Wow, how time flies. My air date was approximately 13 years ago. Wow.

My two appearances were 17 years ago last week (December 7 & 10, 2000). Hard to believe it's been that long.

It's been almost exactly 12 years (I'll bet Notebook Boy has the exact date.) since I was notified I won the Million Dollar Buddy contest and would be going to Orlando to tape my show.
I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.
