Small update, I am temporarily removing my hat from the ring.

I have jury duty this week and likely will not make it to my audition tomorrow. I signed up for another audition on the 16th in case I need a backup date.

Keep any relevant digits crossed on my behalf, although the wheels of justice turn slowly and therefore will likely not let me out in time to get to NY by 5:45.

Were you asked to wave good-bye to the camera at the end of your interview? We were, and I was just wondering if that is something that is asked of everyone. Thank-you.

As long as they didn't kick you in the seat of the pants and slam the door behind you, I think you're ok.
I believe in the usefulness of useless information.

Waving good-bye? That's not something Hot Seaters do on the show. Remembering which exit to walk out of, yeah, that they need to know!

They wave hello sometimes. Or maybe TPTB is planning the return of the Ring of Fire as part of the upcoming "excitement".

There have been a few hotseaters who might not have used their entire hand to wave good-bye. Kati Knudsen comes to mind. Waving hello is safer.
I just ordered chicken and an egg from Amazon. I'll let you know.

The crew must have had a very good lunch on May 15th!

Both the lady before me and I were asked to say good-bye to the camera. I think it's just a way to end the taped interview on a casual note.
