Cat causes trouble for good-hearted Mojoer, important news goes unreported 02 Jan, 2009, 06:11 / 1 comments


I want to thank my new cat, dubbed Popcorn (name picked by a two-year old cousin). In the three days I've had her I've already had one toilet back up, a leaking pipe with a tendency to shower my bed with brown water every time the guys upstairs flush the toilet, and a heater that decided to snuff it when the temperature hit the -20°C. But what's relevant to Mojo is that Popcorn also managed to kill my internet, and because I am the Only Active Mojoer no-one bothered to tell you about the various awesome art shows the Double Fine Action Artists are having!

But freak out not! You can visit these shows if you 1. live in San Francisco/can get to San Francisco in time, and 2. are cool enough (which you are, since you read Mojo).

But let's say you neither live in San Francisco, nor read Mojo. Now that probably makes you a loser, and because you're a loser (or not Christian) you probably had no Christmas presents under your tree this year. (I can see your tears.) But you can fix that! Without turning Christian, if you don't want to! (Really!) All ya gotta do is just click here and totally take the Free Stuff Double Fine is giving away, for free (plus 13% taxes).

And last but not least: Scott C got interviewed by Kwanzoo about art-ing it up, how he met Tim Schafer and how love at first sight led to his gig at Double Fine. Also: some of the art-influences for the game. Also: you should read it before I put in more spoilers for the interview. Also, read this: "The game is going to rule, so you should probably get excited." Scott C says so. And he's awesome enough for me to believe. I believe!

Except in my black cat Popcorn. Goddam cat.

    WELL SORRY I WAS HAVING FUN WRITING THIS. New Year's Resolution #3: Make news posts shorter.
