All it will take is...
Lawyers, guns, and money!

I used to stalk WZ and it turned into a wonderful gift that kept on giving. If you are a fan you should go read about some of my WZ experiences on My Blog
Speaking of brushes with fame, and germane to the thread, when calling various news organizations trying to keep the GOP House story alive, who should answer the phone but Brian Wilson!? No, not the Brian Wilson from the Beach Boys; Brian Wilson from Fox news. It surprised me but I rolled with it. Brian Wilson is as nice as he seems. He gave me a good 3-5 minutes of discussion before I released him from captivity. I told him how frustrated I was with the energy situation and the uneven reporting in general. He told me there were problems covering the story but they were doing their best. He was cool. Getting through to him kept me stoked and I was able to work the phone and email a lot longer just on the adrenaline rush from having Brian Wilson answer the phone. Most people don't know who he is but it gave me a huge thrill.
It reminded me of meeting Sam Brownback in the hall way on an Eighth Grade DC trip and I acted like I had Beatlemania. The kids thought I was crazy to go practically speechless over someone they had never heard of.
