Guest guest Posted September 5, 2005 Report Share Posted September 5, 2005 Well , I attribute your not being dastardly to not having met me earlier in your life. I really think the local NBC affiliate is the way to go. e mail them and tell them what's up, how you NEED the implant, and NBC is asking you for a video. If you could afford a camcorder, you could afford a second CI. Can they possibly help you out. I'm willing to bet they will drive to your place and make a tape. Jeesh, even I've been on local TV doing a spot on Cochlear Implants. Three times - they love someone who is articulate, knows what she wants, and doesn't look better than the reporter. You might have a problem with Gimlet, though. She's cuter than a LOT of TV personalities I've seen. E mail your local NBC affiliate, explain the situation, ask for the Public Service person, and see what they do. They kill for chances to do " human interest stories " . What is more appealing that a man and his pooch? A man and his pooch asking for help to become self sufficient because Uncle Sam refuses to help him. Human and Dog vs. Mean Government. According to a study, the 3 top selling categories of books are books about Abraham Lincoln, Doctors and Dogs. So if someone wrote a story about Lincoln's Doctor's Dog, they'd have a best seller. You have 2 out of 3. You need a Doctor to do the implant, and you have a dog. Tell them your middle name is Lincoln, and I think you're a shoe in. Might even end up with your own TV show. Stranger things have been known to happen. GO FOR IT. E mail the TV station right now. RIGHT NOW. DON'T MAKE ME HAVE TO SEND PHOENIX TO NUDGE GIMLET TO NUDGE YOU!!! The Original No , I just aint that dastardly as some. LOL But I like the idea of going to the local NBC station! I used to live just blocks from it in Portland. Friends who have cams? Am looking! Anyone on list who has one? LOL Become my lifelong friend and give me one! LOL *---* *---* *---* *---* *---* And Then There's... Early to rise and early to bed Makes a man healthy and wealthy and dead. -- Thurber & Gimlet (Guide Dawggie) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
