Unofficial Tex Murphy

It's the doldrums after the holidays. Nothing to do. But wait! Here's an idea. . .

How about a game thread like the movie name thread, only make it Tex related? In the movie name game, someone would post a movie name (e.g. "West Side Story") and the next person would post a movie name beginning with the last letter of the previous movie name (e.g. "You've Got Mail")

So, let's do one that's Tex related. For example, someone might post "Under A Killing Moon," the next person might post "Nilo."

It can be wide open as far as the Tex related part goes: object names, actors, locations, hint book publisher name, etc.

So, let's see how it goes. Of course, I'll start it (and hopefully not end it):

Mean Streets.

Sylvia

Autotech

Horton

Nexus

Stanton (as in Collier Stanton, from Martian Memorandum)

Hammerhead

Newsstand

I like this idea.

Danger's a little like Jell-O; there's always room for a little more.

Euphoria

The stuff that Cross *Said* the NSA was scoping out the Fuschia Flamingo for. Her life was never in any danger. You Screwed up!

I love this too! I also have another idea ...

Ardo Newpop

Percival, Lowell

Louie LaMintz

Z-Enzyme

(I think that's what it was called, the thing you had to get out of Murphy's head in Overseer, right before Clint Howard waddles in.)

Also, please don't end a letter with X or Z or Q anymore, it'll stop this game dead.
