I was the subject of a short piece on the weekend edition of the FOX9 newscast here in the Twins Cities:

It was flattering to be contacted by the station and have them ask if I’d do this. It’s too bad that MAD hadn’t announced it’s switch to bimonthly before they did the final editing. It’s also unfortunate that my braces make it sound like I have a worse lisp than The Music Man’s Winthrop Paroo.

Some of the quotes I give seem odd because the question the reporter asked me doesn’t proceed them. For example, the last comment I make about getting all my kids graduated and out of the house was in answer to the question “are you ever going to grow up?” to which my full response was “I hope not. If I can get all my kids out of the house and graduated without growing up I should be safe.”
