Diser's for CMO!

[kennythepirate]

Hello everyone from your friendly neighborhood pirate!
Concert was great. For those wondering who was there, Mandisa (phenomenal voice & not American Idol?), Mercy Me, Skillet, Barlow Girl, Newsong and a bicycle team.

Back to the top 20 discusssion:
Inquiring minds want to know about my knowing knowledge of the unknown knowns. Well the unknown knowns were first unknown unknowns, later becoming the known unknowns and finally ending up as the known knowns! Hope that cleared it up for you.
A good dream job reporter cannot reveal his sources!

THE SPONSORS are safely secured in the brig and have been cut to half rations and double scourgings daily. They have not agreed to my terms and may forever become known as "The Other Others," if my FREE TRIP isn't forth coming. (Perhaps they are angry because I supported The Donald?) Don't fret though, the pirate has a plan!

BTW, have you noticed that NO ONE has revealed they are finalists. The 10 should be receiving their packages today. If you don't get one, you aren't a finalist. They will be locked in a sound proof booth while listening to Captain & Tenille's "Muskrat Love", Barry Manillow's "Mandy" and Air Supply's "All out of love" until tomorrow night at midnight. At which time they'll each be asked to participate in a round of "Let's Make a Deal!" followed by "Slime Time Live" and ending in a 3 week battle of "Family Feud." (Can I phone a friend, please!)
REMEMBER: A good dream job reporter cannot reveal his sources!

The best way to discover who IS the 10, is for those who AREN'T receiving packages to come forward. Process of elimination...or is that processed cheese spread? hmmm. Let's stick it to the MAN for trying to keep secrets!!!

Hello and welcome to "Who is the CMO." My name is KTP and I'll be your chief pirate today. We'll begin boarding in a few minutes, but first I'd like to acquaint you with some important voting information. When the doors to your ship open, please take a seat. Store all carry on items in the Captain's quarters this includes: doctrines, references, plugs and of course, these little beauties (shot of spray cheese.) Next fasten yourself firmly into the shackles provided. If smaller pirates don't measure up to the height indicator in the brig, put the shackles throught the center strap before locking firmly. (Nice work pal!) Soon you'll be on the high seas. So, if you or your little pirates have a fear of sailing or of being eaten by large sharks or man-eating squid, you might want to wait for your party at the arrival pier.

Okay, let's review
X Rumsfeld doctrine
X Lost references
X Donald for CMO plug
X Game show references
X Cheesy 70s/80's music
X Reporter references
X Sponsor hostage message
X Keep your hands and arms inside at all times
X Spray cheese (hey wait that's mine, you can't have that!)

What else? Oh yeah, have a nice voyage!

Okay, looks like we're set for a backwards reveal of the finalists! THE SPONSORS haven't outsmarted the pirate! Start the countdown.

Hmm.. still no nominations for "sideways inaudible lady". (or did I miss it?).

I hate to do this... but I'm going to have to make some phone calls today... now where did I put Sean Penn's number?

I still have best Actor in a reality series I could throw her into!

Hi Ho, Hi Ho, it's off to work I go! See you all 52 pages later tonight!

 

[luvsTink]

Kenny..you rock! Of course, we will have to wait until 3:00 pm to be sure, since that is the deadline for FedEx deliveries....don't you think? And what about the poor finalists that actually have to keep a job? They night not find out until they get home!

On the count of three I want all top 20 folks to proclaim themselves ill and go directly home...ok?
1
2

3!
(the fake coughs are echoing through the land!)

Ladies and Gentlemen. In order to avoid the ceremony being interrupted by Sean Penn, we would like to make a special presentation.

Please welcome Paul Giamatti and Thomas Haden Church.

[applause... they enter... Thomas is in pajamas]

PAUL: Thank you very much.

THC: Paul, what are we doing here? I was sleeping, and suddenly I am here on stage with you.

PAUL: It is my understanding that we are presenting an award.

THC: Ok... but why us?

PAUL: Let's just present it and you can get back to bed and I can get back to my wine tasting.

THC: Fine. The Mickey for Outstanding Achievement in Video Rotation goes to:

PAUL: I've always been a fan of the risky independent film that makes good. So, congratulations on this award!

THC: I still don't get why they picked us.

PAUL: It will come to you.

[applause]

 

[Justin M]

As always - I miss out on pages and pages of laughs! Yikes. For the record though, I went to dinner with some friends straight after work yesterday and had tickets to see "The Drousy Chaperone" here in Pittsburgh. I don't know how many musical theater fans we have here on this thread - but I know a bunch came forward when I talked about seeing "The Lion King" a couple of weeks ago. Anyway - if you have an appreciation for musical theater, enjoy comedy, and can understand clever satire - "The Drousy Chaperone" was a wonderful show! It almost made up for all the laughs I seem to have missed here last night!


As for the award I'm supposed to be presenting this weekend - The Adventurosity Award - I'll get my crack research team on the job today and have some nominees for you later on!

Hahahahahaha... that was perfect! It was like one of those "wait for it, wait for it, wait for it" and bring on the funny.

FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION HAUNTEDMANSIONFANin: His CMO resume filled with daring thrills, tricky camera work, crazy family members, on-ride footage, a replica of the monorail.... what more could you ask for out of "Adventuriosity"?

I really should be taking out full page ads in Vanity Fair or something.

To quote.....well......YOU: I DON'T BUY IT!!!!

How do you "claim" to not be in contact with the "sponsors" and know so darn much???!!!

Brady McDonald is the only "source" you can have if you source isn't the "sponsor."

And WHY would they be telling HIM so very much anyway?

And, as far as you clearing up the known unknown, you have left us all still very much unknowing!!!

The info regarding the packages....I don't think you would have revealed that if you didn't KNOW it to be true. That would just be cruel!

I respect that you are not revealing you sources, that makes me trust you even more.....but the whole 'no sponsor' connection and knowing what you know about all of the unknown is highly suspect!

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm............................................Minister, right? Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...................I am going to believe you! But THAT means your source must be BRADY??? Hey, maybe YOU are Brady??!!

Glad you had a great time yesterday!!!

 

[AnnDisneyFan]

Now I KNOW I am delusional!!!

I just went to the door --- package delivery.

I look at the label --- Greater Media Inc. Promotion Syndication.

My stomach flips!

MY PACKAGE!! KENNY WAS RIGHT!!

It WAS an oversight --- not only am I Top 20 but I skipped right to Top 10!!!

(all this happening in nanoseconds as I rip open my "package" of Disney waivers, etc.)

Nope, sunken feeling, throw up a little in my mouth.

It is just a consolation prize (Monopoly game) from the local radio station rep who bagged on me for the family game day and cancelled it last minute (grand prize trip to Disney World).

Geez, thanks. Gonna go eat a Big Mac now.
Oh, wait, Friday during Lent, must sacrifice, how about pizza?

Hope you all get that flippy feeling in stomach today and receive your "package."

Not necessarily just Brady. If you will recall my post after my phone interview a few weeks ago, Kenny really made an IMPRESSION on [Insert Sponsors] during last years' contest. His name even came up in said interview. I'm sure Kenny has more sources tied up in the brig...

I must have missed that story. What happened?

I agree, and darn it, he is quite likeable as well!

So the whole "sponsor" "insert name here" "mustn't give credit till they cough up a trip" is bogus??

Is KENNY THE PIRATE the brains behind it all?

Think back to your interview.....then watch his video......you are in broadcasting........did the voices sound similar??

Have you received a "package" yet Trippy?

Recent and past history does reveal that they apparently like the process of elimination thing -- backwards elimination -- as Kenny stated (and then mentioned how the "sponsors" haven't outsmarted him)!!

Again, hmmmmmmmm.............

I must have missed that story. What happened?

After I was clearly NOT selected for top 20, I had a friend call me and suggested I enter yet another contest.

This was from 107.9 The Link in Charlotte. 32 families (4 -- 2 adults, 2 children 6-12 years old) were to compete tomorrow with the grand prize being a trip to Disney World.

I immediately signed us up and we were "selected" to be one of the 32 families. I got the games to practice (yatzee, monopoly, checkers, jenga and outburst jr.) and we had marathon sessions --- Mommy, MORE GAMES??!!, please, we KNOW our strategies......

I got the call this week that it was cancelled and the promotions guy knew I would be bummed. He kept saying that I had a story (CMO entry -- last trip to Disney was due to a 60 lb weight loss bla bla bla).

Hence, the consolation prize "package" that came suspiciously right after I read Kenny's post. I really DID have my stomach flip, sad to say!!!

On to the next opportunity to get back to Disney.....thanks for asking though Trippy.....I really DO belong there!!! I won't give up!!!

No, it wasn't Kenny who interviewed me... It was Heath (aside: What up Heath? I know your lurking!!!! ) And I wouldn't say the [sponsor] thing is bogus. He was just having a little creative fun. Inquiring minds want to know. Kenny, like the rest of us, wants to know the identities of the Top 10... It's human nature.

Human nature, sure, but he KNOWS stuff, don't you think? More than the average pirate I mean.

Do you think any activity here would help or hurt a finalist?? Especially since the sponsors are apparently lurking?

p.s. you are in radio, did the station really have a trip to Disney? And why would they cancel a promoted event like that......I kept getting Mickey signals that we were going to win (well, I felt that too for the CMO and look how far THAT got me!)

Wait! They cancelled the entire promotion? That's strange. They must not have gone through legal before going on the air with it. The Link used to be our sister station but was recently sold. Was that a Bob & Sheri contest?

 

[Snow~White]

My stomach flips!

MY PACKAGE!! KENNY WAS RIGHT!!

So, so sorry to break in at this point, but I have SO much nervous energy and I just have nowhere to put it!

I was looking out the window just a few minutes ago and saw the Fed-Ex truck at my neighbors! I ran to the front door, opened it--just in time to see the truck pull in front of our house! I almost couldn't contain myself. The Fed-Ex guy brought the package to me, NO return address. I rip it open...an auto part.

Not even a fun game. Boo.

Kenny (who is apparently in cahoots with the sponsors), any way the sponsors favor DHL?

Signed,
Dana's wife (who has read every page of this thread, but only now has made her first post)

Matt and Ramona were going to host I believe.....and they had done this contest a couple of years ago and it was successful (says Brad the promo guy).

Brad (promotions) could not have been nicer, but still, it was hard to hear. Kindof like losing without getting the chance to play.

The odds were better with this contest though 1/32!

I did ask Brad if he could just give us the trip --- no luck!

Hmm.. still no nominations for "sideways inaudible lady". (or did I miss it?).

I hate to do this... but I'm going to have to make some phone calls today... now where did I put Sean Penn's number?

Sorry, FTC, but I thought that one was just sad...not funny...But I'll note that she got one vote for you!

EDIT -- Oh, I see she already won a Mickey Award! OK, so I'm taking that one vote away now...
