Um, I got band sweetheart (yeah, I was in band. Colour guard, to be exact). And I got to walk down the football field with the band president, who happened to be my best friend Dustin. Ahh, it was great.

  Oh, okay...

  RockLine is, I think, a nationwide broadcast.  The host interviews artists and showcases their music.  I used to listen on weekends...

When I was in 4th grade, I won this art prize, and my painting got exhibited at NJPAC (New Jersey Performing Arts Center) in downtown Newark in 2000, and then my painting got flashed above Times Square as part of an electronic exhibit of the best youth art in the Tristate Area.

In October of 2005, I was interviewed in the newspaper about my Carolina Circle Mall weblog. That really bumped the traffic up.

Thank you! Your accomplishment is pretty cool too.

I was also the youngest person ever to be published in our literary magazine, and the first person ever to edit both the newspaper and the literary magazine at my town's high school.

Talking about that sorrow evening, was Pete or Chris there?

Some of the jokes I have mentioned been used on many BBC Comedy Radio Shows.
