Five more transcripts added today. The season email
lists (read the 21st's update) seem to be working
out good. Do you realize there's now over 500 skits
transcribed? Great job, guys! I wish I could do more
to thank everyone who's been nice enough to transcribe
things. It's not much, but here's something new I'm
going to try. On the contributors
page, everyone's credited, but there's no distinction
between those who have transcribed one skit and those
who've transcribed many. So, I created little icons
designating 10s of skits transcribed. Make it to ten,
you get an icon, and get set apart with the others
who've achieved icons. I don't know...It's something.
A little more credit, perhaps. The thing is, I can't
keep a tally of what everyone's done. So, when you
reach 10, or 20, etc. you need to drop me an email
(and list for me the ones you did...not that I don't
trust you...)

New Video clip and five new transcripts. And something
to say: Annually, Harry Doupe (writer/comedian, and
friend of Dave Foley's) does a charity auction to
Benefit the Langley Fine Arts School in Fort Langley,
B.C. This year, it's being held Tuesday, Sept. 26th
(tomorrow!) in the back room at Wayne Gretzky's Restaurant,
8 p.m. and admission is free.
If
you're near Toronto and can get yourself there, this
is what you'll see on the block. You'll see two of
Dave's Gemini Awards (1989 for Writing and 1993 for
Best Comedy Performance)! You'll also see a 20" x
24" mounted picture, signed. (The picture is the Kids
with guns.) You'll also see a sculpture from the series
set, on which the Kids did all their monologues. It's
a large grey cupid playing a horn (see picture below).
You'll also see items from The Tragically Hip, The
Odds, The Guess Who, Mike Myers, Alanis Morissette,
Wayne Gretzky, Curtis Joseph and others. Winners will
also receive little extras such as programs, hats,
and passes.

The Cupid is Behind Bruce's shoulder
Now,
if you can't be there, Harry Doupe will take pre-bids
by email at bigcity5@hotmail.com.
He'll also answer any questions you have about the
items. He also has Dave's other two Gemini Awards.
They're not in as good of shape, but he would make
them available.

Ten more transcripts and a little help to those who
are nice enough to want to do some transcribing. I
used to say: ask if you want to check on whether a
transcript has been transcribed. Now I say: Before
you sit down to transcribe, write to the season the
skit is in: one@kithfan.org,
two@kithfan.org,
three@kithfan.org,
four@kithfan.org,
and/or five@kithfan.org.
(No need for a subject, or message in the email. The
mail doesn't go to a person.) You'll get an automated
reply with a list of skits not yet transcribed, those
"claimed," and those transcribed but not
yet on the site. Then, you can either send in a transcript
on a list, or "claim" some of your own,
if you aren't sending right away. As always, send
transcripts to transcripts@kithfan.org.
Sounds like a lot of emails, but I think they're easy
to remember ;o)

Okay,
I forgot to update the clip when I said I would. And
I couldn't get connected to upload anything on Thursday.
But, new week, new stuff. First, a new "feature"
to the site: "If You Like
Kids in the Hall, You Might Also Like" (Or,
the YMAL. I'm not good picking titles...or acronyms.)
Read more about this on the YMAL page. Also
new: 3 new wallpapers, 5 new transcripts, and new
video and song clips. (The song is video, too.) And,
as a test to see if there'd be interest in holding
a chat every week for fans of the week's YMAL, there
will be a Barenaked Ladies Palace
chat on Friday, 10:30pm eastern.

| Ten
new transcripts today! Including the last of the Pit
of Ultimate Darkness sketches. All of them are now transcribed.
(With a bit less celebration - the Gunfighter sketches
are all transcribed now too.) A new "character"
was added to Bruce's
character page - the Storyteller (This may not be
a "character," but now there will be a place
to list all the 30 Second Story sketches.) Tommorow
I'll change the real video clip and maybe make a few
corrections throughout the site. |
