I get a namecheck in the hometown rag
May. 16th, 2009 10:28 pmI read the Marblehead Reporter each week online. One of the highlights is Dawn Bucket's column "Up For Air". It's too long to explain why "Dawn Bucket" is a good Marblehead nickname, so we'll gloss over that.
A few weeks ago Dawn mentioned that she was looking for a bumper sticker to put on the cars of egregious cellphone yappers-while-driving. I emailed her and suggested something. Well, I won the prize for the week. Now if I were only on the way to Marblehead to collect. I don't get namechecked there often, but my brother's been namechecked in the Reporter several times. We're not quite even.

I'm sorry you're missing the trip,and even sorrier for the reason. Get well soon.
