Mister D:
Hey guys and dolls: I’m feeling a little under the weather and it doesn’t look like I’m going to accomplish what a wanted to today, so I thought I’d tell you one thing and ask a couple of things. The questions I may put up in a poll, because I know some people don’t like making comments:
1. We are up to nine people who have been contacted with a couple who have been contacted again. One of those contestants is Jack (thank you). He said (you can look for his exact words in the first Oprah post you come across (2 posts down???) that they are still doing research for the show and they aren’t giving out info because they want to keep that element of surprise….that’s what I remember, but of course, my memories are in the crevices of my mind…not even corners, so I could have interpreted what Jack said completely wrong. (sorry Jack!)
2. Has anybody received any updates from Bette’s official site? This latest contest is on the site and it seems like we should have gotten something, unless for some odd reason I’m blacklisted, but I’m way too charming for that to happen.
3. I’m pretty sure I’m going to lauch a weekly or bi-weekly video cast starting within a week or two. I want to start out really simple…maybe answering BLB reader mail and answering questions on-line. Of course, it won’t be live, but if it becomes successful and fun I may go that route…maybe do interviews, music, etc. But for now simplicity is the key word… so does anybody have any thoughts on this? Would you like this? If you have ideas you’d like me to consider, let me know, too, and maybe I can work on that when I feel more comfortable in front of a camera…..
If so, you can email me using the Contact Link on the sidebar with your questions starting now (I may start up a different email account for this, but I’ll let you know when that changes….just make sure you have the subject line or in the body that this is for the Vidcast…also let me know if I can say your first name or keep anonymous. You can write me even if you depsise what I do and I will keep you anonymous if that’s what you want…
I guess that’s it. For those that have been providing input to me by email, phone, or the comments section…I have thoroughly enjoyed it and glad you are participating….
Over and out for today….
Love, Mister D
I have never gotten any emails from Bette’s website. (Since it’s been updated that is.)
I think a vidcast thing would be cool! 😀
Mister D….just wanted to let you know that I, have been contacted by “oprah’s people” I have been selected as one of Bette’s BIGGEST fans! I just wanted to say thank you for your site! I LOVE IT!!!!!!!! My friends and family are all so excited to see what is in store for all of us! thanks again….mary moe
Spence and Mary Moe….thanks for weighing in. I can’t wait myself to see what’s going to happen. Just keep me updated. Between comments and email I think I’m up to about 14 people now who have been contacted….and Moe thank you for the compliment. If I’m making you happy then I’ve done my job (even though it’s free and I love it!!! LOL) But it’s nice to hear.
Spence, I can just imagine the look on your friend’s faces. I would have enjoyed seeing yours the most, I think…:-)
Suzanne: Thanks for answering the update question. I have never gotten one either. When I found out that Bette ticket giveaway began on January 4th I just couldn’t understand why that wasn’t sent out to subscribers. I don’t think I’ve ever gotten an update from her old Sony page…..about 3 other people emailed me the same answer as yours…
Thanks ladies and germ (sorry Spence!)
Love, Mister D
hey Mr. D!
I am the same as you, I never received any updates from her old site. so anyway, i would LOVE to see the vids. sadly, I am on dial up , Id never get to watch the whole thing, LOL but I think it would be awesome! I may even let you interview ME…since I AM so special a Bette Fan! 😉 lol
That would be fun to interview fans, too. Right now I’ll just take fan mail….somebody better send me some questions, dammit!!! Anyway, that’s a fun idea…I just have to take this slow because I really don’t know what the hell I’m doing.
If it looks like it may take off, maybe I can afford it somehow to set up a special live feed and phone call session…
Sorry I didn’t call over the holidays, I just was in a weird mood….
Love, D
It’s okay, I can be lumped in with the ladies. lol
