- diversionmary, on 10/12/2007, -0/+21Wiki isn't giving up the goods. Who was Joe Murphy?
Please, I'm not trying to be callous I just don't know who he was. - ShadedSpriter, on 10/12/2007, -3/+15you are not a bad person for not giving a ***** - you are a bad person for saying you don't give a *****.
- caldroun, on 10/12/2007, -1/+9Goodnight Joe. Cheyenne, awesome pic.
- mightymur, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7Cheyenne Wright was the artist behind this work of beauty. www.arcanetimes.com
- Christiana, on 10/12/2007, -1/+8I was moved to tears by this wonderful tribute.
- vmc1010, on 10/12/2007, -1/+7You moved us all Joe, with your courage and huge hart. Have one for me buddy.
We will miss you.
Victor - ShadedSpriter, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6He will be missed...I am really saddened by the fact I will not get to meet him...when I heard he had cancer I thought "he is going to pull through it is not lung cancer or anything." It is so sad that he is gone and his memory will live on always through the internet...wingin' it kick ass mystic ninja style.
- DragonRytr, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6This has brought me to tears several times today. I am moved beyond reason.
- mfarley, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6Goodnight Joe...
- Katsushiro, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6Missing you already, Joe...
- elmofromok, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6Wow. Really well done.
- TheRunes, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Just listen to the last few years of the above mentioned podcasts. Also there will be a memorial episode soon that highlights the best Joe moments. Once you hear Joe, you will be changed forever.
And I know this is technically blogspam, but it is on topic. http://www.scotthough.com/joe-murphy-rest-in-piece-my-friend/ - Robinh66, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4I'll never see the phrase "randy innuendo" in the same light again.
Bye Joe. - thlinux, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3My favorite pod-casts are from Farpoint Media. Listening to them is a wonderful way to pass the time on many company trips. Joe Murphy was always entertaining and thought provoking. I will miss him dearly. Thank you Joe. Michael and Summer need to bronze and mount Joe's headphones in memoriam.
- LavaHot, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3I'm sad to say that I've never heard of this man whose passing has moved you all to tears, and I fell a bit guilty at that. Can anyone recommend some examples of Joe's work to check out, for those of us among the un-initiated?
- ultimate_ed, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Friends, let us welcome those who are coming to find Joe Murphy for the first time. Most of us only got to know him through his voice and are richer for it.
While his light no longer shines, it continues to radiate out across the universe, touching more people as it goes. - dqbiggerfam, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4I've only heard Joe on my end of podcasts or live feeds, and had never even emailed him, but it's almost like we developed a friendship, and a frienship is a very hard thing to lose to death. Goodbye, Joe, and may you be in a better place now than this world ever was.
/me holds back tears - jorune100, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Sad to see you go.
- Ranneko, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Farewell Joe Murphy.
- tasarith, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3You will be missed Joe...Mason Rocket will live on forever in our hearts and minds. Your gentle wit and self depricating humor touched all who listened to the podcasts you assocated with. I hope you find peace. You were one of the good guys.
- Ranneko, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3@diversionmary: He was a podcaster, he was in Dragon Page, Wingin' It, Slice of Sci-Fi, and Kick-Ass Mystic Ninjas at least those are the ones I know him from.
Links for those are:

respectively
EDIT: Actually, not so sure about Dragon Page, I listen to too many podcasts from the Draco Vista Studios - Bronzethumb, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2The world is a sadder place for having lost Joe Murphy, but an infinately brighter place for having had him for a while. Rest in peace, Joe. You will be sorely missed.
- hermansantoni, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2I waiting for your new one comic like yours
- dqbiggerfam, on 10/12/2007, -2/+4While not directly helping Joe's family, one of JC's Beta Clones started this and I think it has much merit. I'm finishing my last Seti@home units to make way for this:

http://tinyurl.com/34z8pq - mklopez, on 10/12/2007, -2/+4At first, I thought this was some incredibly bad April 1st prank. I still cannot believe it happened so fast.
I dont know how to express my deepest sympathies for Joe's family and friends at FPM. They have given a lot to the podcast community, and in memory of Joe, I think we, the listeners, should give a little back:
http://joemurphymemorialfund.org
As Picard would have said: "Let's make sure history remembers the name: Joe Murphy!"
RIP - mtalon, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Yep, people die all the time. Many of you may not care. Some of us do.
1) He was a familiar voice to a lot of folks. The nature of the podcasts he did were very down to earth. It was like hanging out with a group of friends. While those who listened may not have known him personally, it still leaves a void.
2) He died young of a fast form of cancer. It was two or three months from diagnosis to now. Imagine if that happened to someone you knew, or someone you cared about. Someone who hadn't even got close to an age where something like this might "normally" happen.
3) The art included in the link is a very fitting tribute to him and to all of the "geeks" who've passed on too damn soon.
He's gone, and his friends are hurting. It might not be as "important" as the latest gaming news, but I think it says something that people care enough to digg this story up to the front. If you don't care, don't post. But give those who do some respect. - OutlawDJ, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Goodbye friend you will be greatly missed
- ayledi, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Brother....I'll see you next round.....and the ginger beer is on me.
- KazamaSmokers, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Damn. Joe was always the laconic soul of Farpoint, et al. Sad news. He will be missed.
- btgoss, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2I know what your saying... I thought it was just me... but it is powerful.
- obilon, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Bye Joe. You will be missed!!!!
- gobleugirl, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Joe was such a funny, genuine person. I only met him once, but listened to his voice often on the Slice of Sci Fi, Wingin' It, and the Kick Ass Mystic Ninjas podcasts.
I'll miss you, Joe. You are gone, but not forgotten. - FriedGeek, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1.

kick ass mystic ninja FTW - RapidEye, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Joe's main hangout was the KickAss Mystic Ninja's Podcast (he was one of the two original Ninjas) and Wingin It (where he and Summer got named the KAMN's). If you want to hear some of his works, listen to the earlier shows of KAMN http://www.kickassmysticninjas.com/ and most of the Wingin' It shows http://michaelandevo.com. If you listen to December through February episodes of Wingin It, you'll hear Joe talk about his illness, surgery, and why his cancer was untreatable.
He died very quickly from a very aggressive form of cancer. He was diagnosed late last fall and is already gone. I'd link to the blog where they gave the best posts, but the site is down now.
He was a SciFi geek in the truest sense, had a pleasant on-air disposition, generally positive outlook on life, and an all around nice guy. The world really is a lesser place without him.
PS - it looks like their entire site is down: the power of Digg.
Its a touching cartoon, when the site comes back up, give it a look and Digg it if you have a heart. - RapidEye, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1UPDATE - Mirror
You can see the cartoon Here: http://www.arcanetimes.com/ You'll have to wait for the other site to come back up to get the commentary, but the Capt America and Joe cartoon are on the front page of Arcanetimes. - OdinEye, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1At the very least you are a stupid person for not knowing enough when to keep your frakkin' mouth shut.
But yes - I suspect you are also bad. - vfrgurrl, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1This piece touches us all because it's so Joe. He was a man of wit, sarcasm and geeky humor. He would have loved it.
- LavaHot, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Sell? "What're ya buyin'?!" "What're ya sellin'?!" "I'll buy it at a high price!"
- KnitWitch, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I was stunned to hear the news this morning, but found the drawing very touching and befitting of Joe's truly unique personality. There is some solace in knowing that his body no longer enduring any pain and suffering. You will be deeply missed, Joe.
- oana77, on 10/11/2007, -0/+0We will already miss you
Oana,
http://benvarim.blogspot.com/ - Badallona, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0From listening to several podcasts featuring this part of the Kick-Ass Mystic Ninjas, many of us have come to care for this man. He'll be very much missed, not only by his friends and family, but by thousands of people he'd never met. That's quite a legacy to leave behind.
- Wyohairyman, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Nothing could be more fitting.
