Ok, that was awesome!

I'm was behind on my podcasts, so after returning from vacation on the 20th, I saw an email from Tim's assistant asking for my address to send me the water fountain I'd won. Confused, I went to this blog and then saw my name and Ross' comment. My wife and I then plugged the iPod into the stereo and listened to the podcast, finally understanding the water fountain/feature prize.

I am from Tallahassee, Florida, and while I do work for an integrated communications firm (where I've used many of Kem's communication tips when advising clients) I also lead a 20somethings ministry at our church called The Launch (www.TheLaunchCommunity.com), where I try to be as innovative as possible while still communicating as clearly as possible.

I was wondering why my blog hits doubled on August 14th..the power of the C2I namedrop! Thanks again for the water feature, I'll be sure to call and leave a message with it running in the background once I have it set up in my office next to my Dwight K. Schrute bobble head.

No, Tim, we have never met (Kem and I haven't either), and unfortunately we won't at Innovate this year. Days off are scarce in a new job, but I'll be there in spirit. Thanks again, keep up the great work, and I'll hear you next week!

Hello Northerners, I listen to your beloved podcast, I must say, I enjoy nice, short, good podcasts. I am coming into the party with a blaze. Send me something free, like a book, how about Tim's favorite, since he obviously enjoyed giving away his water thingy:) I am a campus minister in Tallahassee, FL @ a real football school, Florida State University. That Clayton guy you guys talked about last week is one of my closest friends. Peace.
