I'm in the Newspaper!
« on: September 29, 2006, 12:27:23 pm »
BUT, I'm kind of mad cause I told the reporter that I only found ONE place on the internet where people could share similar experiences with me and I gave her the name of this website and everything. I guess it makes a better story the way she wrote it, but whatever. My 15 seconds of fame are over   :(

Very cool Scott!!!  I know working for a prosecutor's office how the media can miss things that you think are important!!!  But now, I almost have sympathy for it, as that ability to discern what's more important seems to have diminished in my own mind.  Now, get us on Oprah's favorite things episode since you have the media pull!   ;)
