Documentary Idea - throwing this out there
Andymation
I have had an idea for a very long time, and I am throwing it out
there to all of you to see what you think. See if anyone else would
want to jump on board and get something going. (Despite the fact that
this board has waned in activity, I'm sure there are still lots of you
out there who get these emails.)
I am a film maker myself. WoSaT was one of my biggest inspirations.
For a long time I have wanted to do a documentary about Mike Jittlov.
This film would be much more than simply a tribute.
This would be a chance to really get to know Mike and tell his story,
as a film maker and as a person.
I have a bunch of other ideas, but I need to get my thoughts
organized, as this idea has been on the back burner of my mind for too
long.
I have all the equipment I need. The issue is time and money. Right
now I can't afford a plane ticket.
But if Mike was open to the idea, I'm sure we could figure out how to
do it.
At any rate I wanted to get a discussion going will all of you.
What do you guys think?

It stinks deeply on many levels.

No, but if you wanted to jump overboard, I wouldn't try to talk you
out of it.

This isn't "email", Einstein. It's Usenet. Learn the difference or
never come back here again.

Uh, Bozo, the film that you claim so "inspired" you is almost entirely
and profoundly already autobiographical. I don't think Mike could have
opened up more of his guts or personal feelings any more vividly.
Are you sure you didn't accidentally rent "The Wizard" starring Fred
Savage and only *thought* you've seen TWOSAT?
> I have a bunch of other ideas,
Wow. I'd sure love to hear what else you've managed to grunt out of
that brain of yours... NOT.

What's on the front burners of your mind?

Thank Gawd.

You forgot to post your phone number. How are Mike and all us eager
investors supposed to get back to you to sign up for your idea, Don
Simpson?

Your wish is granted.

You're a mindless buffoon.

last of it's kind of the wild: a living breathing Usenet Troll.

Troll, please consider the 15 minutes you wasted responding to this
post, and go do something useful with your time.
I will not respond to this again, so please don't bother continuing
the conversation.

Just to be crystal clear to everyone, I was NOT asking for money.

If this goofball had actually bothered to read the ng before posting, he
might not have been flamed. Facts is facts.

Why are you asking us instead of Mike?
Andymation
Because I wanted to see if anyone else had similar interest.
Projects like this can be more successful and worthwhile if you
collaborate.
2 minds are better than one.
Okay flamers, here's your chance!
Ready... I'll say it again
2 minds are better than one.
And now you respond with...
"Zero minds are better than yours!"
OOhhhhh slam
So yeah, it was just an idea and I wanted to see what other people
thought before talking to Mike.
And in case anyone cares, a couple of my acquaintances talked to Mike
about doing a documentary with him a few years ago, and he was
completely into the idea.
So obviously if Mike likes the idea, I must not be too much of a
"Cecile B. DeMoron."
My apologies if my attitude offends anyone. I regret posting to this
group in the first place.

Oh, are you put out? Quitcher bitchin' crybaby, you started out sounding
like a moron....THAT's why you got treated as one.

Really? Are you SURE? If this is true, why didn't you mention it before?
Waiting until you've had your ass handed to you to cough up a tiny bit of
info isn't the right approach.

You don't appear to be able to grasp the things that irritated people here,
and you clearly don't do logic. If you'd bothered to learn something about
usenet before posting on it, you might have escaped the flames. You say
"acquaintances" approached Mike about a documentary....get this - YEARS ago.
Nothing has come out of that (assuming it happened) that we've heard here,
you know. This kinda makes you look like a grandstander.

Son, I think it isn't your attitude, but the fact that you came bumbling in,
making it obvious that you're a complete tyro on usenet...with grand ideas.
Look at yourself a bit, make adjustments, and don't take flames seriously.
