Jonathan Frid and Crypts
« on: April 21, 2007, 05:01:33 AM »
Well, cryptic statements I should say.  Check out a statement JF put on his website today.

There's no prize if you guess what he means. :P

Are we supposed to be looking at the "Keep in touch with us as our 40th Anniversary..."? Because I didn't see anything cryptic on there other than that.

Color me stupid I suppose. ;)

Well, he fell down.  I found out that much.    First time I've known anyone to translate that into animation!

If it's not for a grade, it's not worth doing, or so my students tell me.  ::)

Where, oh, where can I read the latest statement? In any event, I have my bets on him being the "mystery guest" in August! What a treat for us fans for that to be true!

Yes, Jonathan Frid IS going to the DS fan event in August.  He just made the announcement on his website today.  It is the first DS event he has attended since 1993 so be gentle with him, lol.

He plans on being there for Saturday.  ShadowGram and the festival website will have all the details.

Now we just need to find a way so all of us that can't go can see it. Why don't they do a feed to the internet?? How about the similcast and the proceeds to a charity??

Vote for Jonathan in the Walk of Fame.

I remember seeing Michelangelo's Pieta at the New York World's Fair in 1965.  We stood on a conveyor belt and were moved past the statue, which seemed quite far away from my 10-year-old self.  Perhaps that's how Mr. Frid should be viewed this August.  I'm sure somebody could dig up a dead doxy for him to hold.

Meanwhile I'm trying to figure out how in the world I'm going to be able to get to the Fest, because if perchance Frid does a reading, I definitely want to be there for it.

Frid is performing at the event and doing a Q&A among other things.
