Today was a great day! Interview at The Buffalo News went great. The newsroom was huge! I couldn’t believe it. I almost kind of didn’t want to leave. Hope it works out- I think it will.
Went and met with Dick Gallagher after, the guy who founded Western New York High School Sports. He is such a great guy. Met with him downtown at this place called Terrace House, a sheltoneer he founded for the chemically dependent to turn around their lives. I really want to help him with his magazine and it sounds like he wants me to write a few feature stories.
Dick’s such a great guy, he kept talking about God and how he was working for him. And he really is. He does so much for everyone, he puts probably 18 hours a day into staying fit, God, his work, and the high school sports, which is a job in its own. What a splendid guy. You can tell he realizes his own mortality now, but whatever happens to him, he knows he’s been doing God’s work. Guys like that are great. He’s got that twinkle in his eye. Special guy, he’s a blessing.
Got more internship stuff to do, setting up an interview with Niagara Gazette. Then write what probably will be my last Bills story. But you never know. The whole family went to Syracuse today so just hanging out here. Going to rake sticks and do some landscaping stuff early with Tony tomorrow. The next few days should be fun!
