Welcome Wayne!

[Michaelangelo]

Thanks for answering all those questions!  Heh we do keep them coming don't we?

I wanted to inform you that the news we're getting here is that the Lost season will not be released in the US on DVD after all.  Though it is being released in a few other countries.  I'll be ordering mine from Austral!

You mentioned "Lost" and "Battlestar", now I'm curious what is "Battlestar"?  *G*

I am enjoying Fast Forward more as the season went in a bit, it got better.  Though it's still not the first 4 (5 if you count the Lost season) of the show.   There's stuff in it that just seems to be missing.  The character growth from the other seasons did not come into the future with them.  Though we get flash backs of the other seasons... (why did the flash backs even have a new costume for Turtle Titan??  That just seemed wrong).

They're doing anime awards at New York City Comic Con this year, your name is not on the list of VAs choosen for it, though both Sam and Mike S. are.  Even Mike Pollock gets mentioned in the comedy area.  Does this higher the chances of seeing you or any of the other VAs at NYC Comic Con?

Hey surprise, I'm back!

Well, I was finally convinced to join MySpace, so if y'all are on it and want to be my friend there, http://www.myspace.com/graywayne , is your ticket to Grayadise! There's really nothing on my page yet, and there probably won't be for some time, but I like it so far, so join me! If you've e-mailed me in the past asking me to join, those e-mails are long gone, so please ask me again.

Quickly...

Michelangelo-"Battlestar" is short for "Battlestar Galactica" which could very well be the best show on television. Definitely check it out. It's vastly superior to the original. Vastly. I don't know if anyone here even remembers the original, but trust me, it was terrible.

As usual, NY Comic Con hasn't invited me, even though I live here. I don't know that being nominated for anything would sweeten the pot for any VAs to attend, but I'd be curious to see who wins and what the criteria is. What are my compatriots nominated for?

Glad you're keeping an open mind about FF. It's definitely growing on me too.

Okay, needs must go. See ya!

OOO!  I remember the original-- after the first "Star Wars" came out, it REALLY highlighted just how bad Battlestar was-- Gad, I was in College when that first aired--


Sorry-- THANKS FOR THE ANSWER!  What kind of cookies are your favorite, and where would be a safe place to send them without people from 4kids eating them??????


:D:D:D:D:D

And thanks for saying you'll pass that bit o' support on to Darren!  Yep, I've become a full-fledged Splinter fan over the years!  

Thanks again!

Welcome to the TMNT-L, Wayne. I left you a mango of Trust back at the oz.

That is really cool that you got a myspace account,   though when I clicked on the link it brought me to an error page than I found out why there's a , right after your link that they're treating like it's part of the link.    I already sent a friend request to you on there   Hard not to miss which account is mine  

Here's your myspace URL again for those who don't want the , in there.   http://www.myspace.com/graywayne

Here's the information about the awards that is being given out for VAs and different animes.  

http://www.americananimeawards.com/

A lot of us are having a hard time choosing to vote between Mike & Sam since we love em both!   I choose Sam, with the hopes that they'd bring the winners to New York City Comic Con, and I'd love to meet him again   So out of curious mind that I have... are you going to vote?  And who would you vote for?

[Buslady]

Oooooo Wayne, I was just there in NYC! We drove a new bus (we run a bus company) from canada and stopped in NJ and took the train over to the city....WOWOW!! I love it.
I SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO LOVE NYC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I found Midtown Comics right off Broadway....came out with a few TMNT comics....I was haaaapppppyyyy.....
And the Pizza...to DIE for. I miss it. I won't eat pizza here in SoCal...it's boring.

I sent an invite i think on that myspace thingy...i think i did it right. it confuses me  

[HotCocoa]

Okay, okay, no more Wayney! I promise!

How could they not invite you all to their party? Silly willies...Anyway, glad you and your wife had a good Christmas, and that you call her "Sigs"...hee...I think nicknames with husbands and wives are cute. You're recording voice-overs for birthday cards? That would be awesome to open a card and have it scream Mikey's voice at you! I can't wait! So...you're not the only VA who became a husband this year? That's sweet...who all else got hitched? Well...I think I'm blabbering now...hope to hear from you soon!

[GrayWayne]

Hey Gang!

Just spent, like, an hour on MySpace downloading a bunch of pics. Check 'em out! There's a couple of me doing stage work, one or two of the elusive Campbell and even a couple of my wedding pics. There's also a number of incredibly silly shots that take way too long to explain. Ivey corrected the link to my page in a previous post. Much obliged.

While I have a sec...

cynlee-Though I greatly appreciate the offer, history has shown that sending things to 4Kids is a crap shoot. Since they have more than one office, and since us VAs aren't there every day, stuff gets lost in the shuffle. Don't take a chance with cookies. And incidentally, I never met a chocolate chip cookie I didn't like...

Lady Mew-Thanks for the welcome and I really wish I understood the rest of that post.

Michelangelo-So, I checked out that link. Dude, there's something like 50 nominees for each category!!! That's overkill. There's a reason why most awards only have 4-5 nominees in contention. I don't see how they can narrow it down to one winner. Especially since it's a popular vote. And wait a second, there's stuff on there from years ago. Akira? Now, I love Akira, but really, come on, that came out 20 years ago. Is it fair to still have it in the running? Voltron? Utena? Is this an all-time anime award thing? Where's Robotech, Speed Racer and Gigantor? Sheesh. No Cowboy Bebop on there? Weird. No, I won't be voting, it's too large a beast.

Buslady-Pizza does rule here. Chicago's a close second, but I find that it just ain't good once you leave NYC. Even in Italy the pizza's substandard. Midtown Comics is an awesome store! They get my highest acclaim. By now you probably know you did the MySpace thingy right! Rock on!!!

Cocoa-No worries. Don't know when the cards will be available, but I recorded them about a month ago. I'd guess they'd be out by April or May. John Campbell and Pete Zarustica got married to their long-time significant others in August and July, respectively, of this past year. Copycats!

Stay groovy,

-Mikey

[Michaelangelo]

Cool pictures!   Some of them seem a bit small, but I can see why you put them up    I commented on a few of them.

Do you know if the other Turtles are doing voices for cards as well?  

Yeah it was a bigger vote thing than I originally thought as well when I first went there.  Though it's nice to see something going on for anime.  And since it's the first time, I can see why they're using some old anime mixed in with new.  Though I wonder how they came up with the selection they used.   I was happy to see so many names in there that I've gotten to know though.   Made some of the areas hard to pick.

[Buslady]

Hey Wayne,
my nephew  Robert  wanted to say HI and he is a BIIIGGG Mikey fan
Love the photos ya posted and you posted pics of John! YAY!! Now alla you guys just need to come to SDCC so I can say HI in person

[HotCocoa]

I like your myspace pictures! Your wife is very pretty...I like her hairstyle for your wedding...and her dress! Your other pics were quite interesting, and you're right, they could take some explaining! Especially that mokey one! So, are you two lovebirds planning on having any kids? Of course, I'm sure your work schedule probably interferes with that sometimes. Do you have any nieces or nephews? I use my niece as practice for when I get older!

[SimbasPride]

OMG LOL!!!!!!!!!!!! THOSE PICS ARE HILARIOUS! BUNGEEE JUMPING! I'd scream my anus off! LOL! And the one with Seline! THAT'S SO BEUTIFUL! (You're such a lucky soul Wayne honestly) lol. Wow Hotcocoa thats a very personal question O.O.

[Jephael]

Wayne, I didn't know you got MySpace, Would you like to add me to your MySpace friends? I just had to remake my profile after some jerk hacker erased my original account!

[Shredder]

Glad you're keeping an open mind about FF. It's definitely growing on me too.

Okay, needs must go. See ya!

Heh, Marc is either a terrific lier, or he only told 'a certain point of view' to keep fans off track, or these eps hadn't been recorded this time last year and he really didn't know ...

I remember asking at  Anime Next whether or not Casey was in Fast Forward, and he said unfortunately, no.  Then we get the journal this year.  Guess we can't trust you
sneaky voice actor types at all, can we?


Speaking of which, how un-trustworthy could a single lady be? .  That's exactly my problem, though.  I never went to college, so all of my extended friends are from highschool, and ARE all married or dating.  The last single one found someone completely by accident, and now I'm left even more alone in the house, with no one to go see a movie with, or go to an arcade, or what have you.   Yet every time I see my uncle come over, I am reminded of why I want to start that extended family...because I see what not finding someone special can be like.  He's 52ish, sits alone in his house all day when he does not work, and when he does work, he hates his job, argues with his co workers and neighbors, and has generally gone house crazy by annoying everyone else in the family.  That could be my future and I'm working hard to change it .

While I know dating and marriage has it's own hangups, it's gotta be better than the single life all your life, as this one relative helps prove .  Heh, if you, or even someone at 4Kids knows a cute, in shape, non smoking single lady who's available by February, I'll be around to meet them at the NY Comic Con this year .

[Shredder]

Add on reply...

Just saw the myspace.

How the heck did you get to meet Slider himself Mr.Davies?  Was he a nice guy, or a bit pompous like I've heard?  And how on Earth did you get dragged to the Rennisance Festival?
I went to that one year, and didn't really have fun untill I left .  But it was something differen
