damn, that threw me off! i mean, i saw the title of the video, and i was still surprised when it happened! ha!
i really liked that they did an interview, too. good to hear he's clean - hopefully something comes of this. anyone know if there's a facebook page
yet?

It will honestly make my week if something good happens to this man so he's able to get back on his feet. I only wish I lived near him to help him out
personally, but since I can't I've just been posting it everywhere and telling people to repost, hoping it gets passed along. Looks like it's working
- when I originally watched it, it only had 300 views. Now it's 130,000+
At least the internet is good for something, and there are some decent people using it.

I posted this on Action Recon as well and its been getting crazy traffic today. I read an update on him that a radio show in OH is going to have him
on as a guest and who knows perhaps something good will come of that.
OK, so those first three posted above are just kinda intro pieces.
some dude is posting the show piece by piece here: http://www.youtube.com/user/Bunomous
I'll post the best clips as I hear 'em.

I showed this to my girl last night and she was beside herself.
Sadly because I think it makes her think of her dad who let his life slip up almost this bad over the years from alcoholism. He was the founding
member of a fairly famous local band in the 70s and owned his own business and everything just went to hell for the family.
I'm all teary-eyed, this is amazing. I'm so happy. From 300 views to 130,000 to The Today Show?! Unbelievable!!!!!!!
I had a conversation the other day with Mark about how I don't understand why people put so much negative energy into the world via the internet. You
know, hiding behind a computer screen on their critical soapboxes being rude and cruel for the sake of it. I don't understand that mentality. And I
said that if people put that kind of energy into something GOOD, things would be better.
This is the perfect example. This shit needs to happen more often.

in this clip they get into something i've been wondering about... how does someone with a history of addiction deal with being so suddenly thrust into
the spotlight and the pressure of all these newfound responsibilities?
"God knows, nothing would be better right now than some Seagram's 7." Amen, brother Ted!
The people from this station have said that they're going to help him go through all the offers and put together a plan on how best to deal with
everything. Nice to hear that they're not just bringing him in, getting the ratings, then being done with him. Same with this friend of his he's
referred to, Alfred Battle. I hope he's a true friend and doesn't try to take advantage of him.
