Not sure if this counts, but with the low thresholds of this thread so far, maybe these add up to something. Been interviewed on/provided political commentary on local and statewide newspapers, blogs, radio, and television, and being a part of the home-state delegation for the DNC that got me on some national coverage too.

^if you have to name yourself...
12/27/2012 8:22:12 PM
Indeed.
12/27/2012 8:55:00 PM
Like Supplanter, I'm going to name myself as well because of the low bar.My son was on an episode of NBC's The Doctors and as his mother, I was of course filmed and interviewed. He got a full 12 minutes of fame.
12/27/2012 10:51:19 PM
Yeah, the self naming started on page 1. Everyone has had their 15 minutes at some point or another.

If we're naming ourselves...I'm the one who killed Naomi Hunter's parents. I was young then and couldn't bring myself to kill her too. I felt so bad that I decided to take her with me. I raised her like she was my own blood to soothe my guilty conscience. Even now she thinks of me as her brother...From the outside, we might have seemed like a happy brother and sister. But every time I looked at her, I saw her parents' eyes staring back at me.
12/27/2012 11:24:18 PM
Did they contact you, or you contacted them?
12/27/2012 11:31:12 PM
I was contacted.Thymus transplantation had been in the national news around that time and the show and Duke PR had been in contact with one another about doing a segment for a new show (The Doctors had yet to air at that time.). Duke PR then contacted our doctor and asked her if she thought any of her transplant patients would be good for the show. Dr. Markert named us and then Duke PR contacted us asking if we'd be interested in doing an interview.

I worked as a traffic reporter (MetroNetworks/Westwood One) on radio (and few tv reports) here in the Triangle for about 4 years from 99-end of 2003. It was fun for awhile. Now as a hobby I am one of 10 nationwide beta testers for a company that makes police scanners. It ain't much but *shrug*

He should feel bad because his design is wrong. Both styles are vinegar based.This thread is now about barbecue.
7/30/2018 9:53:26 PM
^No, no they're not. You're thinking of Lexington BBQ, which, yes, it is vinegar based. But I don't consider Lexington BBQ as being western NC BBQ. Western NC BBQ is smoked, shredded, usually served without having any sauce mixed in. You do the mixing with whatever sauce is at the table. One of my favorite western NC BBQ joints unfortunately does not make their own sauce. They use Cattleman's, which is ok, but I wish they would be more original.

I have no desire to be famous. Never have. But I do want to be good enough at something that would warrant becoming famous. I've been thinking maybe I should do it just to prove to myself that I can.[Edited on July 30, 2018 at 11:27 PM. Reason : like Leslie and Ben on Parks and Rec. they were too good, it was inevitable they would get bigtime]
