Associated Press in New York did a phone interview with me a couple months ago.

I didn't really expect it would go anywhere but they ran the story today in several newspapers. The link to the article can be found here:

On Monday, I did a phone interview with Associated Press in LA, who wants to observe us doing a trashout. I don't know what effect the NY story will have on the interview with LA so I guess I'll contact the reporter and see what she wants to do. She's already aware of the NY interview.

How amazing all of this media attention is to me! I almost feel like I hit some kind of jackpot. How cool is that?

Anyway, I'm doing a little dance on this end and just wanted to share with everyone. [Thank you, Jessica!]

Cool Story! Congrats, dance away and add another of those annoying banannas!

I was just reading the boat story thread also.

Thanks, REODayton!

I would add 50 bananas but people might think I'm getting a little carried away. LOL

I am jazzed, tho. Also, I just realized [unless I missed something] that in other newspapers where the story was run there is a much longer article with additional quotes by me. This may have been something of an abbreviated version due to lack of space.

Okay, now. Just one more banana and I'm done. I promise.

Allow me to do this for you:



and finally a

The Washington Post had the full story as well (you have to click the 2 at the bottom of the first page to see it though!).

You little media star you!

CanDo, you're awesome. I appreciate you celebrating with me!

Thanks a "bunch" for posting all the moonwalking bananas for me. LOL, yes. Pun intended.

I thought I might have missed something at the Washington Post so thanks for letting me know the original post was okay.

Okay, I think I'm going to take a nap now. All this excitement has worn me out and made me tired. Gotta be up bright and early for another trashout.

Good Luck and Good Fortunes ~ more to the point good luck collecting on everything that is owed you.

Thanks, Pinehurst RE Guy. You must also be reading my other posts.

It's a crazy industry right now, is it not?
