I'm sending this DVD to the local TV stations to get their attention. Think it'll work?

Oct 22, 2008 03:15 pm YOU CAN WORK A TOASTER! Man your hired! When can you start?
Oct 22, 2008 03:19 pm I have watched it a few times, man, thats great...makes me think about a possible next crack at getting on Survivor.
Oct 22, 2008 06:16 pm Its so fecking weird to be putting a face to the name.
Cool vid though.
Oct 22, 2008 06:49 pm Herb, I'm shooting it over to my gmail so I can watch it on the other box. My poor old surfbox is finally surrendering to its own slowness. Even with a fst video card it can't run streaming video for crap anymore.
If I through a party for its nearing retirement will anyone send flowers for its funeral?
Actually, now that I think about it, maybe I'll turn up the clock on it and see how fast I can make this old PIII 667 Coppermine go. I wonder how much smoke it will generate? Maybe I better do it in the garage.
Anyway Herb, I'll watch it in a little bit.
Oct 22, 2008 09:11 pm Great video and so freakin' funny! I wouldn't limit myself sending it to local stations. Send it to all the major stations in GA. Think big, Herb, think Atlanta! :-)
Oct 23, 2008 08:57 am Thanks, but you couldn't get me to work in a major metro if you held a .357 to my crotch. The traffic in Atlanta would destroy what little is left of my marvelously affable personality :-) Besides, that's a four hour commute!
Survivor, dB?
Oct 23, 2008 09:04 am I've applied like 4 or 5 times, talked to them on the phone once, never got further than that.
Oct 23, 2008 01:01 pm Yeah Herb, I see your point traffic and commute wise. No, we don't want anything to happen that might ruin your amiable personality!
I was under the impression that you could do most of that work from home. Guess I'm wrong.
Oct 23, 2008 01:22 pm Voice work, from home for sure. Sliding thingies and toaster ovens via remote, not so much :-D
Oct 23, 2008 01:26 pm What? You don't have your toaster or sliding thingies connected via cat5?
Oh, and I thought you where a professional.
Alright dB. You opened the door on this. Where is your submission tape for Survivor? Everyone that wants to be one that show has one.
Oct 23, 2008 01:28 pm I have a few, my last one was a Flash movie, I showed it here quite a while ago, but don't have it anymore (honestly). It was a Flash movie that was a spoof on Monty Python animations...where just my mouth moved and eyes changed, I even had a big foot squash me at the end...
I sent it off, then it hit me that the initial people watching it probably had a 50% chance, at best, of even getting what it was...
Oct 23, 2008 01:33 pm Yeah, really. A bunch of 22 year old executives sitting around to watch it.
You can just see their heads tipping to one side, as they utter "I don't get it."
Oct 23, 2008 01:36 pm Yeah, exactly...Herb's video does bring a good idea to mind if I try again though...actually, it makes me want to try again.

I know. I toyed with the thought of putting a "tongue-in-cheek" disclaimer in the notes I sent with the DVD, in case the person(s) viewing it were incapable of understanding broad spoof. Then I reckoned that if whomever watches it can't grasp that, I don't want to work there anyway.
It's kind of sad that I felt a need for even a fleeting consideration of that.
Oct 23, 2008 05:01 pm Herb, nicely done indeed. It got me chuckling instantly. The plug in and un-plug was great. There is a pun in there somewhere I think.
I doubt I have the flash but I'll look and see later after Ray's guitar lesson. I'm pretty sure I don't have it saved though.
Oct 23, 2008 06:58 pm If dB were on Survivor, it should be a pay-per-view event. I'd shell out the price of a Pro membership for that. Even more if he were on the island with a bunch of liberals.
Oct 23, 2008 07:02 pm I can handle, snakes, bugs, eating weird stuff, physical challenges, but liberals, come on, give a guy a chance...
Well, unless their frail little vegans, than at least I could probably just beat 'em up.
Oct 23, 2008 07:23 pm Eh, just pull them behind the camera where the catering truck is. The director would never allow that shot.
Oct 23, 2008 10:24 pm Oh relax. It's not like Survivor is a documentary. I'll set my DVR for it though.
Oct 23, 2008 10:54 pm That is just tits! I want one! I mean of you; doing a voice over on My wife and I attacking the E-Ville paper target at the range or something. To me that shows a hell of a lot more creativity than; (poor computerized speach recognization tone) Seeking job that is chalanging and...... ZZzzzzzzz
Vote for Herb! Whatever he wants! Now!
Oct 23, 2008 10:57 pm Email me Walt. We can make that happen. Really.
Oct 24, 2008 04:30 pm Kudos, man. Not for the video, but for your ability to manipulate 'sliding thingies.'
Wicked skills.
Oct 24, 2008 06:02 pm $30/hr, TC. Depending on the scale, of course.
Dec 05, 2008 11:41 pm Did I hear you snickering at the end there?
Nice baby hanger by the way.
OK, I need to settle down and stop chuckling now.
Dec 08, 2008 04:50 am Man that **** was hilarious. Especially "Hanger Hangar".
Dec 08, 2008 08:02 am I had a fleeting idea to put a noose in there somewhere, then decided eh..maybe not.
Dec 08, 2008 01:09 pm Hehehehe good ones Herb.
Dec 08, 2008 03:10 pm I gotta play this for Tuna when he gets home. Ray thought it was funny as well.
