Deep in my heart I know that.
But I mean I had NO CLUE they were going to put such a page 6 story pic on the front page.
The guy must have thought it was a pretty funny picture.
Ah man the library director was was proud of the publicity he got a ton of papers to give to everyone.

Perfect opportunity to tell one of my favorite stories. This happened to the guy who took my place when I moved out of my college apartment.
Tony grew up in the town my college was located in. His whole family lived there. He was an interesting dude who had a LOT to say about Huey Lewis and the News. Dude lived and breathed him some Huey Lewis. I once watched him speak about the album Sports for no less than 45 minutes.
Anyway, Tony was walking to class one day and saw a large group of people clustered around a stage. Someone on stage was beckoning people to speak into the microphone. Tony couldn't pass up this opportunity. He enthusiastically clambered onto the stage amongst cheers and began speaking about Huey Lewis and the News to the people gathered before him. He finished his diatribe and went about his business.
A few days later, Tony takes a bathroom break during a class located in the biggest lecture hall on campus. When he returns to his seat, there is a newspaper on his desk. Someone had circled an article and picture on the front page. It's a picture of Tony speaking into a microphone above the headline Tony Comes Out.
Turns out Tony was the first speaker at the campus "coming out of the closet" event. Tony is straight as can be.
The newspaper was available freely in every gas station and campus building in town.

Thanks for sharing that. Puts my situation in a much better perspective.
