In the newspaper...how I felt like "The Jerk"

Navin Johnson: "The new phone book is here! The new phone book is here!"

Harry Hartounian: "Boy, I wish I could get that excited about nothing."

Navin Johnson:  "Nothing? Are you kidding? Page 73 - Johnson, Navin R.! I’m somebody now! Millions of people look at this book everyday! This is the kind of spontaneous publicity - your name in print - that makes people. I’m in print! Things are going to start happening to me now."
Steve Martin, The Jerk





So, while we are talking about the "media week" from this month, here is another link. The Dallas Morning News profiles area people in a section called "Our Town", and featured me! It was so crazy and fun to see how they took my words and ideas and made them seem...well, interesting! :) A staff photographer came out to my house in November and took some photos, too. What a ball!

Seeing my name in print reminds me a lot of this scene from a movie I love, The Jerk...
Things are gonna start happening now! :) Hilarious!
(and how much do I love Steve Martin? He is on twitter now and is oh-so-funny!! http://twitter.com/#!/SteveMartinToGo)


 Here is the clip...I wish I could edit it but its straight off YouTube so please advise
that the end has a PG-13 swear word :)
