My first call of the day starts out with Green Day blasting at 5:48 AM (I forgot I had maxed out the ringer the day before)
Dave: Sorry to wake you so early
Me: Its okay, whats going on?
Dave: I have no dress shirts
Me: What?
Dave: I have no dress shirts
Here I am thinking, and you are calling me why? Fed-Ex can't get it to you in an hour
Me: Dave, go to the front desk and they can help you get a cab to a store.
Dave: Good idea...
CANDIDATES!
All is well, dress shirt located and Dave went down to the delegation breakfast. He joins John Courage, Rick Bolanos and the other candidates to catch up with old friends and make new connections. They are told the event is being covered by CSPAN and that CBS and Faux news have said they will show up. One station as far away as Japan is covering the event with Sen. Max Cleland. They are told they each get approximately 15 seconds at the mike (I laugh here, what can you say in 15 seconds? Time yourself).
He said that its going well and they are all having a blast. I will be posting updates through out the day here and on our site.
Let me know if someone catches the Band of Brothers on a mainstream feed somewhere, it would be great if they got the coverage they deserve.
For fun, what would you say in your 15 seconds? :)
