A (so far) one off Ask An Alex Special held by [[Alex_Steacy|Alex Steacy]] on October 18th 2008 at 8:33pm EDT from his bedroom in Toronto.

==Start of AAA Live==
At the 5th Year Anniversary Screening of Loading Ready Run there was to be a live stream, for those who could not make the event at the Eric Martin Pavilion. LRR Crew Member [[James Turner|James]] posted an hour before that the UStream could not be done as there were no available Internets.

Alex, who was also going to watch the stream as he could not attend the screening, had planned to do an AAA Live previously. When he saw James' post he replied saying he would stream an AAA Live.

He was surprised by how quickly the viewers racked up. Alex drew live caption drawings to illustrate some ideas.

Alex left to go to the local store to get a drink leaving viewers with a two song musical interlude.

While Alex goes out to buy a drink, viewers prepare to joke about someone walking across the screen to his wardrobe while he was away. 

To cover their scheme several lines of random letters were used to fill the chat window. He doesn't buy it.

It is commented that Ask An Alex can be rearranged as "Ask Anal Ex". Anal is censored and this leads to Alex and the viewers trying to find words that aren't censored by UStream.

Every time Alex went off screen viewers wrote: "Oh he's gone/again." When Alex came back in shot: "Oh he's back again." Alex believed they were having Streaming troubles.

kkief02 and Elomin Sha scuffle over the use of blue text. kkief02 wants to be the only one to use one particular blue. Other blue is used despite there being no difference.

When asked if he would marry any of the viewers Alex puts tape around his next to become a parishioner. Master Gunner wanted to be married as did two others but Alex only kept the offer open for a few seconds. In the end all 27 viewers (25 males, 2 females) became his husbands and wives.

Alex shows off his various sound effects and screams, including [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DSEhksLZYi4 Yakety Sax song sung with the word Bagel]. He also mentions how hard it is to get white noise.

Alex himself appears to lag while copying one of his sound files.
