It's kind of strange. I spent a good part of the day dealing with TV. A "News company" called us up wanting to do a national story on my families company. We had an initial interview with one of the producers. They asked quite a few questions, then said they wanted us to pay quite a bit of money to have the show streamed onto our website.
It turns out they do vanity infomercials that run on CNN Headline late at night. Why could they not just say, "We want Fred Thompson to do an Infomercial for you?" I hate people who waist my time.

Isn't it interesting how as the years go by, Bruce Sterling continues to rise in my estimation?
