Blogathon 2003 -- Closing statements

[We're back in the Decatur studio. Vid is behind the desk, Riki is standing in the hole he left in the sofa, Jet has tipped over and is drooling cold coffee into the sofa cushions. Spling is absent.]

Vidicon:  That was absolutely ridiculous. But that's beside the point. Did we make any money?

Riki:  Not a penny, of course. Every last bit went to a cancer research charity, remember?

Vidicon:  Doofus. That's what I meant. What's the score?

[EVERYBODY DRINK! Audience cheers.]

Riki:  Thirty-one sponsors, for a total of $783. But that's not exactly final final, because the Blogathon site will be open for pledges for the next forty-eight hours so they can mop up all the slackers.

Vidicon:  $217 under the goal, eh? Does that mean I don't have to take my pants down?

Riki:  I hate to break this to you, dude, but you haven't been wearing pants at any point in the past twenty-four hours.

Vidicon:  Cool, then. Saves me some trouble.

[Vidicon flips his kilt up and moons the audience. Audience "oooh"s.]

Vidicon:  Let that be a lesson to you. It's all your fault I had to go through hell like this tonight. I'll bet you'll remember it now.

[Jet burbles quietly into a sofa cushion.]

Vidicon:  It's over. Go home. Shoo.

Riki:  Big thanks to 31 FLAVOuRS for putting up with this shit. This is gonna look damned strange on their résumé. If you get a chance to see them, like, in real life, you'll enjoy the hell out of it.

G'night!

Vidicon:  Shoo.

I woke up and read every single post.

Once again, sorry I couldn't donate to the cause.

Way to go, Vid. Awesome.

I still hate that I couldn't see the freakin' webcam! But I sent an e-mail to the x address, anyway.

You had us rolling in the aisles man! I may just have to add you after this. Way to go!

Congratulations. You have not only raised a good chunk of change for charity, you've also inspired legions across the globe to emulate your goofiness.

::blink::

Okay, that last bit could cause a lot of trouble.

Congratulations on the fine work anyway!

Once again, you astound and impress. I just wish I'd have had internet access so I could have seen the webcam! Still, a lovely way to spend Monday morning. ;)

I just wanted to thank you and your sponsors for the suberb effort in this year's Blogathon. I'm not sure what I would feel like after 24 hours on the keyboard but I know it wouldn't be pretty.

The money has been coming in steadily and we will use it to make a difference in the search for a cure.

Congratulations and many thanks,

Jack Cumming
Association for International Cancer Research.

PS - As I am typing this from St. Andrews I thought the kilt was a nice touch ;-)
