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

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. |
