Wow! My jaw hit the floor at the convenience store. I got up this morning to pick up a copy of The Sun News just to see what Lisa Fleisher had written about me.
I was thinking I would get a few lines in the Local & Regional section. Heck, I would have really been excited if I were to appear in the Money section, but NO! OH NO!
I couldn't believe it. I was on the cover....the Front Page! My name was above the fold. I picked up one, two, three, four copies of the paper and my name was right there on everyone of them.
I wasn't dreaming. It was for real. Yessir, the front page. Life is so gooooooood! I wanted to let out a yell right there in the convenience store, but I refrained. I didn't even holler when I got outside or even whil driving home in my truck.
But when I got home, I hollered and danced, kissed my wife on the cheek and danced some more. She was just as amazed at my story being on the front page as I was. My son, who can't even read yet was excited and gave his daddy a big ol' high-five! What a day!
So, here's to you Lisa Fleisher and to all of your colleagues at The Sun News. You have given my little broadcast company a much needed shot in the arm. The story was accurate and on-the-money. I especially loved the phrase...."unceremoniously booted". I'm gonna have to remember that one.
