Rockwood (and Thriller) News
Thursday, August 28, 2008
The Olympics Games have been over since Sunday,
but the Rockwood
Olympic Watch won't be done until tomorrow, when we bring you the 2008
Rockwood Olympic Watch Medal Ceremony.
You won't want to miss that one.
But today you can see who got poetic
for Haiku
Thursday. Then you can drop us a line in the Rockwood
Mailbag. Maybe you could even let us know who you think deserves
special Olympic recognition. Do that today and maybe YOUR pick will make
it into the Medal Ceremony.
The
View had a story on the new TLC show Rock
The Reception. No, we weren't on it, but the hosts of RTR claimed
that a new trend had been started by some weird couple that did Thriller
at their wedding. I wonder who that was?
Anyway, they had a brief clip of the Wedding
Thriller Dance at the beginning of the segment, so we made national
news again. Weird, eh?
Thriller
news! Guess
who counts us as one of his "favorites?" Sure
it's obvious why, but it's still cool.
The Wedding
Thriller Dance is now officially
over 7 million hits. Weird, eh?
The latest
Thriller sighting? Well, it appears that ABC shares with their affiliates
everywhere,
so that "iCaught" story
also ended up in New
Zealand. We're worldwide, baby!
And if you're here from New Zealand, why not
look around and read some comics? C'mon... the
only
reason
you're
here in the first place is because you're wasting time at work. Why not
go all the way? I recommend starting with the archive.
You'll enjoy it! I promise!
And here's the semi-master list of Thriller Dance
links:
First, the original Wedding
Thriller Dance.
Most recently:
A local newspaper, the Oklahoma
Gazette, did a small article.
The Real
Life Wedding issue of People Magazine.
Also, CBS:
The Early Show reporting on the People story.
Older stuff:
Locally, KFOR
Channel
4 did what we thought was the best (and most accurate) story so far.
Our very first TV appearance was Good
Morning America.
Later, we were on Good
Morning America,
again.
Next, there's Inside
Edition, showing us practicing.
We made a brief appearence on ABC's Nightline (go
about 2:03 into the clip).
Another brief appearence happened on the NBC
Nightly News (about 1:25 in).
And last, but definitely not least, there was the
live, nationwide TV performance for the The
Morning Show With Mike And Juliet.
It's also appeared on numerous other shows,
but until I find links
for those you'll
just have to take my word for it. And for those of you
in the United Kingdom, keep watching. It's coming your way, soon.
It is the official policy of Team Rockwood that if you want to use any Rockwood comic strips on your web site, you may. In fact, we encourage it. However, in return, we do ask that you link back to us. If you're going to use our strip, it's only fair, don't you think?
