A Christmas Miracle

There's an unfounded rumor that's been going around for nearly 25 years that I never pick up a check.

Ya see, in our business we get a lot of free stuff, and because of the nature of what we do, sometimes people don't let you pay.

So, in the spirit of truth and the spirit of the season, I present to you what some of my close friends Steve, Ken, Jim, Earl, Doc, Bruce, Nick, Brian, Clay and Ron would call a Christmas miracle: I picked up a check.

The occasion was lunch to thank the best staff in the business: Stefani, of course, Fly, Dana, Bobby, Krista and (not pictured) Kayla, Dave, Will and Ramone.
