Jack Abramoff goes to jail. :)

You know as a devout Theravada Buddhist it's not a good idea to let myself feel such joy as when I read that good ol' Wack-o Jack-O Abramoff-O was sent to prison for 3months and 3days on corruption charges. I wonder what the rest of the D-toid community feels about this. Do you think we let ol' Jack off the hook? I mean now it looks like he won't be causing any more problems for the game industry. And from the statement I read on CNN.com he sounds like a shadow of himself ( at least when he bull horned Jim).

Off topic, I dig the trench coat and Dick Tracy hat.

Am I missing something? When did Abramoff cause problems for the games industry?

True, but it looks like he won't be any longer Brain.

You know... I'm a Christian, not a Buddhist, but Earthbound has always made me think of Buddhism when I play it, lol. Do you know if there's some correlation? I'm sure I'm just crazy, haha.

You know I kind of got the same feeling myself Jackal, especially when it comes to the feeling of the game. Especially how Ness is simply doing a good thing because it's the right thing to do. Not because of some reward be it in this life or the next. Unless of course you count the satisfaction of saving the world.

Jack Abramoff =/= Jack Thompson

I think JT is the one that Jim interviewed that time.

Thank god, Jack Abramoff was one of the biggest hackers in Counter Strike. Now I can finally play that game in peace.

At least the guy is going out in style with the hat and trench coat.

And yeah, this guy has nothing to do with video games. Jack Thompson is the lunatic you're thinking of. Oh well, shit happens.
