Hi Guys, sorry I haven't been around today.
Thanks for the kind words. Believe me, I'm still stunned dumbstruck by the whole thing. I don't remember any details of the phone call when Leslie Horton of GlobalTV called me at 1:00am in the morning, but apparently in my sleep stupor I gave people lots of entertainment. First, I almost missed hearing the phone ring. Then, I answer, they said, turn on the TV, because you're on TV. WHAT? Turn on the TV. Um .. OK. I'm not on a cordless phone. Put down the phone, pick up a cordless. Run to the family room. Now I can't find the remote. I'm fumbling around in a panic looking for the remote, checking the sofa cushions, etc.. Leslie Horton, picking up on the fact that I'm not really coherent, says, turn on the TV so we can all see you running around naked looking for your remote. I said, I'm not naked, I'm wearing boxers. As soon as I said it, I realized ...... not the brightest thing to say. I can hear laughter, lots of laughter. My one moment on TV, and what do I say, I'm not naked I'm wearing boxers.
Apparently I also at one point said that this "knocks my socks off" but I don't remember saying it at all.
So apparently you CAN win these things. Honestly, who knew?
