He mentions getting ready to attend the awards on his blog. Still haven't watched THE FRINGE yet. Aint that cool how "Dan Draper" emailed me?

Capcom said...

Yes, how did you end up getting that. Did you Twitter Don?

Wayne Allen Sallee said...

Yes, that I did. After our hellish flooding, I had free time waiting for water to go down in the crawlspace. I surprisingly discovered Dan Draper on my friend Sid's Twitter, which I actually have used maybe three times all summer. I mentioned to "Draper" that he looked like Alpert on LOST and, very Draper-like, he replied that he was not aware of the character or television show. I replied that sometimes, in the world of advertising, it could be very hard to separate reality from...reality. (Or something very close to that). To say that he only broke character for the second time just sounds cool, but many of the other characters simply recap scenes from the show, Betty talks about lying down and drinking, Cosgrove talks about his writing. My guess is that there's people at AMC doing Twitter the same way they do blogs, like on MONK or, well, I think that's the only other show I know that has blogs advertised. I just think its funny, characters in 1962 texting and blogging.

I know lost90210 enjoys MAD MEN, if you know her to email her, mention Twitter and she might get a kick out of it. If you yourself sign up, you'll see who I "follow" and vice versa, click on either list and you'll see Draper and a few others. Then just click that name and choose to follow them, they will eventually email you saying they will follow you.

Interesting! :-D

Oh, you know who I mean, the lost woman with the Lost In Alabama blog. But, yea, we can get all kinds of spinoffs, CSI: LOST, SURVIVOR: WHERE?, DESPERATE HOSTILES, I'm sure there are others. But I think you know the blogger in question, I can't check without losing this screen and Comcast is still going in and out. Water damage may have affected the 1950s wiring in the house.

Oh, keep fiorgetting to say, nice avatar. Matches my birthday photo from the Storytellers Unplugged post last month.

Heheh, funny titles.

Tx, that's me somewhere in Indianapolis or Rantoul in the late '50s. You mean Li'l Waynie and Li'l Jannie? :o)

Anyway, I'm using that one for now cuz I kind of feel like I'm having to start all over again after retirement (and treatment). Back to square-one in many ways. :-p Oh well, "praise the Lord and pass the ammo".
