So by happenstance I go to the CBS website last Wednesday, in between getting posters printed for a show in Las Vegas and organizing name tags, signs and assorted items for a trade show in Berlin. Berlin, Germany, not Berlin, Ohio. One Berlin has people eating bratwurst, dancing to polkas and being served beer by big breasted women and the other one is in Germany. But I digress.
Anyhow as CBS always does they changed the rules and dates of when applications are due. This was Wednesday September 28 and the apps are due on Tuesday October 4. Of course I do what I usually do and figured the video would be the hardest part. The next thing I do is jump in my car and go to Wal Mart, only to have the young teenage employee girl with Blue and Orange hair and texting on her phone tell me they don't sell VCR tapes anymore. It didn't bother me that she was texting, it didn't even bother me that she couldn't decide on a hair color, rather that constant popping of her bubble gum and not even looking up at me when she answered my question. I am guessing she was an assistant manager working her way up.
So then I checked the website to see that we could use a different format. Well if you want to see the finished product send me your email I will send a copy which stars my youngest nephew Aidan Farmer age eight. He says stuff that eight years old don't uaually say, sort of like Brick from The Middle. Two weeks ago he was getting ready to run a one mile race with a group of K - 3 kids. At this event they shot off a cannon at the start of each race. The director called the kids in just before the start and explained how the race would start, where they should stand etc. He then asked if there were any questions and Aidan put his hand up and said, "Yeah, how much gun powder do you put into the cannon?" You can't make that crap up.
So anyhow the application is in and if you would like to see the tape, let me know and I will send it.
P.S. If you have any questions for Aidan, please let me know.
