My friends, as we are about to start our 10th season tomorrow, I have to tell you that I am a part of one of the luckiest families in the entire world.Throughout my entire life, I've experienced times that were great, times that were good, times that were OK, times that were bad & times that were horrible.Our family has always believed in God to carry us through the worst moments of our lives. Ever since we lost our father a decade ago, that has never been more true.
If you fall short on your ambitions, just collect yourself, think for a while & try again. As Jim Valvano said, "Don't give up, don't ever give up". Stuart Scott's family absolutely would agree with him even though Stu passed away recently.
As I just said recently, my brother Andrew's now working at Little Caesar's after he got laid off at The Melting Pot working there four days a wk. (Wed.-Sat.). Yours truly is working as the Richmond MMA Examiner besides doing this blog. Hey, several GS hosts past or present also have had multiple jobs, including Todd Newton, Drew Carey, Wayne Brady & Steve Harvey.
I have been working at Examiner for about six yrs. & I was THIS close to leaving them. But my mom got me to look carefully at the suggestions the editorial team offered me & I now realized I have to add a photo or video to each of my Examiner articles if they are to be published. Unlike this blog, I'm trying to make money there.
I first started commenting on game shows when FlashGames had a message board back in '03. That could've been my only yr. talking about the GS world because I had a drowning scare in Apr. '03 while I was on a Carnival cruise to the Bahamas. Also that yr., I joined Game Show Forum, but I shortly took heat from them for inappropriate posts & I decided to leave the forum. In Summer '04, I had a negative reaction to wisdom teeth surgery & it threatened my life. These days, I'm experiencing my own rd. of "The Biggest Loser"- as a guy who stands 5'4", I'm about 30 lbs. overweight.
I began this blog on a whim one day while I was at VCU in '06. Many people didn't give me a chance for this blog to succeed. But just about a yr. into GSK's life, I even got free stuff from GSN, including screener copies of their shows; I don't get such stuff from them these days. And some of those folks who I've known from GS Forum have even commented on this blog such as Zach Horan. We do whatever it takes to talk about the GS world.
To celebrate our 10th Anniv., I'm planning to join twitter in addition to facebook. I would enjoy taking part in the "You Decide" shows that "Price"& "Deal" do. And if my luck continues, I might even win some cash &/or prizes in some sweepstakes.
Until tomorrow morning, please remember to stay safe & healthy & take great care of your pets. God bless you all!
