    I have been on television.

    An internationally televised program running in syndication, so you may see it sometime in the future again if you did not see it when it originally ran this past January.

    I submitted a videotape to America's Funniest Home Videos last October of me and my friend riding an extreme "reverse-bunjee jump" attraction at Wisconsin Dells. You are strapped into a small cockpit and shot 300 feet (30 stories) straight up into the air in about 2 to 3 seconds flat. A camera is secured in the cockpit of the ride for people to buy tapes of their excursion.

    Nothing out of the ordinary right? Well what made our ride special is my friend is 6ft 3 and 280 lbs, and was so terrified when riding this ride (he rode it because I rode it and he did not want to chicken out while on vacation) that he hyperventilated and screamed and cried calling for his mommy. All of it was caught on tape.

    The AFV producers loved it so much they put it on the air. It did not win money, but it made the program. The host paraphrased it best when the clip was ran. He said:

    We call this... the feminizer.

    It was priceless.

    I got on TV as an apostate dub on TV about, oh, 5 years ago. It was a 45 minute BBC type show about current affairs, subject matter - "Jehovahs Witlesses and blood transfussions". I got a whole 7 minutes of screen time and managed to get a couple of good points in and raise one idea that the interviewer asked a dub spokesperson at Ozzie headquarters. So I was gratified. Managed to slip in a bit about false prophecy too.

    Kick em where they live.

    It was about twenty years ago...

    I worked third shift and so was home during the daytime. A field separated my apartment from one of the local TV stations. One spring day when the wind was a little stiff, I was out there flying a kite with my step-daughter. The TV station sent over a camera crew and "interviewed" us. they wanted to know all my secrets: "Uh.... just let the string out a little at a time" ... "It's all in the wrist" ... "Don't get cocky".... "I wanna thank my momma, my publicist..."

    It showed up that night on the 6 o'clock news. Up 'till now, it's been my only claim to fame. *wink*

    bwahahaahaha, make the most of it huh.

    I just remembered when I almost got on TV when I was a JW. I had just come off the service after working with one of the anointed. She, the dear soul, asked me to come back to her house for something to eat and then we would go out on the service again. When we turned the corner the whole TV crew where outside her house! I stood back and let her go, it turned out her rebellious son had made quite a name for himself in the "Boxing" proffesion, she knew nothing of it but all camera's where on her outside while the TV interveiwed the son inside the house. LOL..she was horrified at her sons "violent" career and her ott reaction was all caught on camera.
