A local radio station for me (I live in D.C.), Z104, is having a contest tomorrow morning. Basically, if you get a celebrity to call in and do an interview during the Haber and Erin show (5:30-9:30am EST), and they think the celebrity you got to call in is the coolest (judged on how famous, how hard to get an interview with them, and how good their interview was), then you win backstage passes to go to Sting's concert at the Warner Theatre tomorrow night, as well as meet Sting himself.
I asked OSC if he would call in for me.
He said yes!
*Jumps up and down excitedly!*
For those of you who are up early, if you go to http://www.moremusic104.com/ , they have the option of listening to their station live over the web. OSC said he'd probably call between 8 and 9, though he wasn't sure.
I'm going to try and tape the show using my boombox with a tape. Also, Josh/Zevlag is going to try and record the show over the computer tomorrow morning.
I believe his writing has brought more good into this world.
And I hear rumors that he is a good father and husband. Though writing allows one to stay home, I think the disconnect makes it particularly more difficult to come back down to earth and be a good parent. But it is necessary, and the rewards are definately worth it. OSC taught me that.

Noah, that's awesome!! I'm so impresseed. And jealous.
And OSC is DEFINTELY one of my heroes, for many reasons. I admire the magnanimity, the fearlessness, the vision, and his facility with his family.
I remember thinking when I met him and Geoff at the signing in Utah that he must be simply wonderful, because his adult son obviously worshipped the ground he walked on.

I wasn't able to get any signal (I'm listening online at school, and they block installation of programs, i.e. i cant record the internet version), but Josh said he's recording it.

Carmen Elektra wasn't part of the contest. The 104 people themselves had her scheduled to call in.

And they play that South Moon Under commercial (about the bikinis) and stuff like that during normal commercial breaks, because of some legal issue.

PSI, that is a commercial that is played at the beginning of every web connection...
I have the entire thing recorded. About 150MB mp3, I will stop about 9:45... (20 minutes) Not sure if OSC is there or not... Haven't been up to listen to it.

That Irish song just cracked me up to no end.
Also, I'm kind of amazed that Carmen Elektra just said that she lived with her fiance a year before she was married, so they worked out "all the little kinks" before hand.
???????
"All the little kinks"? Her marriage should be exciting.

I just listened to the recap before they announced the winner, but they didn't mention OSC. Perhaps they hadn't heard of him? The radio personalities sound pretty stupid and not exactly well read.
And to have a couple local newspersons be the winning call?
Whatever. I just wish I hadn't listened to crumby music for an hour .

Noah -- just so you know, Scott did call. But the only option he had was to just leave a recording of who he was, etc. So anybody could have called and claimed to be anybody! Anyway, he tried. Probably there are a lot bigger celebs out there anyway who have friends in your area Posts: 780 | Registered: Jul 1999

OSC is so cool. But I've heard that show before (it's at the bottom of my "Isn't there anything on besides commercials" set of radio presets) - I doubt the audience would have appreciated it much. Or that the DJs were capable of having a real interview with him.
