Strangest day ever

[Alicia Leonard]

Deep Fried.

It doesn't confer any disrespect to the caller but since we're in the South I decided it fit

I also want everyone to understand if this had been a regular source that was willing to go on record I would have never posted a single word about it.

I've just never received an anonymous concealed call like that and want to vent to my friends that it felt a little strange but I would always be welcoming to another conversation

thanks NAY NAY

Probably just that my translator is broken....but I still have no idea where this was going. Dang I hate it when that happens.

:funn:Yes, I love it. An extended article based on nothing but anonymous sources and rumors, BRILLIANT. I swear I keep hearing the twilight zone theme:shock:

Hey...It never stopped Jayson Blair at the NY Times! LOL!!!

I have to admit I had one of the strangest things happen to me today and I've decided to share. Because I write for a local paper I can't comment on a lot of threads, especially in the political lounge because thats my beat. I have to keep my opinions to myself on local races and I work very hard to be an unbiased writer and give everyone a fair shake.

I think you should feel free to share....its just us....we won't tell anyone

You spelled Jayson right, this qualifies you to work at the NYT. Kidding!!

Thanks guys for letting me vent yesterday. I'm feeling like reality has settled back in and it's business as usual.

Thanks to everyone for the support and nice messages. It's wasn't really scary, not at all, just a little different and just one part of this new career I'm still getting acclimated to doing I think it's all these theories getting throw around that freaks me out a little more than anything. But you know what they say, where there is smoke you usually find fire.

I guess you could say it comes with the job title of reporter. I do appreciate the caller, just never had one like that before

Everyone have a great day and enjoy the beautiful weather

This thread is worthless without more information or gossip.

I guess this makes you "official." I was going to say "seasoned," but worried how that would work with "Deep Fried." Gotta go, I just made myself hungry.

Today, I received my first "Deep Throat" phone call ever. The caller was nice, well spoken and even with a concealed voice they sounded to be in their 20's. They mentioned this board as well.:shock:

They shared with me a conspiracy theory directly opposite of the one that gets posted a lot in the political thread. I did not ask to meet them as we have no parking garages nearby and I am a strict student of W&B.

I appreciate the nice things the caller had to say about my work and the paper I work for (they said they believed I am unbiased and that is why they called me) and I invited them to call me back at anytime.

I must admit I am still a little dazed from it. Who'd a thunk it. DFS is the epicenter of the conspiracy theorist union I promised I'd put the questions to the candidates as I interview them as I had already planned on letting them all go on the record about these rumors, but still, it was a little surreal.

Thanks for letting me share friends.

There is that new parking deck at Destin Commons if you need it!;-)
