The Ultimate Geekout.

Oh my god.

Check out this site.

This is simply... sad and stunning all at once. For 20-30 bucks, you can have a celebrity call you on the phone, for birthdays, holidays, or just because.

The coolest thing is that they actually have people i'd care to talk to:

With the rumors of new episodes of FarScape being filmed, who better to talk to than Virginia Hey? She was Zhaan, the big bald blue priestess-type chick on FarScape, one of my very favorite shows ever, AND she was in "The Road Warrior". I have lots of stuff i could ask her about. She's my top pick.

John De Lancie played the infamous Q on various Star Trek series. I even read a book he wrote.

Lou Ferrigno, a legend to us comicbook geeks. He played The Hulk on tv. But i thought he was deaf, so how would a phone call work?

Russell Johnson, the Professor from Gilligan's Island. 'Nuff Said.

Todd Bridges, Willis from Diff'rent Strokes: how many times do you think he hears "Watchoo talkin' 'bout, Willis?" during these calls? Who WOULDN'T want to say that, given the chance I know i do.

Tim Russ, Tuvok from various Star Trek series. More Trek geekiness. Talk to a Vulcan.

Richard Hatch from Survivor. I like Survivor. I've watched it since the beginning. Geekout.

So, anyone wanna get me a Christmas present? Get Virginia Hey or John De Lancie to call me. ;D

(Okay, i know the calls are only 30 seconds long, and meant for answering machines, etc., but still... ;D)
