John Mayer worked with Dave Chapelle, Kanye West and others there was some sort
of perception of honorary blackness. And I had no idea he was considered to be

My friends of a certain age laugh about the fact that it was Denzel

I think John Mayer came up with the impression that he had a hood pass
because no body jumped him when he goes to buy weed. He does look like any
other slacker white dude that's probably broke.

Good point. I think that African Americans have become apathetic when it
comes to racial issues and racist remarks. Let's face it there are so many
assholes like Rush Limbaugh and Sarah Palin that it makes comments like John
Mayer's almost seem tame.

Marvel's kow-towing to a few clowns who probably couldn't figure out which end
of a comic book to start reading at.
Free beta-testing is the way they should go with this. If the product's good,
then word-of-mouth would make the sales, or vice versa.

Probably not. But they do go to movies and buy action figures, which

Corporations are afraid of boycotts. That's why I suggested doing a few a
while back. If the group was one of the subsidiaries of Marvel they may have
ignored it.

Mr Worf, I heard about this earlier today, and I told a friend of mine in
Michigan, when I sent him the link, that I was kicking myself because I had one
of those, in pretty good condition (because, working so many hours as I did at
the time, I rarely played it), and I stuck it in a storage
Well it wasn't really about the game unit but the rare game that came with
it. There are a lot of people (mostly in Europe and Japan) that collect the
ultra rare game boxes.
