Awesome, Rob!!! Congratulations… very well deserved.
Great news. Rob should produce a sitcom that parodies the C’ville Town Council meetings. It would be the best thing on TV since Night Court
Hey, did Channel 29 win any awards? There is an AP story they ran today about the teacher fired in West Point, VA. Accompanying the story is a stock photo of cadets in formation at the USMA in West Point! Can make it up!
The government needs to put a stop to the horrible “public school to illiteracy to mainstream journalist” pipeline!
