Next: The Inauguralleycat on a T.V. near you!

A funny thing happened today.

I've been prepping for my Inaugural Day race assiduously and I get an e-mail from a reporter with the Montgomery Co. Gazette who has seen my blog about the race and is interested in interviewing me about it and alleycat racing in general.

It was a short little piece that was remarkably balanced and fair and they even sent a photographer to take a picture. My fifteen! Thank you very much.

Tonight, I get an email from the sports anchor at WUSA9 in DC who wants to talk to me about the race, which she read about on the paper's website.

Crazy!

Oh, wait, I think I have Matt Lauer on the phone!

You wouldn’t describe yourself as “babyfaced”, would you DemonCats?

Brad Pitt...

was recently photographed with a technique that shows every flaw in his face.

My regular photographs do that without any special photo techniques!

No, I wish I could even maybe say "baby-assed"...

but years or riding in jeans and cargo shorts have left my rear looking more like Mickey Rourke!

Demoncats

Are we going to see you show up on the parade route weaving through the crowds and jumbotrons?

No Sir!

My race is taking the riders away from that Mayhem downtown, into Rock Creek Park and maybe up to my house in Kensington.

Would be the fourth race I had end at my house.

Fair and balanced?

CQRanking.com, you complete me.

Yes!

Usually reporters covering alleycats tend to emphasize the “danger” that a bunch of courier, going full blast in live traffic.

The reporter who did the piece in my paper got several perspective in her story.

You can read it on the blog, as I scanned the article.

My interview on TV was canceled today, but rescheduled for Monday! Fame must WAIT!
