. . . what have you done with my name? . . .


{no idea how long this link will last}


. . . when george albert smith
was young,
his deceased grandfather,
george a. smith,
appeared to him in a dream and asked,
"i would like to know
what you have done
with my name."
president smith responded,
"i have never done anything
with your name
of which you need be ashamed" . . .

. . . in the past couple of weeks,
just because of his last name,
my husband has twice been
asked to speak for or about mitt . . .

. . . bill wrote a letter to the editor
of the arizona republic . . .
{he does these kind of things late at night when he can't sleep}
{if you read his letter, please ignore the ridiculous comments that follow!}

. . . he had no idea it'd been published
in today's paper
until he received a phone call
from a channel 15 reporter
this afternoon . . .
. . . who requested an interview . . .
. . . because of bill's name . . .

. . . and i'll tell you what . . .
. . . if mitt ever asks bill the question,
"what have you done with my name?" . . .
. . . bill will honestly be able
to give the same answer
president smith gave ~
"i have never done anything
with your name
of which you need be ashamed" . . .

. . . reporter christopher sign and i
immediately bonded
because he loved my flowers . . .


. . . because of budget cuts,
he serves as both
photographer and reporter . . .
{trivia #1: he was the reporter who,
every day for four months,
covered the baseline killer story}
{trivia #2: bishop sherwood showed up at the same time ~
see his white shirted arm?}

. . . bill answered questions
for about twenty minutes . . .

. . . a short version of this story
will air tonight at ten . . .

. . . with the full version airing
tomorrow at five, six, and/or ten
depending on the news events
of the day . . .
