I've just been noticing that the fictional characters of Mad Men all have Twitter profiles and tweet all kinds of things like they were the real characters. Any of you who Tweet a lot already willing to add a Twitter profile as one of the characters from Jack Palms Crime (or YJ)?

I'd be willing to give out free bonus in terms of episodes, shout outs, content, all that jazz for those who would! I think this could be a really cool way to unite, grow and spread the meme of the Jack Palms Podcast!

What characters are available?

You wanting to focus more on YJ or the whole Palmsverse (which sounds so nasty that you must use this term at all times)

Me, if I'm going to do it, I want to be Vlade..

Oh, you wanted him?? Tough Shit... I called him

Aww man, some of the Czechs

Aww man, some of the Czechs tweeting it up would be sweet! Go for that! Personally, I don't know who I'd be interested in were I to take on this mission, but I'll keep thinking.

They're yours!

Ok guys, join the Palmsverse and hop on board! You are now Vlade, Randy. You got it. Let's start this thing. Your mission: to tweet exactly and only as Vlade would tweet, find a picture that looks like a suitable Vlade (I might suggest a candid shot of a young Vlad Yeltzin--or the NBA 80s hero Schrunis Marschulonis (sp?)), answer all questions in regards to the Palmsverse and friend anyone you can!Let's DO this!Friend me! Friend me!

Oh no! I'm being followed by

Oh no! I'm being followed by the Czechs! Well, and Junius!

There's no way I have time to handle generating twitter content for a character at this point ... but I'm following 'em. =)

But what about

us poor women???? There's not enought females to go around. I think we need more female characters! If I had time to Twitter I would claim Jane Gannon but not sure I have time for it.

Twittering as a character

It actually does NOT take that much time... maybe 10 minutes a day. I'm using twhirl to have both my regular account and the Vlade account open...

Basically, I don't pay much attention to the Vlade feed unless it is a reply or a direct message. Other than that I might comment on something Seth said or just do a general "Czechs rule" type comment

Vlade's followers

That is because the Czech's bring mad skills to the table and everybody knows JACK ain't jack without the Czech's

Wait until Al and David get on twitter. We will ride hurt on twitter.

Aww man that'll be crazy! And that'll be some sweet interaction, too. Wasn't Vlade already looking for some more blow because Al ran out?

Full list of characters?

Does anyone have a full list of the characters? I'm trying to decide who @gocyclones should double as. I've been having fun with @VladeKlodivo, @freemanjones and @akakievich.

Master List

Seth probably has a master list somewhere, but there are still plenty of important people that haven't hit twitter yet.

Jane, Al, David, Mills, any of the Colombians, any of the people at the clubs, Alexi's henchmen... and we still don't have a JACK PALMS yet.

Al on Twitter

Having AL on there would be redass!

I think Seth already has an icon for Al, but I don't think he has someone assigned already, but ask away man. Al and Vlade will tear shit up.

That's Bad

Ok, NEW RULE

You can't make jokes with Czech in the title unless:
1) You are the Palms Father... this is just understood
2) You are in fact, Czech
3) You aren't a Czech but you play one on Twitter

yo. you short wimmin

http://twitter.com/janegannon

listen up as she counts the pregnant czech girls, personally refuses to release custody to the authorities even of the ones too hooked to cook and tries to find a czech interpreter that was never associated with the KGB and who doesn't dress like a street corner catamite and as she faces her review board for actions unbecoming of an agent (you know, disobeying orders, harboring fugitives, saving girls lives, unseating the chief of police, stuff like that)
