| One of the questions we're always asked is 'Who is Ed?' and 'Does he actually exist?' (So, that'll be two questions, then - Ed). Ed is, in fact, Edward Kanowski Rudolph McTavish Ockpine (...and dozens more 'hilarious' false middle names - Ed) McGuffin. He serves as our censor to protect YOU, and we hired him for his no-nonsense attitude. Yep, any swear words such as ("spit" - Ed) or ("truck" - Ed) will be censored off the bat. Offensive slogans like 'The Queen is just ("really great" - Ed)' or '(This passage has been omitted for its defamatory references - Ed)' will be covered up. And even though sometimes he may be too prudent with his editing shears, we'd like to point out that Ed really is a great guy. And not, for example, a ("Walla Walla Washington." You're just testing me now aren't you? - Ed). And as for the question of whether he exists, or whether he's just an attempt to capture the nostalgia of the 'Ed' comments prevalent in Nineties computer magazines, is easily answered. Of course Ed exists. Don't you, Ed? Ed? (Silence. Tumbleweed rolls by.) STOP PRESS: Okay, we've teased you for long enough about Ed existing/not-existing, etc, so for the first time EVER, we present a photo of our beloved editor's frightening appearance, within which you'll find exactly why he earns the tag of 'omnipresent'. A brief warning, however: clicking on the following link may give you nightmares and put you in therapy the rest of your life. You have been warned. "ED! ARISE!" |
