Ah, but they're cool people. 'Cause I love that dirty water. Oh, Boston you're my home." Dirty Water by The Standells CHAPTER 1 I KILLED YOUR WIFE. CATCH ME IF YOU CAN. TRY AND KILL ME. HA HA. The letter had been sent, not to my home, but here. My office in the old Textile Building at the frayed edges of Boston's famous Chinatown and infamous Combat Zone. White business-size envelope, my name and address typed, no return address. Postmarked Boston. A single sheet of 8 1/2" X 11" white paper folded in thirds. The sentences composed of capital letters apparently cut out of magazines. Diedre had been killed five years before and the murderer never found. Her doom-day was a few months after our one-year wedding anniversary. As I recalled: November 13th. The hair on my forearms and the back of my neck rose when I looked at my desk calendar. Today was Thursday. November 13th. CHAPTER 2 Should I bring the letter to the cops? What could they do but dust it for fingerprints? And I would bet my crime-detecting iridescent fire opal ring that the killer had worn latex gloves. Why had he waited so long to surface? Why had he surfaced at all? Why was he seemingly asking to be killed? Why had he killed Diedre? Where was he? Who was he? Who? As I thought of Diedre, I felt a bittersweet melancholy, a nostalgia for what might have been but never was, a high and deep yearning for what could never be.

  • Knights of the Road, Knights of the Rail,I Wasn’T Interested Or Impressed
    by Aaron Houx inspiredinspired byby Michael Gentry First, let me say that this game is my own attempt to flesh out an idea and game created by the tal- ented Mike Gentry, so all credit goes out to him. As this wraps up, Mike has begun posting Hard Travellin’, his own take on the hobo genre. Check it out at http://www.edromia.com– it’s really quite good. When I first saw the seeds of Knights of the Road, Knights of the Rail,I wasn’t interested or impressed. I thought to myself that it was yet another attempt to fill a tiny niche in role-playing, catering only to a few who would tire of it easily and lose interest when the story ideas dried up. The word wrong does not begin to describe this preconception. After seeing the Coen Brothers’ movie O Brother Where Art Thou, I must say that I saw the fascina- tion inherent in the time period,as well as the opportunity to explore the situations that people faced during Depression-Era America. I began to obsess over this subject myself. After doing some research on both the Internet and at the local libraries, I found myself enthralled with those men and women who felt the call of the roads and the rails. I encountered people who still ride the rails and call themselves hoboes, as well as those who strive to keep the memories of days gone by. The project quickly swelled, incorporating a lot of history and flavor into it. I searched for pictures to tell the story, and stories to tell about the pictures.
