Hope he's back at the track soon.
I know how you feel Travis.

I volunteered to interview him for an 8 pager my friend ran in New York about 10 years ago. He gave me exactly 10 minutes (which is 10 minutes longer than I thought I'd get). I figured I'd try and warm him up by talking about Brooklyn and the old neighborhood. We talked about that for almost a half hour and I never got my interview!

Guess that communications degree was a waste.
