 Friday, January 28, 2005 What a great day! I recorded Sunday's show, interviewing Gale Sayers, the legendary NFL Hall of Fame running back. We talked about his book, "I Am Third," which was the inspiration for the movie "Brian's Song." We discussed the lessons that movie taught about race relations, determination, overcoming setbacks, and family support. We talked about the "On A Roll" movie and how it can teach similar lessons. We also talked a lot of football! Producer Mike Ervin and I are such Bears fans that Mike decided to listen in on the interview and feed me suggestions for questions while we were recording. It was a great show. I was prepared with a lot of questions and designed a show-prep sheet using Mind Manager software. http://www.mindjet.com/us/. You'll be entertained by our discussion if you tune in on Sunday night.After the interview, Virginia Lanham from the Mississippi Press came over and intereviewed me for an article that will run on the front page of the paper on Monday. Today was very cold for us down here on the Mississippi Gulf Coast, but they wanted to take a picture down by the pier, so I rolled my chair ouside with no coat on to pose for the shot! I guess I was getting prepared for my trip to Boise, Idaho next week!
