Why does she have to tell Chuck that she loves taking what Sarah wants, right? She must have known or met Sarah when they were young. Carina and Sarah would make guys drool LOL super hot sibs. Plus, Chuck gets Sarah and Casey gets Carina haha! You'll never know maybe Carina is the 3rd wheel in Season 3 if Jill is not coming back :)choke and diehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04644886802174213982noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17517257.post-27973297642011781012009-06-01T22:23:51.718-04:002009-06-01T22:23:51.718-04:00I did see it finally on the trending.

I'm pretty proud of us.<br /><br />It turns out that Mel and Darth from ChuckTV.net were right about what to tweet... I just wish they'd picked their hashtags more than 24 hours in advance, so my damn flyer could have said the right thing. <br /><br />Owel; easy enough to change.<br /><br />I'd estimate we saw somewhere between 1500 and 2000 tweets from oh, 150 people? Enough to get digitalsmiths.tv's attention, I suspect.<br /><br />hashtags.org is behind, but will probably have a final count tomorrow.<br /><br />We *did* make it to number 5 with a bullet on the trending list, as Mel intended, and it did...<br /><br />ok, ok, as Mel intended, pull in some people who didn't know what we were on about.<br /><br />Next week I will have a tweetbot running, advertising what's going on and posting some links. Assuming I can find one.<br /><br />Otherwise, a clipboard enhancer.<br /><br />In any event, thanks, Alan, for posting the story.Baylinkhttp://photo.imageinc.usnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17517257.post-59117630824637795192009-06-01T19:35:51.898-04:002009-06-01T19:35:51.898-04:00yay for CHUCK! this is such a grat idea to keep th...yay for CHUCK! this is such a grat idea to keep the chuck momentum going through the summer and fall and hopefully until season three premire!!abbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05647783440191324989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17517257.post-75329736646076146942009-06-01T18:56:25.748-04:002009-06-01T18:56:25.748-04:00Hey, Anon 6:11pm - good going!

I would assume it might have happened elsewhere, but I haven;t seen it yet.<br /><br />There is, though, that Chekovian comment about fiction that says that if you show a gun on the mantel in the first act, there had *better* be a corpse in act 2, and a murderer in act 3...<br /><br />I assume they wanted us to make the assumption; perhaps Alan can employ his superpowers to find out whether Fedak or Schwarz will admit anything on this topic. (No, Alan, we're not ever going to stop riffing on that, until the end of time.)Baylinkhttp://photo.imageinc.usnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17517257.post-75299250888651966342009-06-01T18:13:40.141-04:002009-06-01T18:13:40.141-04:00I showed someone a recent picture of Yvonne Straho...I showed someone a recent picture of Yvonne Strahovski (the one in Best Life magazine) and she said YS looked like Olivia Wilde. <br /><br />I didn't notice the resemblance, but I wasn't aware of OW when she was on The O.C. and a blonde.AppleJillnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17517257.post-80400523719626044662009-06-01T18:13:17.218-04:002009-06-01T18:13:17.218-04:00Wow.
