I do. :o

All the videos I took of my kids when they were little are on VHS (only thing available then :lol: ), so I've kept a VHS machine for occasional playback for family, etc...Some day I'll transfer them all to DVD, but you know how that goes... :mrgreen:

God luck at the Survivor Island casting call.... :shock: ;)

While I'm really not a fan of "survivor" type shows, I am curious as to how it went for you guys. Post up, all you who tried out!

sorry i never posted up an update.

i did TERRIBLE. i froze. frogeye and i went friday night and camped out. we were surprised that there werent more people. we got a few hours sleep but alot of folks were up all night and there was one crazy cheerleader chick that kept walking up and down the line yelling and trying to get everyone excited.......we just wanted to run over her with our trucks. sheeesh
of course chris had his ideas all down on paper for his taping...organized, perfect. i know he did great. (but they havent called him yet i dont think?)

i didnt want to go in rehearsed cause i knew if i wrote things down i'd freeze and not say them anyways....didnt much matter....cause i froze and didnt say much. or at least that i can remember.

the thing that sucks about the "casting calls" is that...........you go in, stand in front of the camera, get a count down then have to just TALK AND SELL YOURSELF for 2 minutes. they tell you to be creative but.........

so i'm not done with this survivor show. the next round or application process...i'll make my own video and send it in myself. if i do this then i can tape up to 3 minutes (instead of 2)...then i can edit it, make it my own....and really kick some as5.

it was a great experience and i'm glad i did it...but i'll do it differantly next time.
