Holy Crap, indeed!
You know, I've still got my cell phone on, if by any chance they're still working late and haven't filled the August 4 show.

And here I almost didn't bother to check back in today! That's great news, TBone!!!
I know that I said I was only available for the first week of tapings, but if you want me I'll see if I can't switch weeks off at work. I've not got any plans anyway, and they aren't paying me for the time, so I don't know what difference it would make. Just let me know, lots of other great people to assist you around here too so you'll be well supported with or without me.
This is such wonderful news. I'm very excited for you!

Holy crap and then some!
How frickin great is that??
WOW!
Did they say, per chance, why they called more than an hour outside the call window?
Gawd this is great!

Good for you, Tbone! It's nice to see somebody who always has such positive energy get rewarded!
And really, wasn't it that much sweeter to get The Call after you'd already chalked it up and made peace and moved on?
What do you mean no? Ha!

Nope. I made a little joke about being a bit taken aback after having abandoned hope and she laughed, but I didn't press it. It occurfed to me that maybe someone who had gotten the call couldn't meet eligibility requirements or had to back out, and I was next on the list.
Or maybe they just got behind. Whatever. I won't quibble.

Thank you one and all for the kind words. I only wish I were not going into the fray alone on my tape date. Perhaps we'll have some good news via the video submission route, eh?

Congrats!!!!!!!!!
This was one of the first days in a long time where I closely monitored the bored. I FINALLY left and sure enough, there's good news.
Maybe I should have stayed away all day for the benefit of the rest of the pool ...

Hooray! I'm so glad we finally got a call for a BB today. I had lost all hope as 6:00 approached. Boy was I glad to be proven wrong!
Many congrats and all the best of luck!

Congratulations.
If you are looking for a P.A.F., I can recommend a former Jeopardy champion (no, not me--in fact, she might even be better). She knows history, movies, art, literature, food. I could save time by telling you what she doesn't know.
If you are interested, let me know.

Thanks! I have 2 committed and have a feeler out for a 3rd, but if I don't hear back by tomorrow afternoon, I'll be scrambling for that 3rd.
