So here’s how it started. I’m sitting at home on Thursday evening watching something, a Star Trek rerun I think, on TiVo when I get a telephone call from my in-laws in Ohio. Turn on ABC News, I’m told. And, even more confusing, I apparently was on the news.
As it turns out, my Liberty Papers post on the Boston “terror scare”, which had gotten a lot of traffic from Google News all day Thursday, had been picked up, in a sense, by ABC and a screen shot of the final line of the post, along with my name was broadcast nationwide Thursday evening.? News Channel 8 here in Virginia rebroadcasts the ABC News every evening so I was able to watch it later that night.
It was a surreal experience in some ways. And pretty cool. And, outside of my in-laws and one other person in Ohio that I know of, I don’t think anyone else noticed.

Can I have your autograph?
