« Dr. Benway | Main | Neverland » January 29, 2002ForCorI just found out that Foreign Correspondents is available at Amazon.com! I'll put it up on the right in a week or two, but I'm pretty excited about it being available at the evil amazon, and I wanted to share that with everyone. :-) Bloggie results have not yet been revealed to me...so I don't know if we should be getting tanked to celebrate, or to drown our sorrows... ;-) Comments
I say Tanked I have already started. Posted by: Lobos34 at January 29, 2002 02:16 PMBest of Both Worlds part two is on TNN!! I just saw Picard cry. Aww got to love Picard. And I'll tell you Wil is looking HOTT in this show in his ensigns red uniform. LOL!! Hey its the truth. Gees I hate Shelby. lol! Posted by: DaleJrBlueEyes at January 29, 2002 02:17 PMI'm watching Stand By Me AGAIN, cuz its the only thing on. Stupid university movie channel, this is like the 1000th time theyve given it this month. boom bahbah boom bahbah BOOM. Posted by: JenniferInLubbock at January 29, 2002 02:19 PMAt least they're not showing "Hoosiers" for the 8,382,547th time.... Posted by: kendoka at January 29, 2002 02:24 PMOur University channel shows Forrest Gump all the time. Also some sex movie thingy. Surprising eh? Posted by: DaleJrBlueEyes at January 29, 2002 02:24 PMOK Riker is getting comfy in Picards chair. BASTARD! LOL!! Oh look its Wil on tv. LOL So young. When did he get so old people? lol! Posted by: DaleJrBlueEyes at January 29, 2002 02:27 PMWil may be getting old but he still looks like he's 17. Wish I was that lucky :-) Posted by: robnelle at January 29, 2002 02:30 PMOk Im scared. You know that earthquake site that Wil posted. Simi Valley dominates that list with the most earthquakes. I HATE THEM AND GUESS WHERE I LIVE!! Of course I only live there 4 months of the year now since I attend school in Arizona. Simi Valley is a big earthquake waiting to happen. *Sighs* Hey I guess Simi makes up for the earthquakes in the fact that it's the safest city in the nation and Insurrection was taped in the hills in Simi and that show with Data and Lore and the Borg was taped in the Hills too. Got to love a film town. Posted by: DaleJrBlueEyes at January 29, 2002 02:31 PMAwwww I am 19 and still looking young. Not really. I look old. Posted by: DaleJrBlueEyes at January 29, 2002 02:32 PMMy gosh...Wil & Angelina Jolie would have some hot children....and Wil as Marilyn Monroe was far too freaky for me! Posted by: Bagelcat at January 29, 2002 02:38 PMWhy the hell haven't they invented some sort of cyberpunk plug into your brain Johnny Mnemonic computer interface bullshit yet? I've got the lobster claws like a motherfucker. Posted by: James Grandt at January 29, 2002 02:40 PMas long as we're drinking either way...i'm keeping my fingers crossed. Posted by: Stuffie at January 29, 2002 02:53 PM"I don't know if we should be getting tanked to celebrate, or to drown our sorrows... ;-)" Either way, I'm more than willing to pop open my vodka for a second night in a row. :)
Celebrate, drown sorrows, what's it really matter? The important thing is getting tanked! Posted by: Radiofreewill at January 29, 2002 03:04 PMDarn have to wait until tomorrow at 10.00 pm. We can always just get tanked for the hell of it! Either way, everyone is getting tanked :) Posted by: jason at January 29, 2002 03:45 PMI can only get half-tanked tonight....got class/work tomorrow. :-( Posted by: Lenny at January 29, 2002 03:48 PMGet tanked! Even if you don't win...everybody here loves site... Posted by: Brit at January 29, 2002 03:57 PMhey, maybe I'm out of the loop or something, but why exactly is amazon.com evil? Just curious. :) (hope you win, btw) Posted by: John at January 29, 2002 05:54 PMYeah I agree with that...getting drunk with posting..uh..riiiggghht. Again No comment Amazon has had "issues" with how they "protect" the private information of their clients. Better options... DVDs: Books: Music: That's right, RIAA... Suck my dick. Luddite motherfuckers. Posted by: Spudnuts at January 29, 2002 06:14 PMPlus, having worked in tech in Seattle, I know a few people who have done time at Amazon. They treat their "employees" like shit. Keeping pace with Microsoft and Nike for "defining the 21st century workplace." Gulag. Posted by: Spudnuts at January 29, 2002 06:18 PMBorders.com (where I work :P Well, I work @ Borders) has teamed up with Amazon.com for their website. Borders has learned well from Amazon.. or is it the other way around. It's funny when your supervisor says to you, "hey, at least you're in a better mood today." My response? "I'm only in a bad mood when management f*cks me over!" BTW, my computer decided to play nice & let me vote for the Bloggies or whatever they're called (is it sacreligious to not know the name (did I spell sacreligious right?)) OK... anyway, so I voted for you, Wil. In every category. For the rest of them I just clicked on whoever had the neatest name. *shrug* Anyway, good luck! I hope you won! Laurie Posted by: Froggy at January 29, 2002 07:04 PMYesterday on my radio show I brought up Amazon (just to say "buy this CD from the label and support this dead artist's widow and daughter instead") ... and just for fun, I called it evil; a minute later, this guy calls and was like "What did you just say about Amazon.com?" I thought he was actually going to yell at me for calling Amazon evil, but alas, he had "just turned on the radio" and really didn't know what I was talking about. Scared me for a minute, though. Oh yeah, I also voted for Wil's site in all the appropriate Bloggie categories, and whatever looked coolest in the others. Somebody in a usenet group was mad because Wil got nominated against all his friends. *snicker* Posted by: tammy at January 29, 2002 07:55 PMI'm still trying to figure out how Amazon.com is a better deal with having to pay shipping and all, than just going down the street to the bookstore and buying the book there. Posted by: kendoka at January 30, 2002 12:23 AMWell, I got an email a couple of days ago that Greymatter dropped out of the running so, it gave us a chance to re-vote the catergories that Greymatter was in. So, perhaps that is why you haven't yet heard. They are waiting for the new votes. Posted by: klaurel at January 30, 2002 12:53 AM>>>Voting is now closed. The winners will be announced on irc.turlyming.net in channel #BlogIRC Wednesday at 10:00 PM EST (GMT-5), and then posted to this page. From the Bloggies site. Posted by: klaurel at January 30, 2002 12:56 AMEither way, *raises mug* "Here's to WWDN! Fooooooorrrr, he'sa jolly good fellow, *hic* Posted by: turtles11 at January 30, 2002 02:04 AMYa gotta figure that Wil's gonna win one of the categories he was entered in... Posted by: Danie at January 30, 2002 02:26 AMi just wanted to use the word "tanked". "tanked". neeto! now i fit in! Posted by: Pumpkin King at January 30, 2002 02:39 AMI wonder why Wil isn't on the cover of forcor? I voted for WWDN! Tough choice between you and Loobylu (for merchandise), but in the end WFS won out. The funny thing about Amazon is that when they were smaller (ie. just books) they used to get their books from the likes of Powell's and other small bookstores (especially for out of print/hard to find). I've been to Powell's -- you really could get lost in there. There's a reason the sections are color coded. I think a couple of commenters here were tanked when they posted. :) Posted by: sandra at January 30, 2002 03:01 AMI'm such a loser! I've had ForCor on DVD for weeks and haven't had time to sit down and watch it. I'm gonna try this weekend (except during the Super Bowl! Go Pats!) Posted by: Lara at January 30, 2002 03:17 AMI seriously need to see ForCor.. I'd buy it but I'm broke because I bought the Wil's Posse shirt (I can't wait 'til it comes!!). It looks really good, though. Well, I'm watching the TNN Star Trek Movie Marathon during Super Bowl weekend, though I'll probably watch the Super Bowl itself because my dad will steal the big TV for the game. He's obsessed with the Pats. I want 'em to win, too, but I'm in the minority, aren't I? Posted by: Aura at January 30, 2002 03:29 AMHey, that "Foreign Correspondents" also has that Corin Nemec in it. Mr. Nemec was excellent in that "Parker Lewis Can't Lose", which was the better version of "Ferris Bueller" for TV. That show was innovative as hell, broke down the fourth wall before it was cool. Unfortunately nobody saw it because it was a Fox show in the early days of the network, and was put up against "Sixty Minutes". Hey Wil, I never got a chance to point you in the direction of the best CSS editor out there - Topstyle. Their website at http://www.bradsoft.com/topstyle/ has info on css, and the editor is simply amazing - nothing else that I've seen even comes close. Re: Corin Nemec... Scientologist apparently, but you're right, "Parker Lewis Can't Lose" was a great show. I can't see Abraham Benrubi without thinking about Kubiac... Posted by: Nodecam at January 30, 2002 04:03 AMAnd if you're not able to buy your own copy, you could always call your local indy video rental place and ask them to buy a copy. Posted by: jbay at January 30, 2002 04:40 AM*Passes Uncle Wil the mezcal tequilla with the worm in the bottle and grins* Now Wil, you know what they say,"It's an honor just being nominated". LOL! Now you know what they mean. I hope you win. You got a lot of stuff at ebay at Amazon.com. Posted by: adeversole at January 30, 2002 04:41 AMIt's an honor just being nominated, but I hope you win anyway. Posted by: adeversole at January 30, 2002 05:01 AMIt's an honor just being nominated, but I hope you win anyway. Posted by: adeversole at January 30, 2002 05:09 AMDouble the grog ration Cap'n, that ship be carrying the Swedeish Bikini Team. Better send young Jim 'Awkins below deck. Posted by: Fred Fowler at January 30, 2002 05:39 AMLoobylu did an alternate cover on a comic project that the Australian Government were doing (that I also did a cover for). Was rather interesting to see her there! ^_^ Small world! And dude, I got toasted the night before cause your American Sailors were in town and they kept buying me vodka. Oh. My. Poor. Body. No! Not for THAT reason you sickos! I don't get headaches when I have hangovers - my body just feels like it's being pulled into a black hole, strung out so thin it's just one particle wide. *nods*. I'll drink to you anyway Wil, cause you rock! Here's to Wil, and here's to my failing liver! Posted by: nacey at January 30, 2002 05:48 AMalright. everyone gonna be here at 10 tonight so we can all find out... together? and then we can beat up everyone who didn't vote if Wil doesn't win. excellant. Posted by: Mandy2 at January 30, 2002 07:05 AMFor as much as you blog, why can't you answer emails? Slack ass :P Posted by: Kym at January 30, 2002 07:28 AMHow come no one ever posts about how cute Wil is? And how all us girls know that when we were 16, we had monstrous crushes on him? All my friends waved "Teen Beat" magazine all over the place when Wil was in it. Of course, now we're adults. We don't wave "Teen Beat" magazine. We wave issues of "Star Trek: The Magazine". Posted by: Crinkle at January 30, 2002 07:49 AMCrinkle, let's just say we grew up. And now to quote a wise man: Amazon. Evil. Wil, dude, do you get some kinda kickback if people click on your Amazon links and buy chit? Cause seriously, I clicked and bought and then wondered, but that's what happens after staring at the Photoshop pix on Fark for 4 hours... To which I am now addicted, and it's all your fault. Seriously. Posted by: Thumper at January 30, 2002 08:32 AMWoah, 4 hours of flickery pictures. That must burn! Seriously, though - tanked is the way to go! This site's gotta win something! Let's start the party now! La la la la laa la! La la la la laa la! Undertoad-- Glad to see someone else is a fan of "Parker Lewis." And "World According To Garp," apparently. Posted by: Rob Matsushita at January 30, 2002 09:37 AMHi it's Mark, the guy who made "Foreign Correspondents." First off, thanks Wil for the plug! And yes Amazon is a "necessary evil." I'm glad they are stocking the film but they take 55% off each sale! Ouch! If you want 100% of your money to go to the filmmakers (i.e. me) you can also buy the VHS or DVD for the same price from my Yahoo store - that's http://store.yahoo.com/forcorstore - you'll also get a video faster because at the moment Amazon has back-ordered the videos (they're selling fast!) so it will take them a few days longer to get you one than it will me. Anyway, I will say no more. I'm just thankful people want to buy our film. It really is good and Wil is really great in it, a very different role for him. Posted by: Mark Tapio Kines at January 30, 2002 10:01 AMUndertoad and Rob, chalk me up to be another Parker Lewis fan. That show was superb and nothing like anything I had seen before. I guess Fox's new "Parker Lewis" is "Malcolm in the Middle". Kinda. So who's *really* tanked? Posted by: Courtney at January 30, 2002 10:46 AMYay!!! ForCor sounds like such an awesome movie I have been dying to see it for so long.!!!! I cant wait to buy it...ok now anyone got any money for me to buy it LOL, god being unemployed in NYC sucks ass! I need a job!!! "So who's *really* tanked?" Last night, I *really* was. Not for any reason in particular, except that I was board and listening to music, and well....music's so much better that way.
Cuteness has no age limit. Posted by: Crinkle at January 30, 2002 12:38 PMWil, looks like you won a couple bloggies! Best Merchandise & Best Tagline! CONGRATS! :) Posted by: Ariel at January 30, 2002 01:38 PMCLEAN SWEEP. Congrats Wil. Posted by: gord at January 30, 2002 01:52 PMfirst one to congrat Wil on all 6(?) awards! Congrats! Posted by: Andy at January 30, 2002 02:01 PMKuddos to Wil! (I've been using the word, 'kuddos' for the last week and a half....don't ask me why) Also, lets not forget to give it up, old school, to William Fucking Shatner! Posted by: Lenny at January 30, 2002 02:09 PMcongratumalations! Posted by: s at January 30, 2002 02:16 PMcongrats wil! Posted by: obeygiantsarah at January 30, 2002 02:25 PM*jumps up and down as friend looks at her oddly* YES!!! You won them all!! Yay!!! Congrats, Wil. Posted by: Jessica at January 30, 2002 02:26 PMNewbie here! just saying hi, cool site :) Posted by: cathy at January 30, 2002 02:30 PMCongrats on ALL the bloggies Wil!! Way to go! Posted by: Dani at January 30, 2002 02:30 PMWay to go, Wil! Nice collection of awards you've got there. :) Posted by: Julie at January 30, 2002 02:33 PMcongrats Wil for winning Weblog of the Year!Now you can no longer say you've never won anything! Posted by: robnelle at January 30, 2002 02:45 PMNot to detract from the accomplishment, but I think the ballot box was a bit over stuffed. I wouldn't have been surprised if he won best asian or computer and technology blogs. Anyway congrats all the same. Posted by: todd at January 30, 2002 02:45 PMcongratulations on the bloggie wins, boyo.... and though i still think that wesley was used far too often as a deus ex machina for underdeveloped cliffhanger plots, your re-emergence into pop culture makes me grin. thanks... and keep it up. Posted by: thomas at January 30, 2002 03:29 PMYay, you swept the bloggies. And much, much, much I want to know if you're going to donate the prize money to charity, or just have it changed into singles & head out for one of those titty bars out by LAX.
