2 Minutes of Fame
Dear brother Andrew is the manager of a Good Will store.
He used to work at Barnes and Noble (meaning I got a nice discount on books!) but Good Will isn't a bad job either. (Every once in a while someone will donate something really cool (Like a two foot square foam core mounted replica of the Miles Davis "Kind of Blue" Album) and Dear Brother Andrew will call me up and say "Hey sister dear, do you want first dibs on a enlarged foamcore print of Miles Davis' 'Kind of Blue' for $2?"

It's not the same as a 30% book discount - but it's still gosh darn nice!

So . . . a couple months ago Andy's store got a pretty neat donation of a WWI family scrap book. It has postcards, letters from a soldier, family pictures, and historical artifacts. “I still can't believe they meant to donate this," says brother dear, "this has to be an accident.”

So, Dear Brother Andrew has been holding onto the album for four months, trying to find the family. Today, the media got ahold of the story and decided to interview him. Brother Andy, not expecting a news crew to show up, was unshaven and dressed in his blah-est work clothes - - so just before the cameras started rolling, he pulled some stuff off the Good Will rack and changed into a suit (smart boy! He picked well -- you'd never know it was a Good Will outfit!!)

If you are so inspired, you can read/watch the segment of my now famous brother and the scrapbook here. (Notice how they spelled his name three different ways . . . none of them correctly!)

And if you just happen to know something about Ernest Page - or are a long lost grandchild - Please leave a comment!!
