My 15 minutes of fame
« on: October 13, 2006, 11:14:47 AM »
Hey, I’m in the newspaper…and it’s not in the police blotter or most wanted section.

‘Legends”

Alexis got a couple of details wrong, but overall it’s a good article.  If the picture comes up (For some reason it doesn’t sometimes) ignore it, or at least promise not to laugh.

My 15 minutes of fame.  ;D

I figure she was under some constraints timewise and likely some space constraints, as well.  I gave her about 50 names and she probably used the first suitable ones (no cuss words, no threats, no inappropriate physical description, etc.) that she got.

Thanks, Creek.  No pic, but I'm not photogenetic anyhow.

I talked to her.  Boy, she sounded cute!!!

I got a pic when I dialed it in.  Here it is for those that didn't see it:

PM on the way.

Never met Walt/Coop Trawlaine (Yet.)  One of these times he's gonna drive over and join our Grumpy Lunch Bunch for one of our twice a month feasts.   BTW, anyone in the area is welcome to sit to food with us.), but we've corrresponded on the wire a bunch.

Another pard (Charlie MacNeil?) mentioned that Walt had read his book and was writing a review.  I sent Walt an e-mail and asked if he'd consider doing the same for me.  He sent back that he had just ordered my book and would be happy to do so when it arrived.  Great review.  If I can get my scanner working again, I'll post a copy of it for y'all to look at.
