Federation Palace ROUND 4
Bang Zoom, to the MOON!
Jason Cherry with a painting of Tiger Woods and that one girl from season 4 of Degrassi NG.
Ryan Ven Heizun had a breakdown moments after this. Check out his body language.
"Ok ok, you got your picture. When you send this to Chachi, don't include my name."
"You got it, JoAnna Landers."
Oh hi, Chris Bauknecht.
Josh Angliss being inconspicuous. Congratulations.

Federation Palace ROUND 3
And away we go.
You go, my Nubian brother.
Joseph Juhl, you rule. (I'm hoping his last name is pronounced "jule").
Oh crud. I think he's gonna jump (with finess). That's Nate Gilman BTW.
Moments before he brought out the boombox and said, "Now let's get this party started!"
Peek-a-boo! Imma' kill you! (Billy Lata)

Federation Palace ROUND 2
Justin Spackman isn't gay...
...but when he saw Wyatt Johnson wearing the mask, he gave it a consideration.
This is Molly Copeland. Rumor is she took this mask thing a little too far when she said "Chachi Smash!" before destroying her project. I appreciate the dedication, Molly.
Drew Gander. He demanded he get dressed in his "church clothes."
FYI, Phil Stewart lost.

Federation Palace ROUND 1
My pal and fellow RVR counselor is the wild sort. He and his rowdy league of rogues Do the strangest things. Welcome to Federation Palace at Judson University in IL. Let's take a gander...
Oo-La La! Austin Fredrickson is the guy responsible for instilling fear into the guy from that movie Waiting.
If you think Matt Imburgia is a dirty bird for peeping under the stalls, consider the fact that the guy who took this picture is A)not wearing any underwear and B)snapping a picture while doing his dirty, sinful business.
To quote Denny from The Room; "I just like to watch you guys."
And here is Ben Scarbro himself. Talk about flexibility!

PS,
Once again, here is the infamous video.

My sister Kelly and little Ashley (aka, Little Cindy Lou Who) think they're so cute, it makes you wanna throw up.
Amy is Ashley's mom. Don't they look alot alike?
Bizzo and his buddies, Josh and Kyle. There's something wrong with these stooges.
Little Ashley's P.I.C.

Approaching strangers
My roommate asked me to pick up a 9V battery from Rite Aid. Before I left, I decided it would be a good idea to grab a couple of masks and my camera just in case I ran into some potential strangers for the blog.
I walked in, grabbed the battery, a pack of fine-point Sharpies and "browsed" around the store keeping an eye out for people before I headed for the check-out counter. Nope. It's 10 PM on a Tuesday night. People look warn out from the day and even slightly pissed off. Oh, well.
As I approach the check-out counter, a smiling employee says, "how are you, tonight?" Hmmm. She actually seems friendly, yet ready for the day to end. Maybe asking her to pose with the mask would be a fun break from the monotonous day. After I make my purchase, right before I take my receipt, I make my move.
"Hey, I was wondering. I just started a silly blog involving people, friends and strangers alike, taking a picture with a cheesy mask of me. Would you be willing to do it for a few seconds?"
"Mmmm," she said reluctantly. "I don't think so. I'm wearing my uniform, so..."
"No problem, thanks anyway. Have a goodnight."
Ok, so it may (or may not) sound like a pretty regular thing with no need to feel awkward. Whatever. I feel so awkward and rejected. No one is at fault and I totally understand if people don't want to do it. For all I know, I came on a little strong...or maybe even too timid. I have no idea. Nevertheless, asking strangers is NOT easy at all.
The first stranger I ever approached for this was a cop. He was actually very friendly and wished me luck, but felt he needed to decline since he didn't want to besmirch the uniform. Legit. However, the employee at Rite Aid gave me the same reason. Did she not want to besmirch the Rite Aid uniform? Maybe she really has pride in her work and had the same exact motive as the cop. Maybe she was ashamed of her work and didn't want to be associated with it despite having a concealed face. I really don't know.
The point is asking strangers to do this is TOUGH! People who are in speech therapy for their stuttering are given a task requested by the speech pathologist where the stutterer "advertises" his stuttering on the Subway/Metro/public transit to get over his fear. While I'm sure what I'm doing is not nearly as stressful as what the stuttering person goes through with the advertising, it's certainly another form of leaving my comfort zone, and by golly, it's rough.
If you have any suggestions of places, strangers and approaches for the begining, I would love to hear your ideas!

Client #9
Discussion with Sheri Barclay
So I just did short discussion with stuffed cabbage eating DJ, Sheri Barclay. When I called up, I thought I was immediately on the air, but after rambling like the schmuck that I am, she let me know to keep the discussion snappy and to have fun with it. My response: "Oh, I thought I was on the air."
I realize that with my voice and awkwardness, I'm either entertaining to listen to or painful. Being part nerd, I even crapily answered her questions either with other questions or with answers from previous questions.
It was fun and even got an email back from the happenin' DJ herself letting me know it was all good. Sheri, we love you.
Enjoy.
PS,
I want to mention that her unconventional show on CJSR Radio comes on at 11am - 1pm EST on Mon. and Wed. until December 10th. She's a hoot.
