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 I dropped the letter in the mail. It usually takes a few weeks to a month before I hear back. I give them all of my contact information, so they can choose what they are comfortable with and it helps build some trust if they want to look me up and see I'm not trying to scam them.
