That's not As silly as it sounds, good news/bad news story, right down Today / Tonights alley. would generate interest and maybe a few more donations towards getting Andy back into a Zed. here you go Chili, give them a call, you never know. http://au.todaytonight.yahoo.com/
that's actually a really good idea as there has been a serious amount of "hoon" related stories in the media recently (urgh i won't dwell on that or i'll get arc'ed up) anyway its not fashionable to portray "hoons" as anything other than 18 y/o maniacs intent on killing aussie battlers but you never know.. its the kind of story they might run on a slow news day.. and the results of increased exposure for andy would be fantastic..
Im in Media, i have sent a few emails around to publications, Hot 4's etc. Thought about news, but havent as yet.
I agree - actually not too bad an idea! and invite them around to the QLD AndyMac Fundraiser BBQ: http://www.aus300zx.com/forum/showthread.php?t=257514 Seriously, one of them is sure to consider it!
well .. just do it ..!! an idea.. why leave it to to others .. heaps of noise and no action .. comme d'habitude ..??? ..
yeah they would be interested i think, well a car getting stolen and burnt they wouldnt give a damn... but a whole bunch of people, many of who have never met, alot whom have never even spoken to each other, lending a hand prepared to donate for a cause, and alot of people donating to a friend. new image for hoons? TT cars... your all hoons whether u know it or not.
If you're serious about the media coverage idea then we could get Chili to talk to the people at ACA and Today Tonight. They take suggestions over their websites and these kinds of stories would attract a large audience. Personally I believe this story deserves to be told as it has brought out the best in all of us. I've never met any of you but I still felt compelled to donate as I can understand the attachment Andy would have had to his car. Its a true display of the forum spirit. Here's the links to the TT and ACA story suggestion websites: http://au.todaytonight.yahoo.com/contactform/30607 http://aca.ninemsn.com.au/feedback/default.aspx?formid=228 Sandeep
Sent a message to Today Tonight, earlier today(although I feel it looks a bit like I'm trying to get myself a big pat on the back for all of this) I think it would look better if it came from someone else, personally.
ill take the credit for suggesting today tonight! bwahahaha Na seriously chilli its a great idea and you deserve it mate! good job son! bit of TV coverage might get you a root or 2
Bigbaz says: your comment to chili about getting a root is so much funnier when you know what chili looks like Joshy boy - go the FALCON! says: lol ys that Joshy boy - go the FALCON! says: whats he look like Bigbaz says: he is like 60-70 years old Joshy boy - go the FALCON! says: oh..... Joshy boy - go the FALCON! says: BABHAHAHAHAHAHA bigbaz just sent me a pic chili... deposit made.... lol
Bigbaz is a f***wit. No one is happier than I, knowing that bigbaz finds me unattractive. That's worth a celebration all by itself. Never mind Baz, I'll be dead before too long(probably before you replace those stuffed tyres). Now how about we get this more serious thread back on topic?
