JENING Endorses Mr. CHEESUS’s Band: The Phonix!

JENING’s very good friend, [TC]CHEESUS, is a skilled TF2 player, and a unique in-game personality so inspirational that his mere existence has given rise to one of TF2’s most long lived community groups: Team Cheesus! What you may not know is that Mr. Cheesus is also a great saxophonist and is an esteemed member of a first-rate Canadian jazz band, The Phonix! Check out The Phonix at their website here>>

JENING is also pleased to share with all of you a professional grade video of some of The Phonix’s performances:

And as a special treat, JENING is pleased, after having received Mr. Cheesus’s express permission, to link to Mr. Cheesus himself on the band’s website: CHEESUS>>

JENING Announces One Thousand Hour Party For This Saturday!

JENING is pleased to announce that JENING’s 1000 Hour As Spy Party will be held this coming weekend, tentatively scheduled for Saturday, September 12, 2009, likely late night Pacific Time! Any JENINGfriends who would like to sing (whether they be new songs or old classics!), perform, or otherwise share their talents: let JENING know so that we may properly include you! Also, as JENING is but a scant three hours away from 1000 hours, JENING will be conserving his spy hours this week by playing other classes!

Keep apprised of the latest details for the 1000 Hour Party by checking the JENINGblog frequently!  JENING would be particularly interested to hear requests for new JENINGsongs!

The Murderer of the Malign, a JENING Novelette by Secret Squirrel

CHAPTER 6

Powerful torrents whisk and howl around the lumberyard, and they only increase in strength as evening draws near. Smokey clouds rule the skies once more and begin to exert minuscule and seemingly subtle tears upon the traveling men garbed in indigo, as well as the three which straggle behind: the man in the navy-blue suit who dons the uniform of the gang, and the two donning sky-blue and white striped clothing.

The Murderer of the Malign, a JENING Novelette by Secret Squirrel

CHAPTER 5

“’ere we are, mate,” Dally declares.

He parks the camper-van a great distance away from a dilapidated lumber-mill, and the two exit the vehicle and gaze upon the seemingly empty lumberyard. A faint breeze eerily sets a windmill in motion, and its creak is unsettling. The light sound of voices chattering and laughter is heard from within the lumber-mill.

“This should be BLU’s headquarters,” says Dally. “Let’s get right to it then. Ya remember our plan?”

The Murderer of the Malign, a JENING Novelette by Secret Squirrel

CHAPTER 4

Time has passed since the meeting of the vengeful child and the mysterious man, over a decade to be exact, and over that time, Dally has taught the boy extensive knowledge on the arts learned by the boy’s father. Jening has learned to be a deadly spy of danger, a chivalric man of class, and a spectacular speaker of sorts. The two have vigorously trained with each other, shivving trees and other objects resembling foes, mastering natural obstacle courses, and even excelling in written studies, together no doubt, as Dally had much to learn of his own.
