The definitive Come In And Complain, That's What It's Here For topic. Since we all need that once in awhile. XP
Personally I'll just skip over all that blah concerning the big stuff and center in on the littler thing that's been irking me.
I'm a very large fan of Foster's Home For Imaginary Friends, which due to my recent lack of sleep I just now typed as Foster's Home For Imaginary Animals. Which we won't dwell on. Anyway, I'm a fan. I would start a Wilt fanlisting if I had the knowledge needed.
Thanks to living in a town with no TV reception, however, the only chance I've ever gotten to see the show was 1) when we were seeking refuge in a hotel from a hurricane, and 2) when we were seeking refuge in a friend's house from a flood. Kind of bad times to be watching TV but hey.
I'm pretty disheartened over the fact that no one I know is willing to record the show for me. I'm willing to buy the tape/DVDs and even pay them for their trouble, but no one wants to bother despite how much it means to me.
I'm only after two episodes: Where There's A Wilt There's A Way, and Phone Home. Neither of them are available anywhere. Apparently recording two episodes of a show is too much trouble.
Botheration.

Oh, dear. I would, but I have no idea if I even get that channel - plus I don't own a DVD burner. Sorry. I also wish to vent my ire... sorta. I just really, really, really, don't want to do this physics exam tomorrow. XP It's "only" on electricity (we just finnished the unit right after it, electromagnetism, so I'm bound to remember that, not what I'm supposed to know...). I think I sorta kinda maybe maybe not perhaps understand the concepts. It all depends on how tired I'll be tomorrow while taking the test (last block, so I can agonize about it all day). In addition, it'll be short blocks (due to a totally awesome food thing going on at luch, so I won't complain about the reason for the time change) - so I'll get ten or fifteen minutes less to write the test than I usually would. -_-; I hope Monsieur takes pity on us and lets us finish it off Friday...

Sorry I didn't have time to reply earlier; we're in the middle of state-mandated standardized tests(talk about things that SUCKETH) at the school where I teach, and I have to administer not one, but TWO, testing sessions, so I'm beat, and I have little computer time available. Anyway, I have the episodes you're after on VHS. I just have to sort through and find which tape they're on, and get my father to make copies(he has like, 10 VCRs)or, if you would prefer, burn them to a DVD. Sadly, my VCR stopped recording before Season Three got going good, so I have very few Season Three eps, and none of this Season's, which just started, and so far looks very promising. I have to admit I watch this show almost religiously, and I guess I'm gonna have to find someone to record it for ME, this November, when the one-hour special movie about Wilt's past, Good Wilt Hunting ,airs. THAT promises to be about as good as a Monsters, Inc. sequel starring Randall as the hero! As you can tell from my DA gallery, I am extremely fond of Wilt. There IS a fanlisting for him, by the way, called "Uncommonly Gentle". It can be found here: stepherz.org/wilt/ , and there is also a DA Wiltfans club. I'm also a member and co-moderator of a VERY active Foster's forum, "Never Forgotten", which can be found at nffostershome.proboards52.com/ , and we would certainly welcome you there. pitbulllady

HEY! Speaking of Fosters...I MAY do a CoMONdy with the main crew from it ^_^ Oh, THAT would be great! Bloo would probably remind Randall far too much of a certain green loudmouthed idiot, though, even though Bloo has way more shall we say, cojones, in terms of courage, than "Googly Bear"! BLOO doesn't NEED to hide behind an eight-foot tall buddy when HE picks fights with guys way bigger than himself! And, Randall SO needs to hang out with Wilt. Those two really do have more in common than initially meets the eye, and Wilt would be a great older mentor/role model for Randall, even though he himself has still got some issues from his past that he refuses to deal with. pitbulllady

Ah...like a two-parter will you?
Hmm...strange that Nauticus was my only viewer in the several recent postings though...

Thank you /so/ much for this. Whatever is easiest for you is best with me; just tell me when you need my address, and how much the needed cassettes/DVD cost. Thank you from a very severe Wilt fan. Gods, standardized tests. They plague students and teachers both, it seems. XP

Gah, just finished said standardized tests. Thankfully, we've got a few weeks of freedom, including work experience, before we have to return to normal school hours.
I know exactly how you feel Avis- I am just so desperate to see more episodes of Teen Titans, but just as I have got into it, they stopped showing it on television. Before, they showed four episodes a day, but now, I haven't seen one for nearly a month. I can't order the DVDs, as they're expensive and I'm not able to order things off the internet anyway.

Well, I try to come on once every couple of weeks. But, from this September, although I'll still be the key administrator, I'm willing to make one or two of the other more frequent members of the board admins. ;D

What I mean is, that starting this September, I'm gonna have a whole year's worth of exams and coursework before sixthform, so I really won't have as much time to come on here.
Aw, thanks. ;D
