Going to be on TV!
« on: February 25, 2008, 07:12:42 pm »
  Yep! Hollywood here I come.  Going to be on TV tomorrow night, Feb 26th.  David Oliver of KOLR 10 out of Springfield MO. will have a little deal on the ARKANSAWYER SAWMILL on the 10 pm news.

 

  The crew was here filming today and we were busy and short two men.  Weather was nice for a change.  Hope it was worth their trip.

 

  So if you get Springfield MO. channel 10 the segment is to come on before the weather so watch and see how I did.  Guess it was my first time on camera like that.  LBJ would not get out of the truck so it was just me and the hands.  I will see if I can get the wife to record it and sell copies to raise money so the mill will not look so bad.

Yee-haw Arky!  Congrats on your media breakthrough.

Will this make you "famous" or "infamous"?....

I don't guess I'll be able to come visit you any more now that you'll be a big shot movie star and me just common folk from up the way. :D :D Good for you Arky. Mayhaps it will help bring in the biz. I'll let Lindy know to watch it.

Yep, this is cool to the max! 8) 8)  Getting that kind of exposure has got to be good!

I just got one question, though.  I was lookin' at that funny lookin' little car them folks was drivin, and got to wonderin' if they work for that station on the front door, or the one on the back door. ??? ;D

WOW a bonafide celebrity! 

It would be cool to get that posted here.  ARKY, you may be able to request a DVD.

    Well we was on.  Getting calls already.  Here is a link and you can watch it.  DanG it is the Ozarks and we get just three channels and two are the same under different names.  Hope Bro. Noble was able to stay up that late and see it live.
  Click on the "watch" button by THE ARKANSAWYER  and there is a commercial then us.

Can you save a copy from the link? If I need to, I can call KOLR10 and get permission to copy. Let me know.

I don't have any real way to copy it. They may not even allow us to. I guess the real question for them is, will that video clip STAY on their website, or disappear in a few weeks. You guys wanna make sure you can get your self a copy to save if they don't.

Arky, you don't look to have aged a day since I saw ya last. ;)

Yep,  it's a miricle I didn't fall asleep before You came on,  Arky.  That's way past my bedtime ;)

I'll start out with a little criticism :o :o  As you could expect,  it was too short to show everything I wanted to see and hear.  The newscaster referred to it as an old-time sawmill,  which was innacurate,  but didn't detract from anything.

The good things were:  It put David in a very good light and couldn't have been a better advertisement if he had paid to have it aired.  It made the portable bandmills look good and productive---WM in particular.  It put sawmilling and the industry in a good light.

It was a good thing for Arky and all the rest of us too. ;D
