I've not submitted it anywhere yet. To be honest, I wouldn't know where to start

BTW when the Times ran a FWFR competition a while Back did they reference the site? ( Can't remember exactly when )



That's the first I've heard of it. I know they run (or ran) a weekly competition and made no mention (that I could find), but I'm kind of used to it by now.

P.S. We got a mention of Sky's movie quiz programme Popcorn this week. We were the ad break quiz "What film is 'Wolf in Streep's clothing.'?" (Yukon's 'Devil Wears Prada' review) and we got a 'With thanks to fwfr.com' on the end credits (which no-one watches as evidenced by the lack of change in site hits around that time). Still, it was a new experience for me

There seems to be a point to this. I just got a letter from CBC's Free Style program indicating that they used several of the year's top FWFR's on Friday's show.

Wow, I'm famous in England?

This is almost as good as the time I was interviewed by BBC Radio for a story about my university journalism professor who got in hot water for saying that he supports adults having sex with 10 year olds. Then it was revealed he was a male prostitue. (Believe it or not, I'm not making that up.)

P.S. Your PR skills are great Rockgolf!

No sure if Downtown's comment is in reference to Yukon's praise of my amateur PR skills or in reference to Yukon's professor. I remember that story. The guy taught at Ryerson, if I recall, and was well over 60! Prostitution is one area where I think manditory retirement should definitely remain in effect.

It was in reference to Yukon discovering that he's famous.
