Follow-up: Exciting News!

If you read my post title Exciting News!, you may be thinking I am posting my international travel itinery. I am not. But, soon. Like a few weeks/months soon.

But, I am about to tell you something bizzare.

My friend Bob just reminded me (thanks Bob! I'm glad I tell you strange stories and you help me connect them to even stranger connections, to say the least) that my boss heard Al Gore disucssing this situation, the two reportors who were captured and sentenced to 12 years in a N. Korean labor camp. Right before he spoke at an event on March 17 we were coordinating, Mr. Al was talking on the phone with an ambassador trying to rectify things whilst smaking his gum right beside my boss who was attempting to get him through a 500ish-book signing. This recollection just brought this freaky situation oh so close to home. I thought the world was just small in the Mormon land. Not so much.
