from your screen to your receiv¬

Jon Oore
Winner Ryan Malcom wasn't the only one on the long road to the Canadian Idol final.
Ottawa comedian, Jon Oore, packed his bags and joined the tour as it travelled from
Vancouver to St. John's and stops in between. Oore —afrequent perfomerat comedy
clubs across Canada and former host of Daytime in Ottawa —was an Idol "correspon¬
dent," whose official duties included playing traffic cop at the porta-potties in Montreal,
going shirtless in -4C weather in Winnipeg, getting screeched in in Newfoundland, club
hopping in Toronto, and going shirtless (again) on the Maid of the Mist at Niagra Falls.
Of his role as aleavening agent for Canada’s prime-time talent face-off, which wrapped
in mid-September, Oore said he hopes it will open alot of doors for him. “Canadian Idol is
alot of fun to be apart of.... The cast and crew are great people."
Though he doesn’t have acomputer, there are acouple of digital tools he says he can’t
live without: his cell phone and his email.
"Any date that Ihave to appear at, or anything that Ihave to do, Ihave to check my
email,” admits Oore. “I tried using aregular day planner but after aday or two I’d stop.”
He accesses his email from Internet cafes or from his girlfriend’s computer.
Of his cell phone: “It’s very important now because people do need to reach me and I
need to call out." He says he did have aproblem with his phone when, while playing
around with it, he changed the language setting to Portuguese. “I had to learn
Portuguese because Icould not figure out how to change the language back,” he laughs.
“There are some flaws in technology. But Ilike technology, like my cell phone, that
you can drop and it still works —although battery-fed technology is sometimes frus¬
trating because it still has to be plugged in."

The Web site suggests using the service for birthday greetings, congratulatory calls,
and even "motivational calls." Of course you can use the call for any reason: to talk to a
favourite old celebrity, to "impress aclient" as the Web site advertises, or just for a
good laugh at the expense of those who have resorted to humiliating themselves for
20 bucks.
Once you make your selection, you can enter in all relevant information, including the
name of the person who’ll be receiving the call. The site states the celebrity "will men¬
tion this name." After your order has been processed, the call will come anytime during
the next seven days.
For more information, or to have the guy from Walker, Texas Ranger give you aring,
visit www.HollywoodlsCalling.com.
