I know, it's been awhile

The past few months have really been stressful, in May I was very sick and came very close to dying. BUT, I'm all better now and ready to get things moving.

In late January I was contacted by the Alexandria Daily Town Talk, it's the local newspaper in Alexandria, LA a town outside of Ball, where HR died. It's also the town I went to High school in.

Anyway, I got a call from the Managing Editor of the paper to do a story. I spoke with this guy at some length. I was told a reporter would be in contact. Well, its been 5 months and I am still waiting for that call.
So, you know me, we start e mailing the paper. nothing
then a response
then nothing
Then mom sent a letter to the PUBLISHER, hehehe, well that got someone to respond on a Saturday afternoon, no less!
well then, I get a return e mail saying "DELETED without being read" oh, boy was I angry. Well as of now mom has written yet another e mail to the publisher and today I find out that the paper has been "google-ing" HR's name. Hmm. they spent well over 30 mins looking at the information.
Keep your fingers crossed!
I let them have it because I have been asking for over 2 years to do a story. I told them they were basically covering up just like the rest of them by ignoring us. If I get no response, I'll post my mother's letter to the publisher. It's a freaking novel and wealth of information.

Take a look at http://www.ireport.com/docs/DOC-37523
Cover up in Rapides Parish LA?

So have a wonderful week and stay tuned to the next chapter. Will they or Won't they UnCover the cover up in Rapides Parish?

I have to have some humor in all this or I'll go crazy from the insanity of it all.
