Quote:New Demasked & Warp Pipe Info Our contact over at Warp Pipe gave us a "heads up" a couple days ago, notifying Nintendojo that their new corporate site is online, with a couple previously unreleased tidbits about their Demasked venture. As well, though we couldn't publicly state so before, a recent newsletter to the site's subscribers has confirmed that the team will no longer support their original GameCube tunneling project, "Warp Pipe", which allowed LAN-enabled GameCube games to be played "online". From this point onward, Warp Pipe refers to the company alias in general. Here are the full transcripts from both the recently relaunched site and aforementioned newsletter.
I have no idea how to introduce this, so I'll just post it. This is an email Maynard (the real one) sent in moments ago:
[indent] "hi, kabir. i thought it only fair to inform you first, before you hear it second or third hand. some recent events have led me to the rediscovery of jesus. tool will need to take the back seat. this may come as a shock. i just thought you should know considering all the support you given us over the years.all my faith. maynard."
[/indent]This is an actual email from actual MJK. I was going to type up a post about how the RIAA had sent us a letter shutting down The Tool Page (as this year's annual April Fools' Day joke), but now I just don't think it seems appropriate. More on this as it develops. [size=3]§[/size]
Has Maynard James Keenan, the frontman of both the dark, heavy-metal art band Tool and the somewhat lighter A Perfect Circle, found Jesus and been born again? Well ...
Recent postings on two Tool Web sites — one of them purportedly by
Keenan himself — contend that the singer has found religion and has left Tool. Could this really be? On Tuesday afternoon (April 5), MTV News' Kurt Loder e-mailed Keenan for confirmation, and this is what he e-mailed back: "I did, in fact, find Jesus. More news to follow. God bless ya."
Keenan's letter to fan site toolshed.down.net explains that "some recent events have led me to the rediscovery of Jesus" and that "Tool will need to take the back seat." A posting on Tool's Web site alludes to Maynard's newfound Christianity as well, but who wrote the post is unclear. It reads, "I went to the studio to give Maynard a bottle of wine ... [and] not only wasn't Maynard there, but ... I was told Maynard has indeed 'found Jesus' and that, for this reason, he's abandoned the project for the time being, if not entirely."
But given their timing (one dated March 31, the other April 1), both posts were dismissed as April Fools' pranks, leaving fans wondering whether Keenan and the rest of Tool were just having a little fun with everyone.
The band's management could not be reached for comment or confirmation on the matter.
I gots a new apartment! we're all moved in, but now the unpacking nightmare begins. I see an ocean of boxes with mismatched contents whispering my name in a thousand hues of ass. But the good news is, the computers are online, God's TV is up and running (no suround sound yet) and I just had a sandwich! Now... if I could just get someone to unpack for me... oh and I get free cable! Reality TV a go-go, baby in 16x9 HDnessity! I drank coffee this morning and watched CNN and cartoons at the same time. It sound like this:
