That Brit - he so funny!
For real though, you rock man. This is great culture-jacking.
I find it truly bizarrre that dude can't say your name.

I'm dang glad it wasn't Shepherd Smith, who looks and talks like some kind of plastic cyborg. I swear he's all circa 1999 CGI. I may have turned them down had they said it was going to run on his show.

Go Joe-zee-uh! So what's the Coptix hit count up to since the story hit?

Way to go. Any and all protestations to the contrary, the "official" word is now that the Wonksters and KosKids are gullible idiots.
And how exactly does one mispronounce "Josiah"? I mean come on.

Joseeeeah! Sorry, but that's what I'm calling you from now on.

Joseah so apparently you're a terrorist..?

Glad to see that Josiah finally made national news. We all, in our gut, knew it would happen at some point.

what the heck, I"ve never heard anyone pronounce "josiah" like that. But I guess you've been living with that name for a lot longer than my son.

You also got yourself a wikipedia entry not (as far as I know) entered by anyone at Coptix. Good show.

Awesome. I edit on wikipedia pretty regularly (mostly on Chattanooga and Chattanooga history pages), but I've refrained from adding a Coptix page a la "vanity" pages. Nice to finally have one. I don't recognize any of the accounts who edited it.

"Land of the lost indeed!" Bravo!

Nice.

Let's check your scorecard of coverage:
1. Tom Griscom's Chattanooga Times Free Press
2. The Moonie Washington Times
3. Fox News
4. Michelle Malkin
I don't think that's something you want to brag about. You're the new darling of the radical right's propaganda wing. And Coptix used to be such a hip little software shop.

What, no shout-out to UnBeige? And it's not a software shop, dangit.

Reddit. Digg. And let's not forget all of the people who fell for it (apparently a LOT). Some are still even still blogging about it and crying conspiracy. LOL

JoeZeeRa Roe? ...bummer on the proNounSeeAtion.
Still not as bad as Jan (instead of Ian) Goodman winning runner up in the national barista competition.
