 		Random searching on combinations of 'salamander' w/ 'card' w/ 'game', only really notable thing so far is that in "Ender's Game" by Orson Scott Card, Chapter 7 is titled "Salamander". Hasn't gotten me nearer a name for the ticket, though.

 		Googling black rabbit card game brought up this
Quote:
Why, Who I Am

What I do, where I go.
What I think, I don't know.
I try to do right, never wrong.
Bad things may happen but life goes on.

When I get up to start the day, .
I always go, out ready to play.
Live life to the fullest whatever you do.
Laugh and a smile is what you need to see you through.

This is what I believe, this is how I live.
Always do your best, and to those in need you give.
So as I am sure you can see.
Life can be simple if you let it be.

But I'm sure I know what you must think.
Life isn't always much fun and can really stink.
Sometimes its rough but when times are hard.
Stay in the game straight through to the last card.

This is a small clue of why, what I do.
It bearly starts to show, Why where I go.
and don't blink or you'll miss, Why what I think.
Just remember all these little gems and you
might start to see, Why who I am.

Black Rabbit


23 of 25 poems by "Black Rabbit"... "Stay in the game straight through to the last card." Looking through other poems, some themes resonate w/ JDM's character IMO. Dunno if IG or OOG...

 		Flyer
The Game?
Long time lurker...first time poster!

This one really piqued my curiosity...and since I was going to be in SF this morning I just had to check this out!

I think I found one of the flyers in Union Square but I'm not sure how to post it here. I scanned it. Can someone help?

--Dale

edit: Figured it out!

Demolays Grail? - missing an e, used to many l's

demolay is rage? lol
email dog ears


Contact Jenny? Ok PK was obviously back story meta, the goal of the game, or to win, is to find Jenny before the end of April.

The song on the poster is Mad World, which in combination with the freaky bunny suit, is a Donny Darko tie in.

 		SF Contact
My wife is glaring at me for sitting on the computer during Easter! (It took much longer than I thought to make this post! Embarassed )

This is very cool and I can sometimes be a resource in San Francisco. I'll be on here as much as I can! These things are addicting (which is why I never do more than lurk!)

Thanks!

 		Did you get to Union Square?
It was only a few blocks east of the Curran. I'll see if I can take a picture of where I found it and post it here next week. Do you think that would help?

 		I stopped at powell - i guess that's not a few blocks - sorry - no, I don't think a photo would help - the flyer's the important thing

windup - did you by any chance grab all of those black rabbit poems? - the header still displays at that poem site but all of the internal links give an http 500 server error

 		@grady - no. everything at that site appears to be down now, not just the black rabbit poems. hope that's a coincidence.

I count the bolded letters as:

Taking out "DeMolay" you still have "e i r a ! s g"

http://wordsmith.org/anagram/anagram.cgi?anagram=eirags&t=1000

most likely looks like "DeMolay Is Rage!" ???

obvious Donny Darko refs here. Wasn't "it plays you" the tagline for EA's Majestic: the Game?

It doesn't say "contact jenny", it says "CONTACT 'LENNY' PRIOR TO THE FIRST DAY OF APRIL, 2009"

the little tags that have all been pulled off obviously say "TheG(ame)" and 415(phone number missing), where 415 = SF area code.
