Another episode brought to you by the Wondercast.
A shorter one than our previous two hour episodes.
This may be the end of any conversations between Simon (who was sick, sorry for the muffled voice track from my side) and Kyoto Kitty for a while…or until she finds internet in Japan.
Listen and enjoy!

I got one of those spam scam emails and instead of ignoring it I replied. I know Jackie replied to one so I might as well do it myself also. Surprisingly, this is the first time I got it from a “Chinese” person.
Here is the email from Hu Chengzhong:
From: hu_chengzhong@yahoo.com Subject: Employment Offer! Date: Wed, 1 Apr 2009 14:42:33 +0800
Dear Friend,
My name is Hu Chengzhong and i am an artist and the owner of DELIX GROUP of COMPANY Ltd in China. I sell my products to my customers in U.S.A,Canada and Uk which i find it very difficult in recieving my payments from them in the past as they have requested to pay through a direct wire transfer into a home equity line of credit account. I have had a lot of experiences in the past when they were paying through checks and money orders.
I have resolved these issues with them that they cannot make payments via checks and money orders any longer. We now accepted that all payments should be made by swift wire transfer into a home equity line of credit account in the United Sates. They requested all payments to be made into “A Home Equity Line of Credit Account”.Why they requested for such account is that the funds will be more secured into such account and the IRS will never question any amount of money coming in or going out of the account. I need you to be my representative in the United States if you own such account. I will offer you 5% of any of my payment that passed through your home equity line of credit account. You will never invest any money at the course of this transaction.
This transaction is 100% legal and does not relate to money laundering and is free from Drug money. The amount of money depends on the volume of facilities sold which ranges from $500,000.00 and above depending on the limit of your account. I will detail you as soon as i hear from you.I will forward a copy of my identification to you as we progress with this transaction. Please do not forget to provide your direct telephone number so i can also give you a call.
Email:hchengzhong@yahoo.com
NOTE: YOU WILL NOT PAY OUT ANY MONEY FROM YOUR POCKET TILL THE END OF THE TRANSACTION
Best regards
Hu Chengzhong Delix Group of Company Ltd 11th Floor,Delix Mansion Liushi Industrial Zone Wenzhou China
This is my reply to his email:
Hello yellow brother!
I am also a Chinese man myself living in the United States that is America. I would like to ask you what kind of employment and artistry you are working for because as a hard working Chinese person, I find that being an artist in any country can be a big struggle.
My honorable brother, how do you do it? How must a person like myself be like you, a person who can make so much money by selling products to US, Canadian and British consumers.
Are you a Communist? If so, I would like to join your Communist group of cohorts. I would like equality amongst us and build a unified nation of people who share the same ideas and love as our once glorious leader, Mao Zedong.
My half sister (literally she was cut in half because of the 1.5 child per family rule in the Motherland) would like to help you in wiring this money and whatever we can do to help we would do it! We will fight for our glory and back the Chinese regime! We will be the strong nation that we once were and we will follow the ongoing Communism rules of our past grateful leaders! Whatever you need, brother, I will help! Power to the people! Any information that is need please contact me back once again. I will keep this between you, me and my upper-bodied sister. Good night, brother…
Metal Gear’s Hideo Kojima was present at this years Game Developer’s Conference to deliver a keynote session, “Making the Impossible Possible” about his methodology of the Metal Gear series and how to overcome and deal with initial problems. He also joked around about his long cutscenes in the Metal Gear games. Also, is this picture above a suspect for another Metal Gear Solid game? Possible.
“The PlayStation faithful may want to mark March 24th down on their calendars, as Tecmo says it will be announcing a brand new title on the second day of this year’s Game Developers Conference.
Tecmo hasn’t revealed the platform on which this mystery title will be released, but considering the announcement is happening at the PlayStation Store at the Metreon in San Francisco… well, we think it would be poor form to announce a new Wii title there. Tecmo PR says the “hot new title” will be “the greatest “_____” game, ever!” It promises. It also promises a Q&A session with an unnamed development producer/director.
Make sure you’re around at 4 PM with anticipation set at maximum levels. Let’s hope that Tecmo realizes it already announced Quantum Theory. Because that would be _____.”
All I can say is…Dead or Alive: Beach Volleyball Nude?
The newly released Resident Evil 5 has got to be one of the glossiest piece of gaming I have ever laid my eyes on. Not only does it seem like they’re sweating 24/7, but it looks like Chris and Sheva have been put into a lamination machine and had lip gloss smeared all over them (not the cherry flavored kind). But hey, the gameplay is great so I’m not complaining about Capcom wanting Chris and Sheva all oiled up.
On a side note….Capcom….more baby oil on Sheva, please…just a heads up for any DLCs you plan on doing for RE5.
Colonel Sanders rescued from river after 24 years
In 1985, a group of excited Hanshin Tigers baseball fans stole a Colonel Sanders statue from a Kentucky Fried Chicken and threw it in Osaka’s Dotonbori River. Sanders was wearing star hitter Randy Bass’ uniform at the time, and the fans did it to celebrate the Tigers’ championship. Bad move. The Tigers haven’t won a title since, causing frustrated fans to call this the Curse of the Colonel Sanders.
The awesome news is that, earlier this week, Colonel Sanders miraculously appeared near the riverbank. He was missing his arms and legs, but investigators found those nearby, too, and put him back together again. Randy Bass, who has since returned to the US and is now a Democratic senator from Oklahoma, says:
“Now that they’ve found the Colonel, the curse is over and it’s time to put your money on the Tigers.”
GO HANSHIN TIGERS!!!
In this episode I bring back the Natural Voice Reader, Paul. He’s the robotic voice reading device on my computer who I used way back in 2006 to read an article about a Japanese pedophile serial killer.
Please enjoy him talking about the ugliest building in the world. I know you’ll like it ApocD.
