Do you have to OOG at night ? Meh. /OOG I have an interview today at 2:30. Stock clerk at Publix. It will be interesting to see if this job uses my degree. Then again, Publix has been in the Fortune top 100 companies to work for list since it started a dozen or so years ago. /oog ---

It probably doesn’t matter if it does not use your degree. You’ll find it easier to get interviews for firms in your area if you’re holding down a job of some kind. ---

Access to any sort of discounts/freebies from the Publix Sandwich Deli is a major bonus benefit. Chicken Tenders sandwich specifically, or one of the Boar’s Head turkey varieties, or pastrami. Man, I loved that place for a good sub when living in Atlanta. Enjoy them regularly for me when the job comes through. I’m exuding confidence on your behalf. ---

I was told they can’t make a decision yet, that they would know something, and let me know by next Friday. A second Interview might also be needed. But then again, we talked wages and hours. So I feel good about it. ---

It is now Day Four. “Wow, you people just flat out suck. Get up, but don’t get dressed. Here’s hoping you aren’t hung-over. You are going to need to take a drink after seeing this one. Turn on your TV.” The heroes got up and flipped their TV’s on. They saw the following. [Wow, no one should ever have to see this.](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SGlFW2SgfNc) “I didn’t think it could get worse than Batman’s, but seriously, what was up with that? I mean, that wasn’t even before Veronica Mars came on. What’s up with that?” Through the walls, everyone could hear the same sound. It sounded like….a fire….and some stifled screaming. Everyone could here banging. Then it was silent. The TV’s flipped back on. [Whew, that was close! I knew you’d come!](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LHFz8hMj7-4&playnext=1&list=PLD58ABA2930FE0766) “Hey, she made it, right? Keith saved her. Yep, Daddy came for her, just like she knew he would. Wow, that was close. Wait.” The speaker crackled and everyone could here shuffling. “Wow. I forgot. We did not bring Keith Mars to the hotel. This is……awkward. I guess she died in the fire, then. Hope you didn’t like Veronica Mars, much.” **Thesearemypants is dead. He was Veronica Mars from Veronica Mars… He was a member of the Excellent Indivisible Unity of Good Characters. Verona Mars had detective connections and could investigate one player per Night. She was also young, pure, kind, and good. Her death affects the rest of the Heroes dramatically.** “Yeah, why don’t you folks all just relax a bit. It’s a lot to take in. I mean, you people are just catching bad breaks from everywhere! Gee, maybe one of you should……do something about it? Duh!!!” It is now….Night Four. Night Four will run with no specific end time. Pay attention here for the beginning of Day Five. ---

Damn. Well, of the remaining players, the only ones I have any major suspicion of are **Storyteller** and **Cookies.** I know it’s Saturday, but the game seems more non-verbal than usual. ---
