I received this email today:
Dear Mr. Elfman,
I just finished designing and creating a music website for Rampage Music NY.If you’re interested in revising your website to make it more dynamic, visit my site.
Thank you for you time,
CarmelaWow. How humbling!
Ryan
so… what.. does he think you are elman?
Are you Elfman? Ryan?
Everything is very strange around here…who am I?…Whoam I?!!!!!
Don’t Know who the f**k I am. OHHHHH!!! I’m James Horner…jajajajaI guess you don’t have to have any sort of intellect to create *dynamic* websites.
So, Ryan of the Pod People, is there something you want to share? (Sorry, Nat, had to borrow the phrase…it’s probably some inside joke that I don’t understand, and am thus destroying whatever meaning previously present in the comment. My apologies…)
In any case, I think this site is “dynamic” enough…
Wow. I wish I’D get an email like that. . . but I’m not Elfman, now am I . . . heheh.
Hmmm, you think “Ryan” accidently copied and pasted his name with the email? . . . heheheheh.
So Ryan, you have any pictures of yourself?
Kidding around.
This Rampage Music website is a lot of things… adjectives like boring, sloppy, cheesy etc. come to my mind – but definitely not “dynamic”.
I’m telling you. SUSPECT. The LOT of ya.
well, “ryan” wouldn’t bring the e-mail he recieved to our attention if he was that other red person, so I guess he should try and make it more clear who he is. maybe call is “ryan’s music for a darkened people” or “danny elman’s music is for a darkened people.. by ryan”. or maybe i should just be quiet.
lexi: shhh!
In light of recent conversations here, I will refrain from my normal sarcastic response and not even discuss the content of that email.
However, I do have a question for you Ryan. I know this isn’t the first time you’ve gotten email addressed to Danny. What I want to know is if you ever get naughty emails from Danny’s lusty fans?
You don’t have to tell us about the naughty ones addressed to you, just the ones addressed to Danny.
Well, it’s not as weird as me receiving emails with people thinking I’m Elfman, for God sakes, I’m a girl. They seem to think that Elfman’s email addy must have “Boingo” in it, (yeah sure). I get asked about “my niece” Jenna Elfman, why “I” don’t regroup and start another band, it wouldn’t kill these people to take a look at my profile to see I’m not Elfman, would it.
Erika,
You may use my feeble stab at humor towards Ryan all you want; it is actually a refrence to INVASION OF THE BODY SNATCHERS.
As for the email to Ryan, it would be wrong, but have you every thought of impersonating Elfman?… At least for a while… it would be funny for you, but not for Carmela I guess.
Nat of the gnat people
The reason I posted the email was not to infer that I am Danny Elfman, which I am sure as hell not.
It was that Carmela was emailing the person who runs this site — namely me — and offering her services to create a better site!!
That’s like walking up to a guy and offering to have sex with his girlfriend!
Ryan
lol. Well, of course your not Elfman. I’s just playin’ with ya’. Elfman has work to do!
Gnat – oh, the Body Snatchers! Yes, I just met them last week; lovely people, simply wonderful. A bit grabby and foul-mouthed at times, as well being disciples of Neil Diamond, but hey, we can’t hold that against them, can we?
Ryan- I was told by the Pod People that the lease is up. Yes, I’m sorry to inform you that RuPaul wants her body back now, as well as those stilettos you borrowed from her a few months back. Sorry, buddy…I’m just the messenger…

Walking up to a guy and offering to have sex with his girlfriend.
Sex with poultry.
A lotta weird things go on here – we are truly a Darkened People.
Dobbs says ‘Weird – the Lot of ya’. Nope. We’re DARKENED.
Turn the lights off Dobbs, and all. And grab your pitchforks. Invite other people into your pods.
Uh oh. A knock at the door….
Well if the strange fans that sending you emails haven`t understand that you aren`t him (Danny as you all now) I suggest that you put in a picture on you self because there`s already a picture on him (Elfman ofcourse) and if they don`t get it by then let have some fun with it by the way have you met him because if you are going to do that i can recommend you to tell him these little things
Punctuation is a good thing.
yaes, punkchewashun’s a guud thingg. (But spelling actually mattering? Perish the thought!)
-Aerikkae
There’s no reason to put my picture on the site — emails sent to me via this site are 90% tagged with the subject line:
THIS E-MAIL IS NOT GOING TO DANNY ELFMAN.
I do that by coding that into the HTML.
So naturally people don’t even figure that out for themselves.
Ryan
what has happened to this discussion board?

No i believe i said ‘you’re all suspect — the lot of ya.’ Weird? Most defintely. What’s the matter with being WEIRD? Just another word. Once you accept the various euphemisms, believe me — you’ll feel so much better. At this point, im too weird for anyone in my entire town. Not even people weirder than myself find me acceptable…which i find to be ENTIRELY unfathomable. Can you imagine being the misfit of misfits? It’s funny. but in the end, no matter how weird you are — what it all boils down to is the same substsances we all have in common, humanwise, and this transcends any form of reclusive behavior and/or glorification of being darkened or whatever word makes your heart sing Streisand. Just because you and someone else are pretty much identical in the aspect of being a weirdo doesnt grant a friendship or whatever…we’re all still people…well, some of us, anyway.As a sidenote, may i say that i reinforce my soapbox with stainless steel. To all of you out there who never made the cut with the group of weirdos out there in school, i salute you. I grew up partly in Zephyrhills, folks, Small Florida town where weirdos are as rare as rednecks in NEW YORK CITY. But i digress, who cares…
Yup, Dobbs – what you said. Weird is fine, and we do as weird does. Just as suspect is what suspect does.
Zephyrhills huh. You should try a small town in New Zealand – our whole damn COUNTRY is probably as big as one of your states
Toby.
“Just because you and someone else are pretty much identical in the aspect of being a weirdo doesnt grant a friendship or whatever…”
Dobbs – I’m assuming, by that comment, that you are implying something along the lines of this: friendship requires more than simply saying, “Hey, I like Danny Elfman film scores and am a social misfit…you like DE film scores and are also a social misfit…now we’re friends,” correct? Thus, using that explanation, we’re all (meaning the DE fans on this board) acquaintances here? On a sidenote, I was a misfit of misfits in high school…yep, rejection by the posse of “band geeks” (whom the remaining 95% of the school avoided like the plague anyway…) is a great confidence builder.
