 Re: I Got a Phone Call From Sean Salsbury.
Scott Vasquez wrote: At noon today, I got a phone call from Sean Salsbury. I was having an interview with him about my third place ranking, and ask me some questions (like how often do you visit the site, when you discovered the site, and so on). I know, despite the strict nature his forums has, he is actually a nice and cool person in real life. He is posting some tibits from the interview on the site for the End of the Year article in the derby section. It was great to talk to him in person. It was fun.
*pouts* Well I never got a call for him. Must be because I'm not Box Office Prediction Divinity. :wink: That's okay, I am all about living vicariously through your interview and article experience. I guess I will just have to grill with with questions about the questions and then you need to post the link to the article asap here so we can all check it out. I hope you get a ton of coverage, and not just one sentence, I'm very picky about how people I vitually know get treated. Only the best allowed. Keep us updated on when to expect the material as well okay Scott? Congrats!

To answer all your questions, this was basically a Question Answer type of interview. I did not mention a word about the falling of the forums (because not only is that rude, but it is also completely off topic). He even mentioned that Brandon was amazed on how close I came to him.
This is how it went.
First he asked me how I discoverd Box Office Mojo, What Social Status (occupation, age, city, and so on), What movies and movie stars I admired (yes, I mentioned Kirsten Dunst). And the apology that he never sent that Enternal Sunshine Sweater (he still has it and said he will send to me soon). He ended it by congradulating me on getting third place, and I told my secret of predicting to him (even he seem amazed on my predicting style and that I work at the movie theater, by saying that it is an advantage), and he said he talked to Gemini, and he said the same thing. This interview (phone call) took about 15 minutes.

Scott you really have done so well for yourself. They are no slouches, and you really outdid yourself in getting 3rd place, I am seriously in shock, please make sure you let me know when the article gets posted.

Sean also interviewed me yesterday and I have to agree with Scott: he really seems to be a cool person! If you have a request or an advice, he is all ears... (yes, I'm NOT joking)!

No offense to anyone, but there's probably less then eight people that I've ever met on BOM or WOKJ that I'd pick up if I knew they were calling... and probably only about three that I'd actually want to talk to. I just want to keep my life inside these forums in here, and my life outside the forums out.

To each his own, though to meet 8 people that you would consider talking too, people that you would never had met without the internet, people who you could grow to be good friends with regardless of the vast distance and space between you. That is something.

Very smart... There's nothing wrong with that to.. I've spoken to 1 person on this site and that is Appy and do so on a semi-regular basis, like, well, right now in about 1 minute if she's there.. :wink:

zach and timothy have a slight idea what my voice sounds like through moi voice-mail message on the phone, but, I've never talked to 'em. I didn't have the guts...
I'll get to it, eventually. Maybe tomorrow. Maybe tomorrow...in a year.
