Grandpa and Craig Ferguson
30 04 2009
About a month ago my dad called me and told me that him and my granddad were going to be in the states starting with LA and ending in Atlanta. Then my friend sent me these videos, pops didn’t mention what they would be doing in LA. This is my granddad on the late show with Craig Ferguson.

Falcons sign Sarah Jessica Parker!!!
30 04 2009Excuse this personal rant but why in the world did the Falcons sign Sarah Jessica Parker (John Parker Wilson). I mean he has the arm strength of a 4th grade girl scout, no disrespect to any 4th grade girl scouts. I do not mean to slight any of your throwing abilities by comparing you to Sarah Jessica Parker, I’m sorry. Seriously though the last good thing that came out of the University of Alabama was Joe Namath and that was 50 years ago!!! Oh yea and Go DAWGS!!!!!

Where is Asher Roth’s Publicist??
30 04 2009Now for the second time in two weeks rapper Asher Roth has allowed his mouth to get him in a little bit of trouble. First last week while he was in Rutgers, on his twitter page he wrote a tweet using the phrase “nappy headed hoes”. Obviously a poor joke made on his part in reference to the Don Imus’ controversy over a year ago. Now this was a bad joke but let’s be clear the guy isn’t racist. What really hurt him though was that after the apology he quickly posted after, he deleted both posts, the apology and the joke. The damage had already been done and by deleting both he appeared to be trying to hide from it.
A week passed by and now Mr. Roth is in the news again for some controversial comments. This time in an interview he used the term “black rappers”. Now I completely agree with everything that he is saying but he should have just left it at rappers no need to add the black in there. I’ll let you decide for yourselves though. Here is the link to the entire interview.

My 2 most important tips I learned about writing a news release:
- Grab the readers attention within the first couple of sentences.
- News release is not paid advertising
