[UA] A campaign kick-off for the Lunch Buddies?

[Wade Lahoda]

  Wow, you've got the whole Unknown Armies atmosphere thing down, man.
=)  I'm definitely using pieces of this...  Granted, I've got to
figure out where they lead, but some of this stuff is a wonderful way
to start.

  I know if she finds out about the Jesus connection, the one player
who played in Bill in Three Parts will freak. =)

  I'm curious if you picked K for a reason(a word for his newest
death), or if it was just randomly thrown out? =)

  Now I'm also started thinking of "Different ways to break reality".
I mean, in a highly problematic or unusual way...  I've been trying to
think of things I could hook up that are a violation on the same level
three Bills are.  Heh. ;)
