In black and white…

OK.  SO now I can say we’re in print.  The team.  Names and everything.

While the article is accurate I’m of course disappointed with how i was quoted.  My quote, was prefaced by a lengthy explanation.  Has Forrest nudged up close to the law?  The FBI seems to think so.   But if you come at it a different direction (which I prefer to) relics are just things, and if we decide that they are part of history..isn’t it vital to have  that history on display, and not “In the dark”?

 

Like any story, there are inaccuracies… minor details, but the story itself is a decent (if ever so slightly blurred) polaroid of a guy I, and possibly my group, have come to somewhat revere.  Not because he made piles of money and wears owns a cowboy hat.  But because he OWNS that cowboy hat.  His terms, always.  he’s respectful, arrogant, brilliant and generous all at the same time.

 

Go do something.  Seriously.  Go do something.  Want some of my notes?  Fine.  Get out there.  Grab a couple people and go look.  It’s out there. And dont let the lead paragraph fool you.  

 

It’s over a million.
