World of Weird Al Yankovic

My wife knows the nephew of Donnie Osmond, but she didn't like the idea of bothering him for his uncle's signature, so that idea went nowhere.

For the record, even if WWW had gotten back to me, I didn't run into any celebrities at the Greek show (besides Al), and thus wouldn't have been able to get any signatures.

I guess I could have gotten Vikki's (as she was the host of AlFest, her signature may have counted), but that was it.

Thanks, anyway, BS!

(Question for both teams)

We found that there is a real 6-Jackson Park Express bus route in Chicago. We tried to contact them and see if they wanted to be in on the fun, but alas no e-mail back. Their loss.

for the record, my original plan was to print out a very large image (poster size) of our logo and have everyone at the show BS was at sign it, but it just became a hassle to try to get to the library to print it, to ship it 2-day to BS, hassle BS to make sure everyone signed it, add money to my print card, etc. And since I could tell my other team members would not be contributing anything I just couldn't get behind it. the things happening in my personal life are good things and they took precedence, which was unfortunate timing for the game.

I'm glad others liked the challenge and I didn't mean to belittle it, but too much of the work required for it (at least from my point of view) needed to take place off the forum and I found myself not being a fan of others doing the work for me. WOWAY was largely inactive (minus behind-the-scenes PMs taking place) for the 2 weeks of this challenge, which is another reason i thought it didn't have much to do with WOWAY.

thanks to BS for being available and willing.

At the VERY LEAST you could have responded to tell us you weren't going to do it, so we could tackle other plans...

oh well.

I confirmed that it would do, but it seems he didn't get my reply, and we were both wondering why the other isn't replying

This kinda makes look like a dick. I responded to your initial message and you never replied. And it kinda would be weird for me to go up to Scott and say "hey sign this thing and let me take a picture of ya for a fan forum devoted to your friend." And then I didnt get a follow up response from you when we finally did connect it wasn't until the day it was due and I was busy that day. Look, Mellow Weasel, I love ya. You're funny sexy and cool, but ya know what isn't funny sexy and cool, disparaging one of your friend's names (we're friends right?). You're fired.

Trump for president. I'm back baby.

What the hell? I think I made it pretty clear that it wasn't your fault:

I didn't blame you for anything and I don't see how it makes you look like a dick. As far as I can tell, I wrote pretty much the same thing you wrote now. Darn humans and their sensitivity

On the related note, someone should check if private messaging is working all right, because I wrote him not one, but two messages:
