GOT CONSOLE

I now have a 3.5 star rating at DXInOne and have registered my console.

The clouds have parted, the sun is shining, and Yuki Kajiura chorals ring through the air.

This is the first day of the rest of my life.

And it will be a rich one.

DXPTSF

There is so much to do with the new
DXInOne system now online. I'm still doing clean-up in the DXPowerTeam Support Forums (known as DXPTSF to its friends :), but now there's all this new stuff to take care of. Every time I do a process (set up e-services, InX, OutX, etc.) I try and create a sticky post in the forums because if I'm working out how to do it, other people probably are too (I'm egotistical that way ;), and a post might help them out.

Happy Days.

DXINONE

The new DXInOne system is now online.

w00+!

Need to upload ID docs and register a bank account so I can get up my star rating to qualify for a console. I've already got the $1000 TDV. Like got it times 7 ;)

NO REGRETS

              I got tix ^_^

HOPE

From Joss Whedon himself to the Browncoats:
"CRUSHING DISAPPOINTMENT...

...is not in store! Good things are coming... to a theater (possibly) near you!

It's Joss, your roving reporter, with another ZOWIE! exclusive(!) hot off the presses! Browncoats Bring Boffo B.O.! Vegas Vibe Very Vivacious! You heard it first here, true believers...

Okay, first of all, being that guy is exhausting. So no more roving and on to the meat of the thing. I just saw the whole cast today (which is in itself a wonderful and rare thing) and we all compared notes on the screenings, the general feeling being: damn. As in, Big Damn. You guys were SO sweet. We all thought it was a grand time. More (or at least just as) importantly, the Uni Brass thought it worked out great too, so... wait for it... there's gonna be more.

You might have heard rumors, but I'm here to confirm. On thursday the 26th the studio is doing another round of hit-and-run screenings, and this time it's not ten cities -- it's twenty. It's another vote of confidence from the studio and another chance for us to say "thanks" to you guys for keeping this all rolling. And most importantly, another chance to run that videotape of me before the movie, looking so tragically sexy.

"Wait a minute! What cities!?!?! Hey, %#$@face, stop talking about how sexy you are (although you are confessedly quite the dish) and give us the info!" Well, I don't actually know. I think we'll be repeating in the cities we've hit and adding 10 new ones. I expect can'tstopthesignal will have the info some time tomorrow, and let the manager-threatening begin! (Or, you know, the ticket buying.) Hopefully one of those cities will be near you, and won't be one where the film breaks and has to start again (heh heh... professional showbusiness... ). I don't know if any of the peeps is gonna be able to come out this time, but if they can they will, and I know Jewel's going somewhere 'cause she was working last time.

That's it! Except to add that Summer and I were pretty overwhelmed last Thurs, and I got the impression everyone else was too. Of course everyone else didn't have to put up with Summer's constant whispering of "I SAVED this film, Hackboy!" or her "surefire" system of winning at craps that had me down six large come the dawn... That girl. Just trouble.

Enough with this post. You guys are beyond swell. Let the party continue.

-j."

ps. yes, it really is about 6 am. I'm trying to get more stuff done in my allotted 24 hours which means starting them earlier than usual. Way earlier.

REGRETS

I usually have few regrets. If something doesn't work out, something else comes along.

Nathan Fillion and Ron Glass attended the Austin Serenity screening last week.

And Universal had a Q&A session.

And there were autographs on a Serenity mini-poster.

And I regretted not going.

IMMORTALITY

Followed up on a link I saw on the DXPowerTeam Support Forums and found Alex Chiu's Eternal Life Rings. He's got quite the site. What caught me attention was the marketing aspect of it. 80 unique clicks and you get a set of rings for free. Or, they can be purchased for less than $30. Or, you can make your own from his online instructions.

Neat way to spread the life, as it were.

So, there you go. Today's Lunch Link.

If I get a pair of Eternal Life Rings, I'll let you know how it turns out. ^_^
