Talk to Whizzi about using the logo. I think you'd have to get his OK on it, especially concerning the picture.

We need WOWAY badges, especially with tour season coming! If I knew what I was doing, I'd do it, but I don't.
Hmmm...something's gone horribly awry here...

When I made the name badges for the Cinncinnati show, I did get WhiZZi's permission to use the logo. I stood outside the gate and caught peoples attention with a rather giant version of the name badge on my bag, which helped everyone know where to get the badges. I had most printed up ahead of time with screen names as well as real names on it, for those that let me know ahead of time!
Since I didn't know what most of the people looked like ahead of time, I, of course needed to ask who they were, and it still surprised me when one, nice ,young man said,"I'm WhiZZI!". It was a great honor for me to meet him there!
I believe we had about 30-35 WOWAYers there!

If I find out how to put pictures here, I will be glad to show you what they looked like. I need my brothers help, though, because I am fairly clueless on the computer!

I would be glad to TRY and set up something for our identification purposes!

After leaving the CD signing that night my friend Frank and I were stopped by a woman saying she was with Lifetime Television and that they were stopping people on the street for psychic readings for a new show called "Lisa Williams: Life Among the Dead" and asked if we'd do an interview. I'm still wearing my WOWAY name tag! Here is the clip on the website! :whoot:

Now that is weird. :D

Of course... everybody has grandparents. They're often dead. :(. They're always either male or female... and it's a pretty good cinch that a grandfather is a father figure. And with Frank's coloring, in this country of immigrants, some not-been-here-since-the-Pilgrims ancestry is also a good guess. What impresses me about "psychics" is their ability to pick up on subtle cues given by the person they're reading and run with them. It takes a lot of psychological perceptiveness. I think I'd call them "psyche-ics." But that's just my opinion. And it looks like it was a fun experience.
"Weird Al" has a charisma that's all his own. The awkward, the misshapen, the socially inept flock to his banner.

It was fun. And Frank confessed to me that he "played along" with a few of the things she talked about. She interviewed me a little but didn't say anything that wasn't general. For example she said I knew someone with a heart condition that was on medication. :rolleyes: How many heart patients do youknow that AREN'T on meds?

That's cool. What a way to end the night. It's too bad they couldn't have gotten that nametag in focus. Talk about 12 seconds of fame there :P

Between that and the picture of me at the signing on the Getty Images website I'm practically a celebrity now! :P
