Was she originally considered for the "famous names" specials?

Martha said that it was her brand - I wonder if she'll be getting free soap.

I expected "kissing" to be the answer. BTW, just one man's observation, but there seems to be less whistling now than in the past, and men seem to be the bulk of the whistling population.

Nihil obstat®. We'll see what the rest of her stack looks like.

I suspected that she was considered for Famous Names. Just like the Benjamin Franklin who appeared before Famous Names Week.

So far so good.

One of the articles I found about another Famous Name contestant mentioned her being "visibly shaken when she was not chosen" to play before that week ended. But TPTB weren't totally heartless.

As opposed to their attitude toward the BB (whose name I can't recall) who got left at the altar at the long ago WDW tapings.

I've got family candidates for a combination couples-famous names week. They're Donny and Marie. I still can't believe I was the first in the family, including themselves, to recognize that when they got engaged.

That was uasnake2000, left stranded in the WDW green room since Jan. '05.

I wonder if he got built into the new Midway Mania attraction...

She was in Green Room for the Famous Names Week, and then with me for both of my days. So she had to come three times before playing. But I guess that's better than being left stranded. I met her family, they were very sweet. Her daughter had painted "Good Luck" on her nails for her Mom.

BTW, just one man's observation, but there seems to be less whistling now than in the past, and men seem to be the bulk of the whistling population.

Casey gave me a whistle for Christmas a while back. You have to be in the immediate vicinity to hear my natural whistle, and i mean immediate, about six feet. So this way, when I give two short blasts on the whistle she got me, she knows I'm lost and to come find me.

Three blasts would mean I'm in danger, but she hasn't learned that yet. SteelersFan would have to be the one to come find me in that case.

The "quote" method often means "two windows open", as if I'm on a page 2 I can't get back to page 1 where the original transcript is (unless I have a parallel window open, that is, with page 1 up)

but thanks
