Maybe it was the mountain air. Maybe it was the roofies. Maybe it was fun overload to the max. Whatever the reason, the last thing we remember about MaxFunCon was following Jesse’s car up to the event.
Just kidding we remember everything.

Road Monkey by JasPer
After our Seattle show (which you can hear in our most recent episode, Lonely Polisher), the Talent took the opportunity to pose with the real star of the show, Road Monkey, whose value was appraised at somewhere in the vicinity of $4,000 and change, but mostly for its unconventional sexual acrobatic prowess.

By now, Semi-permanent (OTIII) YLNT Archivist JasP is sort of obligated to knock them over as we set them up. Here, he knocks one over out of the park.

“Bird on a Sandwich” by JasPer
Because Quasi-official YLNT (Brown-belt) Archivist Jason Permenter listened in on our latest episode Angry Captain, he knows of my sweet tooth for Goldie Hawn and took it upon himself to track down this hastily-fabricated Dutch version of the movie on DVD, in which I play the role of Rick Jarmin and his streetwise sidekick, Mel Gibson’s Hair.

Hij is de droom voor elke vrouw. Voor haar is hij een nachtmerrie.
(From the Dutch: He is the dream for every woman. For her it is a nightmare and a falsehood, like the Holocaust. What? Nothing.)
Great Works
Today, over at the mother ship, we told you a bit about the history of Hernes, the You Look Nice Today writers’ retreat. Countless great works will be written there, and we’re excited to offer residencies to writers of ever-higher caliber.
But we should not forget some of the wonderful works that have already been produced at Hernes. A brief list:
- Halm Greenbread: The Do-Overs
- Justice Brie: Who Am I Slash What / A Dialectic
- Cresstin Keeper: Krishna Steals the Peanut
- Robert Langdon: Awoke Slowly
- Stoop Hass: Miracles of Near-Flight
The tragedy here is that, while these books will someday be considered the classics of a fallen age, they have proven too unpopular to keep in print (or even, in some cases, to print at all). It’s sad to think that these majestic works are, for all intents and purposes, lost.
This marks my 3rd consecutive hour doing the fishstick.
