I made Steve Martin laugh
My work on your world is done. I am ready to ascend to the stars and bring pop-culture-related joy to the alien masses of distant galaxies.
This came on the heels of what I'm calling "a damned good day," at least digital-wise.
For the past couple of weeks I've been in talks with a SciFi celebrity TO BE NAMED LATER who has shown solid interest in recording Citadel: First Colony for the Audible.com release. That's cool, nay I say awesome, and I'll be making The Big Announcement(TM) when I have more to share.
Also yesterday I got kudos from Seth Godin over yesterday's blog entry. He also said that our ideas weren't quite the same, but I think that's just cover. Don't worry, Seth! We're cool! No lawsuits over intellectual property either way, right? Right?
Yeah, we're cool.
But it was a random comment to Steve Martin that gave me the biggest ego boost of the day. He was saying something about his iPhone syncing slowly. I wrote that my iPhone syncs slowly too, but mostly because it's actually the cardboard display from Best Buy. So it's still faster than the real thing.
Badump-bump.
Now, his response takes a bit of interpretation, but I'm going with "he laughed." Because, dammit, I want this as a win. He wrote:
@kevintumlinson Nice.
Eh? Eh?!? Laughter. I sense it. So do you. DO NOT DENY ME THIS MOMENT.
I even showed up on his website:
Steve Martin totally digs me.
See it? Right there under "Twitter." PROOF.
He's gonna take me to the Oscars, I just know it.
Now if only I could stop automatically typing his name as "Steve Marting." I don't know what that's about. Damned robot fingers have minds of their own.
And now I've made Drew Carey laugh. WHO WILL BE NEXT? It could be you.
Drew Carey digs me. Get on this train while you can.
I only just noticed that Steve Martin and I share the same color scheme. Coincidence? That's for history to decide.
