After a couple of rough starts, because George is very important, Episode 2 breaks into a healthy pace.
Just to be clear, this episode is not called, "Ep 2: That's a Stereotype"
Dude and other dude had a great dynamic when selling stuff. (This is a Breaking Bad Spoiler Alert.)
Ugh, life is so hard when you have to wait to consume things for basically free.
The graphic novels of Walking Dead are a bit different from the show.
George is too busy reading Transmetroplitan, by Warren Ellis, to finish Walking Dead.
Hunter S. Thompson was once played by Bill Murray. No really!
Thomas would stalk Warren Ellis if it wasn't too lazy. Instead he just collects all his digital raves (not rants, raves). e.g. morning.computer, ambient podcast, public newsletter, and a few more he either cannot mention, or wonāt.
Thomas really likes āLetters to a Young Poet" but just can't get into anything else Rainer Maria Rilke wrote.
Since the recording of this episode, Thomas' had now read 3 of Ellis' actual books and he really enjoyed it. So, it's not the same thing as RMR.
In Downtown Vegas, at The Writerās Block there is a really cool book printing machine where you print 1-off copies of books for around $6 to $10
We might try to print off a copy of The Passion Planner from the printer. But, we'd rather have it lay flat... so we're going to punch it for the Levenger Circa system instead.
SHOWNOTES! A little self-reffernetial, donāt you think?
Oh yeah, so we have a community slack for The Bored Room. You are probably going to want to join it to talk shop. (Or to play the ABC game.)
George doesn't like orange.
Since George isn't busy (haha) he should probably open a comic-book/record/grilled-cheese shoppe. But, that's a dumb idea because he would have to use gluten-free bread.
George's top three favorite breads:
Great people are open to influence. Whereas people who cannot see magic eyes should be condemned to an island.
Thomas quit Ingress. George likes Ingress more than people.
Apple is not a sponsor of this episode. Also, neither Ingress nor Google are sponsors of this episode.
Ingress is an ARG. It is not an SLR or GPS.
Have you heard of Google Plus? Chris Messina had some thoughts about it.
Did you know that Google based employees bonuses on ā+ā success or failure?
Now that Google owns Nest and Dropcam, they will start to understand our physical networks as well as our social and digital connection.
Chai knows every electronic plugged in to your home.
Thomas expects Google to pick up Atomatic next to get even deeper into knowing you. George just wants it reset his check engine light.
George uses the Nest. Thomas uses the Leeo.
Houseplants are a tricky subject at Casa de la George. Which is why Thomas isn't going to mention this in the show notes.
Neither of us use a Wemo, but I Yahoo'd it so you can learn more.
Neither of us have an Amazon Alexa, but George really wants one.
George also wanted the XBox One to make him happy, but it didn't.
However, Cortana makes Thomas happy. And not because she is predicting football outcomes.
There is a great podcast that makes use of a quality sound board.
When you don't have a great sound board, a jar of Flarp will do.
FYI flarp conforms to the safety requirements of ASTM-F963.
George decided that ecamm, who is still not a sponsor, is worth exchanging money for value for. For.
Unix is special because you can RTFM:
George used to have a lot of anger in his heart for people who turn off our podcast early. Now he just knows that they are suffering their own fate.
George, the musician, can shittily play piano.
