The best way to get adhesive tape residue off of a window is to "soak" it in peanut butter over night (just slather it on freely). By the next day the peanut butter and residue will wipe right off.
You'll sometimes see large circles of brick set into a street in San Francisco. This is to signify there is a cistern located at that spot; a precaution taken after the great earthquake and fire in 1906 devastated the city. The fire chief had warned not keeping multiple records of the city's water reservoirs was dangerous and foolhardy, a fact proven after he was incapacitated (and later died from his injuries) and was unable to direct firefighters who were forced to resort to dynamiting sections of the city to act as firebreaks.
The first strike ever recorded was in ancient Egypt. Labourers working on the pyramids refused to continue until their eyeliner supply was reinstated back to its former quantities. This was not from any vanity, but because the eyeliner helped to keep them from being blinded by the sunlight reflecting of the sand, similar in effect to the black bars modern NFL players apply to underneath their eyes today.
Oh, or did you mean you wanted to hear something new about Sam and Max? Sorry, can't help you there.

Since the firefighters were somewhat untrained in the use of dynamite, it seems they did more damage than good. It's estimated that up to 50% of the fires that devastated SF were actually caused by the dynamiting itself.

Actually the best way to remove the most common adhesive residues (e.g. price stickers) is to try water, alcohol or salad oil (in that order only because oil is the messiest). Which one works depends on what the adhesive is based on.

Considering the other 50% were caused by an unmanned cooking stove, I think what we've learned here today is San Franciscans has a long, long history of blowing stuff up and burning it down, with the final culmination being, of course, Mythbusters.
In other news, or other something anyway, nice logo! I don't get why the Olympic torch with the devil stuff, but I guess I'll just have to wait to find out. Also, I have no idea who Kevin Pereira is, but I hope they warn his neighborhood about him.
Love the title & logo (but all hardcore fans might continue to call it Sam & Max 2010)! Can't wait 'til it comes out on Xbox 360. I'd get it for PC but a. My computer is crap and can barely play Sam & Max Season 1 and b. My parents don't want their credit card data stolen so they won't buy anything online.
[EDIT] I think I had some dynomite, but some stupid robotic tissue box stole it...

By "salad oil" do you mean vegetable oil? If so, any one that works better than others, or does it also depend on the type of adhesive?
Let's see, Sunflower oil is the most common in France, then peanut oil. Here however there is canola oil. I also like walnut oil but I wouldn't want to waste it.
(I've only ever used alcohol to remove adhesive stuff, it has always worked so far)
I know I'm going to get jumped on for saying this, but derailing a thread because you can is not actually awesome. It's just annoying, and frustrating if you're interested in what the topic was originally about.
Maybe that makes me a grumpy old person who hates fun, but my idea of fun involves not having to sift through a ton of pointless discussion to get to the point, especially when backreading. And I'm twenty, I just couldn't think of a better metaphor.
Well, sorry, dude. BTW, you do realize complaining about people derailing the thread actual helps to derail the thread. Just saying. Just like me apologizing for helping to derail the thread and pointing out that complaining about derailing the thread is actually derailing the thread is actually derailing the thread.
Sorry, Shwoo, but we're derailing the thread more from a lack of things to talk about then because we really support derailment. Besides, it helps to keep this thread "alive" for when we will have something more concrete to obsess over. Which will hopefully be really, really soon, because I, for one, am dying for some kind of trailer. Dying I tell you! Those italics don't lie!
P.S. I said peanut butter, because speaking from experience it will work when nothing else does, although I was specifically referring to windows, not just any surface. Seriously, you leave masking tape on a window for any length of time and it is an absolute bear to get off any other way.
This is one of my busiest weeks of the year, I've got mountains and mountains of mindless university-related papers I've got to finish up here. You know what would really cheer me up? It's simple, really: all I need is a release date, some way to throw my money at Telltale, and maybe a trailer. I certainly would get a lot more work done if I didn't have the crazy fanboyistic urge to check the forum and the blog every hour. Save my education, Telltale! Release that trailer!
If you don't have anything relevant to talk about, then why post at all? Other people clearly do, and the thread's not going to be buried any time soon.
Will, you seem to be coming down with some kind of Sam & Max season 3 virus.. While you are still in this state can you cough up a trailer or maybe some gameplay footage too?
I have the money, but I don't have it in my Paypal Account. My sister is going to kill me if I ask her to use the Credit Card... what to do, what to do....

Are you some kind of sick man gaining pleasure from torturing unwitty forumgoers. You evil... YOU!
EDIT: ^ Link ain't working.
Care to tell us something we don't know?
Now my totally championship worthy headache and my stress due work somehow wear off.
Now, I love the title.
Dammit! Please tell me I'll have whole March to pre-order it!

GREAT logo. Is that an olympic flame? Hmm, maybe we'll be visiting Mount Olympus...
Man, I want more, more info!

OH HEY AWESOME SAM&MAX!
Now where is the Dynamite, and fire...or was that just ploy.

Sweet logo! As someone else said, I'm loving the obvious Twilight Zone reference. I wonder what the upcoming big news is.

Hopefully some ingame info about S&M2010.
And she's not a dude, either. I guess you can't win in this one
I hope we get awesome new characters. Though, I was curious as to how Bosco would have evolved following last season's ending.

Maybe an announcement is imminent...
Maybe they've made it to where we can view it, as they figure we're going to go ahead and pre-order it anyway?
I may have just developed a patience hernia.
Then again, it appears to be empty yet anyway.
I don't think it's possible to tell if it's empty or not, though. It's private.
I have a feeling that today (America's tomorrow) is going to be a wonderful day...
Oh yeah, I'm supposed to be working
