Jen, I thought I’d let Seldom Seen respond to your question, but it seems he’s finally living up to his name. So to answer: the buoy was named after Olaf. But I think Seldom Seen should start naming all his buoys Olaf. I’m willing to give him exclusive usage rights to the Olaf Buoy for a mere four percent of his lobstering profits.

Fourth Night has come and gone and, once again, no post. What a pity that fifthnight.com is taken…

Funny stuff. I am so glad that you got these put up. I still can’t stop laughing about the free hugs guy texting between hugs and not missing a beat. BTW How many times did you say “12 contestant”? Really great stuff!

Love,
jake

I wondered… was OLAF named after the buoys, or vice versa?

Since you ask, here was my mother’s email response to the video:
“Funny, hilarious, but did you have to swear so much?
Your Greek swearing was by far the worst I have ever heard!
Poia mana se emegalose esena telospanton! [translated: What kind of mother raised you, anyway?]”

As for the rowing, I agree it was feeble – no back and legs in it – but it’s hard going when you have to play actor (a bit like looking for lobster buoys with OLAF written on them…). As you well know, seldom, I’m always up for a bet, so just let me know when you’re ready to go head to head rowing across the harbor. Maybe we can do it at low tide, so I can point out some of that red seaweed along the shore…

ahhh, busted at last…brilliant Jen.
seriously funny stuff, and that must be quite a good oxy moron. kind of a lot of swearing i thought, what with the bleeps and all. and Cons’ mother is watching this?
still, what a riot. clearly this was the perfect way to wind down a wonderful episode in all of our lives.
or some bullshit like that…

Hee! That was very fun. And I noticed that the boat was called Seldom Seen!

Thanks. It was fun to put together (at least for the first few days…). As is obvious, most of the blooper-worthy material was in the first few videos. It took me a while to realize that I don’t need to recite half the lines in one go. And that I don’t need to yap (and sniffle) so much.

I like the wall-stabbing scene too, Chris, mostly because of the music. I had a pseudo-bejeweled letter opener that impaled easily but I wanted to go with the Bowie knife. I still haven’t patched up those holes.

A-bone, don’t apologize to us. Apologize to your pants.
