Drew, Our Spiritual Networker

[synabetic]

Not very long ago, maybe a couple of hours at most, I got word from an old friend that another old friend of mine, Drew, was killed by way of trash compactor a few days ago. A pretty horrible way to go, I imagine. A completely inadequate and hastily written article footnote about it can be found here.

Even though I haven't seen Drew for eight or

I got lost a few times, but I agree with the sentiment. I supect less years have passed since I left school than you, but I have already learnt of the death of one of my old classmates. And, aside from the 'Christ, that's young' feeling I get at the news of any death of someone young I didn't really feel anything else. So I guess I know how you feel. And why should you feel bad for not feeling the way others did? On Saturday there was a concert for Princess Diana and the RUBBISH you hear from people about how she was a true friend, how she touched them etc etc just makes me want to scream sometime. Very few of the people talking had ever even met her let alone had a normal conversation with her. Bah. I'm losing my point somewhere.

I actually now have nowhere to go with this anymore so I'll probably stop now. Oh, in a totally unrelated vein, would MediaGauntlet like a review of Captivity?

Yeah, I always feel odd when I see people Hardcore Mourn someone they've never even met. I'll probably tear up a bit when Clint Eastwood dies... But then again, I met him briefly (But I know him not at all; not his work).

Anyhow I think I see your point. :)

And heck yeah, I/we would LOVE to have your review!!

To whom do I send it then? Should have something written by the end of the day. Best do because I'll probably forget everything if I leave it much later!

[synabetic]

Go ahead and send it to steve (at) mediagauntlet (dot) com.

Are you given an option to post it yourself? Go into My Content (make sure you're logged in) and you'll see "New" and "Choose a Section" and go from there. Then Ryan and I will approve it. :)

[flatline2010]

Ah, I already sent it to media@ as the site says. Hope that'll work.

[synabetic]

Shouldn't be an issue :)

In order for you to have your name on the review, though, we might either put it up in your name (if we can; I'll have to ask Ryan), or have you put it up in the way I described (which makes me sound like we're going to force you with hot tongs and pliers... hahaha).

[flatline2010]

Should think it would work (might require a bit of MySQL manipulation). If not I'll do it the other way tomorrow. And I'll remember next time.

[synabetic]

Yeah, you better! Or you're fired!!

:P

No worries, man. We'll work it out. Should be awesome having you on board (hopefully this won't be the only review!).
