Let me first say how stressed I get by being in front of a camera. I feel like I'm in a tsunami, and function like an illiterate at Harvard. Pete was very good and helped me to remember my name and why we were at the Wynnewood Train Station. He assured me that our news story would garner as much press, if not more, than the Japan earthquake. Hey, he's the official news media, don't they always tell the truth? (We can debate that at another time.)
We started out with the big sculpture at the train station, as part of it had fallen down. Yes. the earthquake was that big. No, of course, it wasn't, but the storm that had come through yesterday was a corker. So I'm out there re-building the rock sculpture still rattled by Pete's presence, the camera and the questions. Forget multi-tasking, I'm lucky that I don't knock the whole thing down and have to start from scratch.
I finally get something up, and took Pete to the Ginza Restaurant to touch-up that one. While he's filming me do my rock magic, a car pulls in and the lady driving stops me to ask if I'm "the one" who does the rock sculptures. Bless you Julia Weekes for praising my work and saving me from having to answer more of Pete's questions. Where did you say you wanted me to send your check? No, honestly, she just appeared out of the tsunami to help me make this an awesome video.
