Untitled[edit]

Maximus, thanks for contributing to this article! Wow, I only created it yesterday. I saw him in On the Stem, and let me tell you, the man is astonishing. I had to go back two days later, and I got to assist him on stage. Paul Klenk 02:34, 19 Oct 2003 (UTC)

Samw, thanks for helping with the photo. This page has turned out quite nicely in only 24 hours. Paul Klenk 03:34, 19 Oct 2003 (UTC)

MythBusters appearance[edit]

Mr. Jay made a noteworthy appearance on an episode of MythBusters, wherein the myth that normal playing cards could be used as deadly weapons was explored. Perhaps this could be mentioned somewhere in the article. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Simba Jones (talk • contribs) 02:59, 23 March 2006.

External links for books[edit]

I noticed that many items in the books section have links to amazon. Is this appropriate? at0 19:46, 20 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Probably more of a function of laziness than any serious spam attempt. I will re-do the list in proper form as soon as I finish this post. DoctorJoeE ^{review transgressions}/_{talk to me!} 02:17, 21 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
