I woke up this morning at 8:30 a.m. This photographer from a local
magazine was coming to my house to take some pictures. I am really
tired, but I had to get up. We really have to try to promote this
show.... So I got up.
The photographer wanted to go to a playground to take pictures.
So we went to a playground to take the pictures.
The photographer wanted me to act silly. So I acted silly.
He said, "Could you hang upside down off that swing set and make some silly
faces." So I hung upside down off the swing set and made some silly
faces.
This went on for about an hour. Making silly faces in a playground.
I am a 26 year old man.
Then at around 2:30 I met with Kathy Donovan on Dows Lake.
Kathy is a reporter with CJOH television.
CJOH is putting together a story that they are going to run on Thursday.
We walked along Dows Lake and talked about the show. There were
people skating all over Dows Lake.
I brought three bags of milk with me to the interview. Kathy
Donovan and I milked the ice together.
This kid skated up to us, his ankles were all bent. He wasn't
a great skater.
I squirted the ice around his feet with the milk. That scared
him. He fell on the ice.
The CJOH camera filmed the boy falling on the ice.
I gave the boy my bag of milk. It was squirting on him.
It had a small hole punctured in it.
The milk was squirting on him. Freezing to his skin. Making
him wet.
I said to the boy, "Here... have some milk... It's a gift from
CJOH.
I said to the boy. "Hey... Suck the milk bag... CJOH wants you to suck
the milk bag.
CJOH WANTS YOU TO SUCK THE MILK BAG!
The boy was happy. He skated away happily sucking his milk.
I hope they air the whole interaction... They'll probably never
have me back on the station again.

I spoke with Merilyn at around 5:00 p.m. Merilyn Read is the producer
of The Tom Green Show.
She had just spent the day meeting with The Comedy Network people.
I think there may be a slight element of skepticism about our show.
I think the network is waiting, just as we are, to see what people are
going to think. They are waiting to see how people respond.
See the new stuff is pretty weird sometimes. The new shows are
pretty weird sometimes.
It's a pretty hard thing to analyze when you just watch it and judge
it.
So everybody is just waiting. Waiting to see if people like our
wierd little show.
It's a strange position for me to be in.
See I know that people like the show. But that's because of all
you nice people on the internet.
I come here and read all the messages that you post, and the e-mail.
And it makes all of us at the show very happy. It gives us the energy
to keep churning out this crappy television that we make every day.
But I don't think The Comedy Network fully understands the amount of
support we have from people like you. There's no way they could know,
because they don't run this site. Glenn Humplik runs this site.
He knows.
So when the show airs, if you like the show, make sure that you let
The Comedy Network know. Call them and tell them that you love us.
Tell them that it is the best show you have ever seen on your television.
Tell them that your television is a glowing box that sounds come out
of. It is a glowing noise box.
Tell them that if my glowing face, and my sexy voice doesn't keep spewing
from your glowing noise box, then you will never use your glowing noise
box again. Tell them how much you paid for your glowing noise box.
Tell them that you don't want to have to throw that investment away...
Tell them this stuff. Phone them and tell them after the
show starts to air next week...
But seriously, it would help us out, and it would help them out... They need to know what viewers think....Of course if you think the show sucks, just keep that to yourself... Because nobody really needs to know if you think the show sucks right?
At 6:30 I met with Tralee Pierce, a reporter from The Sun.
She must think I'm on the verge of a nervous breakdown. She's
right.
I showed up to the interview all nervous and twitchy.
I will have a nervous breakdown before this is though... I promise.
See ya tommorow, and thanks for listening.
