JG caught me completely off guard, but suspect my answer wouldn't have changed. Diane Lane is top drawer, though.

LOL

This device, once invented, would make its inventor millions. Just ask Guglielmo Marconi.

Wanye, I tried contacting you in the past regarding and ad to place on Oilers Nation. Never received a reply.

We re-launced http://www.oilogosphere.com/ and was hoping to attract new fans. Check your junk mail or at least tell me to bug off if you already saw my email ;)

OMG. The podcast is available as well! Do I listen now or on the Monday morning bus ride (thus negating the doldrums associated with the return to reality)??

As as sales person, this is somewhat galling. WHAT? A sales lead and no one calls back? NO GLENGARRY LEADS for Wanye.

Those leads are for closers.

Scarlett Johansson? No, that's Skip Krake.

And a 'well done and thanks' on the quick posting - on behalf of those of us unable to get the right radio waves directly from Edmonton

I still believe this is a fake post. There is no way the Nation Radio podcast(s) would be posted two and a half hours after the show ended.

I like to think that each day of OilersNation ends when the last person reads the site and then passes out.

Never has this been documented more clearly.
