I forgot the most important thing…happy #25 Mike, great having this every Friday.
LOL, I wasn’t that upset…my daughter was because she felt I was used, but I didn’t have anything posted that I was ashamed of….several people thought it showed me in a personal way that people could relate to. I was not aware that anyone at all in the Worcester network could see my site, but again, I didn’t have anything I would be ashamed of.
I know a number of college students have commented that they are really thrilled that I am on it and that they were happy my daughter had made a facebook page in her group with colleges for the campaign.
I think it is important to embrace technology and utilize it and if I connect with people I may not have ordinarily, that is great.
Scott, my daughters who are friends with me on my facebook did so voluntarily. They know I am not going to abuse their friend status. The girls are happy to have me on their friend list.
Anyway, I think you all are doing a great job on 508 and I check it out often. Good job.
btw, happy 25th
Thanks for the kind words!
My apologies to anyone who subscribes in iTunes and got the police radio call rather than 508–that must have been kinda creepy.
It’s fixed now. Details:

Thanks for continuing to post the little one for dial-up. I know it’s extra work, and I appreciate it! Congratulations on #25!
